Honda Fit and Honda CRV named Best Used Cars by Consumer Reports
March 28th, 2012
In this year’s annual April automotive Consumer Reports (CR) issue, the magazine lists several 2007 vehicle models that held-up well and those that went bad over a five-year period. CR had their readers record how many problems their vehicle had during its’ first year as well as in its’ fifth year, and averaged how many problems rose for each vehicle, per every 100 vehicles.
Historically, Consumer Reports’ April issue breaks down each vehicle by first impressions and how things are in the early going. This can prove to be a helpful resource for many drivers, but at the same time counter-productive for others. While Consumer Reports gives great in-depth analysis of each-vehicle, their annual report lacks long-term analysis that car buyers would prefer to first impressions. Until now.
When all the smoke settled and the data was all laid out, two 2007 Honda vehicles were left standing; the Honda Fit and Honda CR-V. This may not seem like a big deal, but when a car manufacturer has 40% of the top 5 and none in the bottom 5, that’s something to brag about!
Howdy Honda has many of the best used cars in Austin, including used Honda Fit & used Honda CR-V. Give us a quick call at 512-443-4300 or shoot us an email at howdy@howdyhonda.com and we’ll quickly help you get in a great used car.
