After three rounds of voting, the 2022 North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year have been declared. A jury of 50 motoring journalists from across Canada and the United States decided all of the winners.

Another jury vote has decided the finalists for the 2022 North American Car of the Year, Truck of the Year and Utility Vehicle of the Year awards.

Any Honda Jazz buyers who want a more distinctive look might be interested in the new EX Style trim grade.

Honda’s latest touring motorcycle is the NT1100. It takes the steel frame and twin-cylinder engine from the CRF1100L Africa Twin adventure bike, then combines them with aerodynamic bodywork and a suspension set-up that’s optimised for on-road use.

Toyota is still the world’s most valuable automotive brand, according to the latest Best Global Brands study by Interbrand.

Production of the second-generation NSX will soon come to an end. To mark the occasion, Acura has created an enhanced Type S edition which is now the only available version.

An enhanced version of the Acura (in North America) / Honda (everywhere else) NSX GT3 is being offered to customer racing teams for the 2022 season. Named NSX GT3 Evo22, it features numerous updates.

Honda and British company 5Four Motorcycles have collaborated to create a special version of the CB1000R. Unsurprisingly, the result is called the Honda CB1000R 5Four.

Following a second round of voting, the top three finalists for each of this year’s World Car Awards have been named.

According to Honda, the all-new third-generation HR-V compact SUV benefits from the brand’s latest “seamless, clean design philosophy”. Although the unremarkable styling is neat enough, it loses the previous model’s distinctive chunky proportions, bold surfacing and pronounced coupé-like side glasshouse.

Honda has introduced what is essentially an all-new version of its Vision 110 scooter. Compared to the previous model, virtually every major component is different.

Honda has comprehensively updated its MSX125 for 2021. To emphasise the changes, this compact motorcycle is now known as the MSX125 Grom in Europe.

Rather optimistically, the latest Best Global Brands report by Interbrand is subtitled ‘A New Decade of Possibility’. On the face of it, such hopefulness might be understandable, given that the total value of the world’s top 100 brands rose by 9 percent year-on-year. However, in these extremely unsettled times, the combined result masks some dramatic ups and downs.

Honda’s CB125F entry-level motorcycle has been completely revised for 2021.

Honda’s new CB-F Concept should have appeared in public at this year’s Osaka and Tokyo motorcycle shows. For obvious reasons those events were cancelled, so the bike has been revealed online instead.

Honda has added two new Type R models to its Civic line-up. If the familiar GT variant doesn’t appeal, then customers can now opt for the slightly subtler Sport Line or the more extreme Limited Edition.

Cars like the new Civic Sport Line might be ‘all show and no go’, but their combination of purposeful looks and ordinary engines is popular with many customers. That’s perfectly understandable, because not everyone wants high performance (or the associated running costs).
