When summer hits Wisconsin, the open road becomes your playground. Whether you’re heading up north for a cabin weekend, exploring Door County, or planning a road trip out of state, your choice of vehicle can make a big difference. So what should you go for — an SUV or a sedan?
Let’s break down the pros and cons, and showcase the best Honda models for summer 2025.
🚙 Why Choose a Honda SUV for Summer?
1. Ample Room for Gear and People
Honda SUVs are built to haul everything from tents and grills to kayaks and beach bags. With split-folding rear seats, deep cargo areas, and available roof rails, space is never an issue.
2. Confident Capability
Need something that can handle gravel roads, sudden storms, or twisty highways? Many Honda SUVs come with available Real Time AWD, perfect for Wisconsin’s unpredictable terrain.
3. Adventure-Ready Tech
From Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ to Honda Sensing® safety features, Honda SUVs keep you connected and protected — even on the most remote trails.

2. Smooth, Comfortable Ride
Honda sedans offer a quiet, refined ride — perfect for long distances, coastal cruising, or downtown drives.
3. Easy to Maneuver
Sedans are ideal for navigating tight parking spots at beach towns, concerts, or city festivals.
