THE 2015 Honda Fit, Accord and CR-V have been named in the 10 Best Family Cars list compiled by experts at Parents magazine and Edmunds.com.
The three family-friendly Honda vehicles -- each earning the top crashworthiness ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) and equipped with a standard rear-view camera -- were selected out of hundreds of models for excelling in the key areas of safety, convenience features, performance and value.
The Accord was recognised as one of the top sedans for families for the third straight year. The Accord features sophisticated styling, fuel-efficient powertrains and advanced technology features like the available LaneWatchª display and a standard multi-angle rear-view camera. With safety a top shopping consideration for families, the Accord shines by earning a TOP SAFETY PICK rating from IIHS and a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in its New Car Assessment Program (NCAP).
The spacious, fuel-efficient and versatile 2015 Honda Fit was chosen as one of the best budget cars on the annual list. The all-new 2015 Honda Fit is even more of a standout choice in the sub-compact segment with its small-on-the-outside, big-on-the-inside packaging and incredibly versatile second-row Magic Seat®. The Fit features a fresh and modern design, a sporty and efficient engine, plus a highly versatile interior loaded with equipment essential for urban driving, including a standard rearview camera and Bluetooth® hands-free connectivity. Occupant safety features for the 2015 Honda Fit are further enhanced through the use of Honda's next-generation Advanced Compatibility Engineeringª (ACEª) body structure, helping Fit earn a TOP SAFETY PICK rating from IIHS and a 5-Star Overall Vehicle Score from National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in its New Car Assessment Program (NCAP).
The 2015 CR-V, also recognized as one of the best crossovers for families, received the most significant mid-cycle redesign in its history, with a new direct-injected EarthDreamsª Technology i-VTEC® engine and continuously variable transmission (CVT) to improve performance and fuel efficiency1. A new suite of Honda Sensingª safety and driver-assistive features, available on the Touring trim, contribute to the vehicle's TOP SAFETY PICK+ rating from IIHS. Additionally, the CR-V features significantly enhanced exterior and interior styling, while a long list of new family-friendly standard and available features brings a new level of sophistication to America's top-selling SUV.
