For a whole host of reasons, Honda pre-owned vehicles are some of the most coveted and reliable pre-owned vehicles in the entire industry. Consumers trust the brand, mostly because these vehicles are known to hold up quite well over time, and that means customers looking to sell or trade in their three-year-old Honda cars are going to be very pleasantly surprised by just how much residual value those machines have managed to maintain.

The 2015 Honda Fit and 2015 Honda CR-V project to be especially good at holding their value over time, as Kelley Blue Book recently handed out Best Resale Value awards to both models. Specifically, the Fit was named Best Resale Value: Subcompact Car, while the CR-V was named Best Resale Value: Top 10.

"The Fit is a premium small car with a healthy appetite for passengers and cargo, representing tremendous value well beyond its exterior footprint," said David Hendley, assistant vice president of sales at American Honda Motor Co., Inc. in a press release. "It's great to see the all-new Fit, our brand's entry model, join the much-honored CR-V among KBB.com's Best Resale Value Award winners this year."

Consumers should love this just as much as Hendley does, because it means more money when they're ready to sell, or more value from a trade-in when it comes time to buy a new Honda vehicle. At the end of the day, that's what really matters. Cars may depreciate in value the older they get, but some, like the new CR-V and Fit, depreciate more slowly than others.
