Default 2009 Hch

http://www.hondanews.com/categories/955/releases/4684

I first posted it in the wrong part of the forum.

It has some mild changes to the body, but more importantly it has available leather seating and now vehicle stability control.

There are several pictures of the 09 HCH, too, here:

Obviously, heated seats are a waste of energy, but does electronic stability control save gas or use more?

Electronic Stability Control is a safety feature that keeps the car in your control (when you begin to loses control) by modulating the brakes through the ABS, decreasing power output, and a bunch of other stuff I'm probably not aware of. I don't think it affects fuel economy.
