(prHWY.com) July 26, 2011 - Union, NJ -- Severe and unfortunate weather events have caused a delay in vehicle production with foreign automakers, but progress is definitely being made. Honda, being one of the companies affected, is slowly recovering from the negative series of events. Sales team members at Newark Honda dealers like Planet Honda are happy to see positive improvements.
Consumers shopping for a Honda in New Jersey will be happy to learn that the car company is beginning to see increased sales - thanks to none other than the Honda Fit. Last month, Honda Fit sales totaled 4,912 units - an increase of 20 percent. This statistic is undoubtedly a reflection of U.S. consumers' need for fuel-efficient models in an attempt to battle rising gas prices.
Regardless of rising fuel prices, sales team members at Honda dealers like Planet Honda are happy that the Fit has proven to be a hit among consumers, thus helping Honda sales remain somewhat strong against the competition. According to Edmunds.com, the Fit has impressive cargo room and cabin versatility, a spacious backseat, is fun to drive, has excellent visibility, and offers good fuel economy - a combination that consumers cannot ignore.
The base model is equipped with a 1.5L four-cylinder engine that produces 117 horsepower and achieves a fuel economy of up to 27 city/33 hwy mpg. Consumers who decide to purchase the Fit will also sleep easy knowing that the model comes standard with useful features such as side/curtain airbags, stability control, traction control, and MP3 player connectivity.
New Jersey Honda shoppers who are interested in the best-selling Fit - or who want to learn more about vehicle availability - are encouraged to visit their favorite dealership like Planet Honda to consult a sales team member.
