Design Process of Honda EVs A new video offers a first-ever look at the Honda VR Design Studios in Los Angeles, revealing how Honda is leveraging advanced virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality technology to fast track the development of new Honda vehicles. VR has quickly become a critical tool for Honda designers in the development of future mobility products, including electric vehicles (EVs), and Honda continues to expand use of these tools in L.A. and Japan.

All-New 2023 Honda CR-V Wins Coveted Car and Driver 10Best Award January 17, 2023
"The CR-V is a well-rounded package that punches way above its weight on multiple levels," said the editors at Car and Driver. "That impression starts as soon as you close the door and start rolling, as the structure of the new CR-V immediately feels tight, hushed, and substantial. The body shell is more rigid, and there's more sound insulation in the cowl, firewall, and instrument panel areas. Once you're underway, the new CR-V delivers the kind of smoothness you expect from a more expensive vehicle. The steering is willing and pairs to a chassis that cuts a steady arc through turns. The interior feels rich, too, with an attractive styling theme shared with the Honda Civic, a 10Best Cars winner. The Sport models feature a hybrid system that delivers up to 40 mpg combined; they're our most recommended versions of this much-recommended vehicle." "The Honda CR-V is America's best-selling CUV of the past quarter century1, and the all-new 2023 Honda CR-V raises the bar with a rugged and sophisticated design and a sportier and more capable driving experience," said Lance Woelfer, assistant vice president Honda National Sales for American Honda Motor Co., Inc. "For the editors of Car and Driver to honor CR-V, Accord and Civic with prestigious 10Best awards in the same year is an incredible honor for the entire Honda family." READ MORE | ||||||

Spring, also referred to as pothole season, can be tough on vehicles. The fluctuating temperatures and freeze and thaw pattern from melting snow and ice seep into cracks in the pavement creating potholes of all sizes. Hitting a pothole can ruin car tires and throw off the wheel alignment. If your vehicle is traveling fast and/or the pothole is deep, the impact could damage the suspension, destroy the shocks/struts, demolish bumper, bend the axle, wreck the muffler or damage the frame. If you hit a pole or seven, give us a call to inspect you’re vehicle and reset alignment if needed.
