Honda Australia and Australia’s largest performing arts centre, Arts Centre Melbourne, have today announced a one-year Official Partnership.

 

“We see our partnership with Arts Centre Melbourne to be a perfect brand fit because we are both in the business of bringing the power of dreams to life. In addition, this partnership provides extensive year-round reach into the community through Arts Centre Melbourne’s 2.3 million visitors,” said Kevin Lillie, Honda Australia’s Senior Marketing Manager.

 

“We’re delighted to be working collaboratively with Honda, a company with a proud history of innovation and a collaborative approach to business. The partnership is creative in terms of application, but it also provides a strong financial component which will contribute directly to Arts Centre Melbourne’s performances and activities,” said Judith Isherwood, Chief Executive, Arts Centre Melbourne.

 

The partnership is multi faceted, including activations in and around the major Arts Centre venues, in addition to specific activities aligned to key Arts Centre productions.

 

Arts Centre Melbourne and Honda will use the shared ideas of accessibility, innovation, passion and fun to develop imaginative activity that extends the Arts Centre Melbourne visitor experience and builds a robust customer base for both organisations.

Honda CR-V Hits Number One

by Honda on May 20, 2013

The all-new Honda CR-V is the number one selling petrol medium SUV in Australia YTD.

 

The CR-V, launched in late 2012, has sold 4,737 units for the first four months of 2013 and is proving to be the first choice for buyers in the growing segment.

 

“The CR-V has been a huge success with customers looking for an SUV with outstanding packaging, performance and value for money,” said Honda Australia Director Mr. Stephen Collins. “We have also just announced that the CR-V will feature a new variant to go on sale in June this year that will feature our Advanced Driver Assist System (ADAS) that we launched in our all-new Accord this week.

 

“We are confident the CR-V with ADAS will boost sales even further and ensure the CR-V remains at the top of medium SUV buyer’s shopping lists,” Mr. Collins said.

 

The Advanced Driver Assist System features state-of-the-art safety technology such as Lane Keep Assist System (LKAS), Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) and Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC).

 

ADAS is designed to complement the driver, not to replace their input. ADAS contributes to active safety, while ensuring that the driver remains in control of the vehicle at all times.
