Honda Introduces The All-new 2015 Fit
Honda unveiled the all-new 2015 Fit at the 2014 NAIAS. The new Fit is completely redesigned from the ground up to deliver an unparalleled combination of style, interior space, fun-to-drive performance and fuel efficiency plus leading-edge safety and vehicle connectivity.
The 2015 Fit debuts with a sleek, modern and sporty exterior style. A more aggressive front fascia showcases a new grille and headlight design. A strong character line runs along the side of the Fit, emphasizing the vehicle’s aerodynamic profile. Larger 16-inch tires outfitted with a new 5-spoke wheel design give the Fit a planted and sporty stance. In the back, rear reflectors and LED taillights run along the hatch with a chrome tailgate garnish and rear diffuser, all contributing to the Fit’s more substantial and dynamic appearance.
Honda to Begin Sales in Japan of the Vezel
Honda Motor Co. Ltd. will today begin sales in Japan of the Vezel, a new vehicle that fuses the dynamic qualities of an SUV, the elegance of a coupe and the functionality of a minivan and will deliver excellent fuel economy. A four-wheel Drive option will be available for both hybrid and petrol variants.
The exterior form of the Vezel fuses together SUV-like stability and coupe-like styling to create an emotional design. On the inside there is a high quality feel with coupe-like personal space for the front seats and, thanks to Honda’s original centre-tank layout, this model benefits from the brand’s ‘magic seats’, as well as a large cargo space beyond what people might expect from the compact exterior form.
NSX Prototype set for debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed
The ground-breaking NSX supercar, powered by an innovative three-motor Sport Hybrid Super Handling All-Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) system, and set for launch in 2015, will take centre stage at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed (27-29 June) when it takes on the world’s most famous hill climb in front of a capacity crowd. The Festival will provide visitors with a rare opportunity to see and hear the all-new version of a supercar whose forebears gained iconic status around the world.
The NSX has a long-standing relationship with the Festival of Speed. In 1993, at the time of the first Festival, a fleet of 10 NSX were showcased at Goodwood. Launched in 1990, the original NSX was already known as a ground-breaking exotic car, delivering super performance and handling, without compromise in usability and ergonomics. Driven by UK journalists, the 10 NSX made a thrilling impression on visitors to the first Festival of Speed. More than two decades have passed and the new NSX is making its return to Goodwood. It will again open the door for a new era of the Super Sports model and Honda sees the Festival as the perfect event to demonstrate its flagship supercar for the first time in Europe.
