After a dearth of new models, Honda is showing the UK public it is coming back in force with a Goodwood Festival of Speed display of its entirely new range.
Star cars will include the new Honda NSX supercar due on sale at the end of 2015, the Civic Type-R being launched next month, plus new Jazz supermini and HR-V crossover reaching dealers in August and the revised Civic and CR-V which arrived in Honda dealerships in March.
Philip Crossman, managing director at Honda UK, commented: "We are incredibly excited to have the new full product line up for 2015 at the Goodwood Festival of Speed. This is the moment Honda UK has been waiting for the last five years - we are back. And we are back with a bang."
As well as the static display of the full 2015 range line up for the first time, those coming to Goodwood’s Moving Motor Show on June 25 have the chance to get behind the wheel of the new Civic and CR-V, piloting the cars around the famous hill climb circuit.
Honda is also offering a limited number of passenger rides in the 300bhp Civic Type R. These rides will be done on a first-come, first-serve basis; however, enthusiasts can enter a competition on the Honda website to win one of these exclusive rides.
