INSIDE RALPH

The automotive industry, including Ralph Honda, is experiencing significant impacts due to various global and national circumstances. These include the microchip shortage, port congestion, transportation delays, the COVID-19 pandemic, and staffing shortages. These challenges are forcing the industry to innovate and adapt to new ways of doing business.

Despite the shortage of vehicles in stock, Ralph Honda still offers a wide selection of new and pre-owned vehicles. They have access to Hondas currently in production and those in transit. The team is ready to assist customers in finding the right vehicle and managing the logistics of delivery.

Lease customers are advised to plan ahead as their current lease ends. It may take additional time to secure the next Honda, and starting the process 3-12 months before the lease maturity date is recommended for the best experience.

For those interested in purchasing their leased vehicle, contact the business office. Sean McCarthy and Jim Hunter are available to assist with this process.

Ralph Honda encourages customers to connect with them for assistance with vehicle selection or lease options. Live agents are available via Voice, Text, or Chat.

The all-new 2022 Honda Civic Sedan and Hatchback have earned the IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating. This accolade highlights the Civic's superior safety performance, including its front crash prevention system. The Civic continues to set the standard for small car safety.
