When it comes to car shopping, researching is an important (yet time-consuming) part of the process. At Clinton Honda, we want our customers from Annandale, Clinton, Somerville, NJ; and Easton, PA to have a car-buying process that is both easy and informative. That’s why we take the time to write detailed Research and Review pages on our all models, including the new 2017 Honda HR-V. Check out this new page on our website and you can learn about the LX, EX, and EX-L and all of their performance, safety, and standard features all in one place without ever leaving your couch! Once you’re ready, schedule your test drive with us.

Most of us love the extra hour of sleep when we get to “fall back” for Daylight Savings this time of year. However, there are a few precautions that you should take to ensure your commute home, in the dark, is safe.

Start off by dimming your instrument panel and dashboard lights. Think about oncoming traffic at night, the headlights can be blinding sometimes. Lights shining elsewhere, even in your vehicle can be distracting and harmful to your focus. Turn down all of the interior lights before you head out at night so that you can see the road and other drivers clearly.

Next, aim your headlights. A lot of drivers forget that their headlights might be aligned incorrectly. If they’re not aligned to look directly in front of you, they could be blinding oncoming drivers and those in front of you.

Lastly, before you head out, wipe your windshield with newspaper. This will help you eliminate the occurrence of glare from other driver’s headlights. What may look fine during your morning commute might be full of streaks and smudges in the evening. Taking these three things into account before driving will ensure a much safer trip.

For 25 years, Honda has supported the annual Ride for Kids™ event in Los Angeles. For this year’s event, more than 600 motorcycle riders and supporters, including those from Honda’s operations in Torrance worked together to raise more than $220,000 to support the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation (PBTF).

This is one cause that Honda has stood strongly behind for so long for good reason. The PBTF conducts research and trials to prevent the development of brain tumors in children. Ride for Kids™ is the most successful and longest running fundraising event, beginning at the American Honda Motor Co., campus in Torrance.

“The Honda team is passionate about Ride for Kids and this event is a highlight for our associates each year,” said Chuck Boderman, vice president of the Honda Motorcycle Division. “Sharing our love of motorsports is second only to making a difference for those families who could use some hope and help.”

If you would like to donate to this cause or see if there is any way you can help, check out the Ride for Kids website.

Sometimes change can be scary, but when Honda is behind the ideas, you can almost guarantee it’ll be great. Most recently, they redesigned the interior of the popular CR-V crossover. It now has all new materials, making the seats more comfortable, an updated audio system display, and more leg room so everyone is comfortable. Check out the video below to see what you can expect in the 2017 Honda CR-V

Every parent wants just one thing, their children to be safe. But once they hit the exciting age of 16, that seems like an almost impossible feat. Wouldn’t it be nice to know that at least the vehicle they’re driving is working to keep them safe on their way to and from school? That’s why Edmunds.com, and we at Clinton Honda, suggest the 2016 Honda Accord.

The Accord received recognition on Edmunds.com’s list of 10 Best Cars for Teen Drivers thanks to its spacious interior, use of high-quality materials, and its safety and convenience features, that you can read more about on our Research and Review page. Another factor that put the 2016 honda Accord ahead of competitors is its IIHS Top Safety Pick+ rating when equipped with Honda Sensing.

Honda also hit a home run in the Accord with teens thanks to features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. But really shined in parent’s eyes thanks to the new Honda Sensing package which is available for all trim levels.

Stop by to learn more or to take the 2016 Honda Accord out for a test drive and explore all the features first hand.
