Best car of 2026

5 out of 5 starsby Vicky S on 07/24/2025

The new 2026 CRV EXL AWD is the best car I have driven in years. Smooth acceleration between gears, virtually no road or wind noise. The comfort of the seats is amazing in front and back, along with plenty of room between passenger and driver. I love the new heat and a/c vents, the power behind the fan is so powerful it cools and heats the car up very quickly. Special thank you to my dealer Jonas Severino. So knowledgeable, pleasant, courteous and professional thought out my whole purchase. He located a car with a specific color I was looking for in transit and it was delivered that night to the dealership. Went above and beyond to help me.
  • Vicky, we're so pleased our team provided you with a transparent and supportive buying experience. Thanks for giving a shout out to Sev for his superb assistance. We'd love to work with you again some day!

    5 out of 5 starsby Erin Marafioti on 09/30/2022

    This past week I bought my first brand new car. This was a big decision for me, and something I have been working towards for a long time. Walking in, Anthony Allegra at Lia Honda was the first to come right up to me and helped me find the best fit for a new car. Throughout the whole process, he was very honest and made me feel comfortable through the whole process. I cannot thank you enough and the team for helping me throughout this process!
    • Erin, thanks so much for the 5-star review and congratulations on your first new car ever! We are absolutely thrilled Anthony helped make your experience pleasant and accommodating, especially for your first time. Your complete satisfaction is what we're here for.

  • Easy sales experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Brian on 09/26/2022

    My second time purchasing from this dealer and a positive experience both times. 2nd time with Rob Dawes as salesman; 1st time with Brendan Shields for financing. Both clearly and directly answered all questions and made sure that I understood everything. Very responsive to my requests; with both I felt that I was in a dialogue rather than being pushed. Both were friendly and polite to my transracial family. I will be back next time.
    • Hi, Brian! Thanks so much for your positive review and congratulations on the new vehicle! We're thrilled to know that Rob and Brendan made this trip to the dealership a great success. The whole team wants to wish you all the happy adventures and pleasant journeys your heart desires. Feel free to reach out to us if there is ever any assistance we may provide. Until we meet again, drive safe and have fun!

    I am a long time Honda customer, and purchased a vehicle at Lia Honda in 2017. My goal is to keep this car on the road for as long as possible. Steve Smith has shared this goal with me and provides advice and quality service. He makes himself available anytime I’m in the Service Dept to discuss any matter of concern. I appreciate Steve’s professionalism, extensive knowledge about Honda products, and guidance. My vehicle has over 175,000 miles on it and is going strong thanks to Steve.

  • Thrilled

    5 out of 5 starsby Cookie Monster on 08/20/2022

    Ernest Walton was very helpful when I came into the service department for my appointment to help me find the AirPod that was hidden underneath my passenger front seat. Ernest spent quality time looking for it then he sent my vehicle into the back, where the staff took my seat out and found the AirPod. I was so thrilled!

  • Steve Smith Super Service

    5 out of 5 starsby Steve D on 08/18/2022

    I called for service due to a check engine light appearing on my daughters vehicle I was told to bring it right in. I get to the dealership and met Steve Smith who was one of the best service reps I ever met. He was honest and up front, fast, knowledgeable and got the car done earlier than expected. He also fixed an acceleration problem without lifting a wrench. My daughter somehow got her floor mat jammed under and around the gas pedal. Thanks Steve no one likes bringing a car in for service but you made that a great experience !
    • Steve, Thank you for that awesome review and for sharing your 5-star experience with us! Our goal is always to provide a seamless, satisfying experience for our customers and it looks like Steve did just that. He'll be delighted to hear you think so highly of him. Please don't hesitate to give us a call the next time your family has an automotive need. We'd be glad to help! Safe travels!
