The 2016 Civic lineup brings a freshened face to this favorite vehicle, boasting bold new design and a host of cutting-edge amenities—and reminding vehicle owners once again why drivers the world over love the Honda Civic.
Kelley Blue Book has worked hard to become a trusted resource in the automotive industry. Striving for excellence in every aspect, KBB has earnestly endeavored to distinguish its awards program from the many other “Car of the Year” awards out there. Rather than simply designating superior vehicles, KBB goes the extra mile to fully inform drivers and help them find good value as they search for a new vehicle.
KBB’s awards platform is an action-oriented program, aimed at truly benefiting consumers as it recognizes outstanding automobiles.
In assessing vehicle values, Kelley Blue Book leverages more than 90 years of expertise.
KBB’s 2016 “Best Buy Awards” process began more than a year ago, when automotive brands first began introducing their new vehicle models for 2016.
In assessing the new models, vehicle evaluators drove hundreds of automobiles and reported their findings, with Kelley Blue Book analysts also gathering detailed vehicle data on each award contender, including:
* Comprehensive pricing
* Vehicle sales
* Maintenance
* Depreciation costs
* Financing
* Insurance
* Fuel costs
KBB professionals performed in-depth comparison tests in the major vehicle classes, pitting comparable vehicles against one another in an array of driving scenarios.
In the end, the editorial staff at KBB nominated 49 automobiles in 12 categories to vie for the top honors.
In choosing the winners, different factors were measured among the finalists, including:
* Handling
* Driving performance
* Safety system operation
* Parking difficulty
* Ease/difficulty of entering and exiting the vehicle
* Ease/difficulty of loading cargo
* Electronic driving aids
* Infotainment system operation
* Hauling and towing tests, where applicable
