Honda Fit is Among the Most Fuel Efficient Hatchbacks of 2010

2010-03-12T01:29:00.000-08:00

Hatchbacks have become the hot choice of the season thanks to their sporty styling, zippy engines and an MSRP that is generally quite affordable. Rick Case Honda, the leading Honda dealership near Cleveland, feels one of the main reasons for the huge popularity of compact hatchback is the fuel efficiency. The market is crowded with compact hatchbacks that deliver you more than 30 mpg combined, but the most fuel efficient compact hatchback is the 2010 Honda Fit hatchback with an impressive 28 mpg in the city and 31 mpg on the highway, as per the Most Fuel Efficient Hatchbacks of 2010 list prepared by Autotropolis, a leading and trusted online resource for new and used car research.

The 2010 Honda Fit offers value and versatility in a fun-to-drive and fuel-efficient five-door package. It does not demand an earth-shattering price and is environment friendly. Though it is compact on the outside, it is spacious and multifunctional inside. Its exclusive 60/40 split rear Magic Seat offers multiple seating and cargo-carrying configurations - tall object mode, long object mode and utility mode - in addition to the standard five-passenger mode. It is available in two well equipped trims - Fit and Sport. The Honda Fit has received multiple awards including the prestigious Car and Driver Magazine's 2009 "10 Best" list and Kelly Blue Book's "Top 10 Green Cars" and "Coolest New Cars Under $18,000" awards.

The Honda Civic passes the test of TIME!

2009-11-05T22:00:00.001-08:00

Your very own Honda Civic has made it to the elite parking lot! Ranked by the prestigious TIME Magazine among the "dozen most important cars of all time," the Honda Civic has been immortalized in automobile history.

According to TIME, Honda Civic is "the first car out of Japan to prove that the country was going to be a serious player. Reliable and well finished, it also made economic sense to buy a Civic, which outperformed gas-guzzling American rivals during the oil crises of the 1970s."

Everyone at Rick Case Honda is thrilled at this achievement. For those looking for a new vehicle, there is all the more reason now to choose a Civic. You will be driving away in a car that has surpassed the tests of TIME!

All New Fit Hybrid Coming Soon

2009-10-06T21:18:00.001-07:00

The hugely popular Honda Fit Euclid will become even more fuel-efficient soon! Rick Case Honda is pleased to announce that Honda is all set to launch a hybrid version of the Fit.

A five-door, five-passenger hatchback, the all new Fit Hybrid would sport an exterior look similar to that of the FCX Clarity and would be available at an affordable price, according to Honda. A new 1-liter-class engine is being developed for the new Fit Hybrid, and reports indicate that it would be sold for a considerably low price. The new Fit Hybrid, expected to take the formidable Toyota Prius head on, would presumably deliver a better fuel economy thanks to its lighter and more powerful batteries than the current nickel-metal hydride variety.

Meanwhile, the gas-powered Fit, equipped with a five-speed automatic transmission and a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine, has already earned the reputation of being one of the more fuel-efficient vehicles on US roads with an EPA data showing 27 mpg in city driving and 33 mpg on the highway. Honda projects to sell 100,000 Fit Hybrids in North American market.

The new advancements in technology and production systems would significantly reduce the Fit Hybrid's cost, which would make hybrid technology "available to one and all at affordable prices," the automaker says. Without a doubt, the Honda lineup will be even more "fit" with the addition of this new hybrid. Visit Rick Case Honda Cleveland for details on the new Fit Hybrid.

2010 Accord Crosstour CUV Revealed!

2009-09-10T23:37:00.000-07:00

Ending months of speculation, Honda has unveiled the 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour CUV - minus the specifications and price tag. With the new addition to the Accord line up, Honda is determined to tap into the shift in the light truck market and carve a niche in the crossover segment.

The 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour CUV's design language is by and large a mix of an SUV and a sedan to satiate the buyers who crave the sedan experience but want the practicality of an SUV. Rick Case Honda, the prime Honda dealer in Euclid is all set to welcome the newest member of the Accord family, which will go on sale in about a month. Keep in touch with your Euclid Rick Case Honda dealer to be among the first to receive information about all-new Accord Crosstour CUV!

Derived from the Accord Sedan, the Accord Crosstour maximizes car-like ride and refinement, yet maintains capabilities consistent with an SUV's increased ride height. The Accord Crosstour's styling builds on the Accord's familiar character lines and adds a bolder front grille complemented by a lower-body appearance, wedge-shaped C-pillars and an aggressive rear stance. The flowing roofline narrows smoothly into the rear of the vehicle to create an aggressive-looking design, which conceals a unique cargo area that can adapt to large objects that exceed the capacity of a sedan.

Equipped with the basic characteristics of a sedan and an SUV, the 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour CUV will lead the Accord pack with regard to size and price.
