Honda has long remained one of the industry's leaders in design and engineering. It recently received three Car and Driver 10Best awards. The Honda Accord, the Honda Civic, and the Honda CR-V were all honored for the 2024 model year. This further demonstrates Honda's commitment to automotive excellence.

 
The prestigious Car and Driver 10Best award is pretty historic in its own right, but you'd be hard-pressed to find a person who thinks the Honda Accord has to work very hard to make the list year after year. The Accord is a "refined, dynamically engaging and affordable" sedan (according to Chief Brand Officer of Car and Driver), but it's also one of America's oldest sedans. It's actually the bestselling car in America for 50 years and counting. Today's celebration for the model is its 36th straight listing on the Car and Driver10Best list.

Having impressed 60 critics, the 2018 Honda Accord emerged as the 2018 North American Car of the Year. This award is given annually at the Detroit Auto Show, yet, it means much more than one-time critical acclaim. This coveted prize shows that the Accord's all-new style, tech, and performance represent the best of this year's sedans.

 

Honda is a recognized leader in the auto industry for safety technology. There are a number of innovative safety aids installed on many of Honda's cars. From the 2018 model year on, one useful safety feature that a vehicle may have is parking sensors. Parking sensors are typically located in the front and back of the Honda. When activated, they can help you park and safely maneuver to avoid hitting people, cars, and other objects. By helping you avoid accidents, parking sensors can also mitigate costly damage and repairs.
