COLLEGE PLACE, Wash. - Aug. 21, 2015 - PRLog -- Walla Walla Valley Honda is excited to announce that another Walla Wallan will be enjoying the fuel-efficient and sporty 2016 Honda HR-V crossover. Jim Sanders, owner of Public House 124, scored a hole-in-one on the 8th hole at Walla Walla Valley Country Club during the Walla Walla Valley Chamber of Commerce's Classic Golf Tournament on July 8th.
Walla Walla Valley Country Club was hailed as the Best New Golf Course for 2009 by Golf Magazine and played host to the four-player scramble in July. The event was sponsored by local businesses in cooperation with the Walla Walla Valley Chamber of Commerce, with different organizations providing fun and unique prizes for attendees.
In addition to the main tournament, the event featured a putting contest and an awards dinner with prizes from participating sponsors.
Readers unfamiliar with the HR-V should know that it's the latest new Honda model on the market, debuting this year and providing an alternative option to the popular CR-V and Pilot SUVs. This compact crossover has seating for up to five and features some of the best standard amenities in its class, including a multi-angle rearview camera and Bluetooth for phone and audio.
Much of the HR-V's appeal can be found under the hood, where its 1.8L four-cylinder engine offers 141 hp and 127 lb-ft of torque while providing up to 35 mpg on the highway. Drivers have their choice of front- or all-wheel drive as well, giving the HR-V an edge over many of its small hatchback competitors, and now there will be one more in the Walla Walla area thanks to Jim Sanders' golf skills.
For more information on the event or to see the 2016 Honda HR-V firsthand with a test drive, readers can contact the sales team at Walla Walla Valley Honda. Their full-service dealership is located at 1240 Southeast Commercial Drive in College Place and features the full lineup of brand new Honda vehicles as well as a diverse selection of used cars, trucks, SUVs, and minivans.
