Our Houston, TX Honda Blog

It’s been two years since we learned that the Honda Civic Type R would finally cross the pond (how many years did that take?) to grace our roads, and it still hasn’t sunk in properly. We imagine it will, now that the 2017 model has finally been unveiled. Armed to the nines with a new engine, an exclusive manual transmission, and a metric trunk load of power, we imagine our enthusiast readers are feeling quite excited right now.

Around this time last year, the tenth generation Honda Civic sedan was arriving in dealerships across the country. Now, the Japanese automaker’s perennial compact car is having quite the run of success—one that’s set to grow with the addition of the sporty, efficient, and spacious 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback arriving now.

When it comes to top three models from a sales volume perspective, the Civic, Accord, and CR-V are among the most popular for the Honda brand. Since the CR-V went on sale in 1997, for example, over four million examples of the compact crossover have been produced. Now, the segment-leading CUV is entering its fifth generation.

Cars made by Honda are known for their lasting reliability, their ability to stand the test of time; but even by the Japanese automaker's standards, 40 years is a fairly lengthy amount of time to stay on the top of its game. Believe it or not, this month marks the fortieth anniversary of its flagship midsize sedan, the Honda Accord.

In the span of the past four decades (and nine model generations), the Honda Accord has no doubt undergone its fair share of changes, updates, and redesigns--but what hasn't seemed to change is how we as Americans feel…
