Why Are Hondas So Popular?

There are several reasons that Hondas of all types have become and remained extremely popular among American drivers.

Low Cost

Compared to other vehicles in their class, Hondas have a relatively low price tag.

Dealer-Provided Maintenance

Regular factory-recommended maintenance is the most reliable way to keep your Honda running at peak performance. Because each vehicle has its own maintenance needs, Honda develops schedules based on several factors to alert you to potential problems before they occur.

The simplicity of Honda’s dealer-provided maintenance ensures your car stays healthy for years to come.

Retain Market Value

Both the Honda Accord and Civic topped their respective classes in Edmunds’2018 Best Retained Value Awards. Earning this distinction means these models have the highest projected private party residual value five years following their launch.

Great Gas Mileage

When it comes to fuel economy, no other brand compares. Both the Honda Accord and Civic sit atop numerous fueleconomy rankings as the best of the best. The impressive fuel range is not only good news for the environment, but for your wallet as well.
