We get this question a lot here at Charlie's Honda, especially because of our snowy winters and somewhat rainy summers. The answer: undoubtedly, yes, as Honda CR-V is one of the most capable and safest compact SUVs around. See why right here!

For one, it's better equipped performance-wise than many other used cars, trucks, and SUVs here in coastal Maine. One explanation for that's the choice between 184-horsepower 2.4-liter I4 and 180-horsepower, 1.5-liter I4 engines, both of which offer plenty of power for getting around. Another's the CVT, belt- rather than gear-driven for higher…

For many of our Waterville, ME customers, the choice isn’t about deciding to go with a new vehicle or used one, but whether to go with a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle or a regular used one. The answer is not the same for every customer, but there are benefits to both and drivers will need to decide which option will suit their needs best. The sales team at Charlie’s Honda, located at 448 Western Avenue in Augusta, ME, will be happy to answer any of your questions on any of the used vehicles on our lot.

Shopping for your next vehicle can seem daunting as many customers think that they to have to make the trek to several dealerships before they can find the perfect automobile for them and their families, but that is not the truth. 

Big changes are in the works here at Charlie's Honda! We're currently in the process of refreshing and updating our Honda dealership in Augusta, ME. While these updates are still under construction, we're happy to share that we're revamping all our departments so that we can bring our customers an even greater dealership experience than before!

If you're looking to buy a used car, it's essential that you do your research and examine the vehicle carefully -- from bumper to bumper and roof to undercarriage. Of course, you'll also want to make sure that you purchase it from a trusted source such as our Augusta ME dealership. We offer a tremendous selection of used cars, trucks, and SUVs, including the elite models that are the Certified Pre-Owned Honda vehicles.

Here's a convenient checklist you can use in your used car search:

When you're shopping for your next vehicle, you might consider buying something from your dealership's used inventory. Depending on what you're looking for, that can be a great idea. You just need to make sure you find one that delivers genuine value.

Are you in the market for a new compact SUV because your current model just isn't cutting it for your daily commute or weekend adventures around Waterville and Lewiston, ME? If you want an innovative and sporty compact SUV for your future lease or purchase, the new 2018 Honda CR-V is a fantastic option and we have a wide range of trim levels to choose from within our new inventory here at Charlie's Honda. But what's so great about this Honda SUV?

You can't beat the savings of a used car. Driving a new car off the lot causes it to lose 10% of its value; after a year, it's lost another 10%. A used car has already taken these hits, getting more car for your buck. The problem is that sometimes with used cars, you can't always guarantee the quality of the vehicle. What if you want the savings of a used car but you also want an assurance of quality?

Whether you're shopping for a new or a pre-owned vehicle, you may be pleased to discover that it's not always necessary to pay full price. This is especially true if you shop with a dealership that is committed to delivering an exceptional experience. What better way to ensure that than by offering our prospective buyers and valued customers an opportunity to save on their next purchase?
