IT’S A BEST BUY BECAUSE:
The new 11th-generation Honda Civic gets a more subdued, sophisticated look and a generous helping of new safety and technology features, while continuing to offer outstanding practicality, refinement, and everyday driving fun.
VALUE IN CLASS
In a world moving toward crossover SUVs, the new Honda Civic feels more “car-like” than ever—and that’s a big part of its appeal. It’s a sensible daily commuter that manages to deliver an engaging, enthusiast-friendly driving personality, along with excellent all-around refinement.
IT’S A BEST BUY BECAUSE:
The Ridgeline offers outstanding comfort, convenience, and on-road driving dynamics for a pickup truck, along with a compelling array of clever technology and utility features.
VALUE IN CLASS
Ridgeline blends pickup-truck utility with carlike civility in a solid, sensible package. The light-duty design won’t suit hardcore truckers or extreme off-roaders, but should meet the needs of the vast majority of the pickup-buying public. What really secures the Ridgeline’s Best Buy status is its all-around refinement and impressive list of available comfort and convenience features.
