All-New Honda LogR™ Datalogging App Helps Type R Drivers Improve Their Skills with Exclusive In-Depth Driving Data
TORRANCE, California, Feb. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — One of the key features of the updated 2020 Honda Civic Type R is an all-new datalogging app designed to provide Type R drivers with data and scoring information that improves driving skill when driving on the track or other closed courses. A new video from Honda showcases the capabilities of the new LogR™ smartphone app as a driver hot-laps the Streets of Willow in Rosamond, California.
Drivers interact with Honda LogR™ through three main functions: A Performance Monitor provides vehicle information to the driver on the Display Audio screen, while Log Mode records lap times on the track. Finally, the Auto Score function encourages smooth driving by monitoring braking, acceleration and steering, and generating a “driving smoothness” score using proprietary algorithms developed by Honda with the help of professional Honda drivers.
While driving, all interaction with Honda LogR™ is through the vehicle’s Display Audio screen. Both Log Mode and Auto Score also offer more in-depth analysis when the phone is unplugged from the vehicle, including previous drives, performance traces and replays using GPS mapping and detailed vehicle information.
Unlike third-party datalogging apps, LogR™ features exclusive access to the Type R’s onboard computer, delivering more in-depth detail on the vehicle’s performance than aftermarket systems that’s only available through the vehicle’s factory onboard computer.
The new LogR™ app is designed to work exclusively with the 2020 Type R, for both iPhone® and Android™ users. The app is expected to be available for download sometime this spring.

LULAC & NCOA Join Forces in 2020
WASHINGTON, Feb. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) today announced an unprecedented new partnership with the National Council on Aging (NCOA) to offer a wide range of life-changing benefits to the growing number of Latino seniors and adults with disabilities throughout the United States.
“LULAC is extremely pleased and excited to form this new relationship with such a respected and well-known organization because we share a similar vision of creating a just and caring society in America,” said Sindy Benavides, National Chief Executive Officer. “A partner such as NCOA enables LULAC to help ensure that millions more older adults, adultos mayores, in our community living with disabilities and those with limited economic means are made aware of vital benefits, which will help them remain healthy and enjoy a better quality of life,” she added.
“NCOA and LULAC have more than 160 years of combined experience and are two of the nation’s oldest and most respected organizations serving two of the fastest-growing demographics in America,” said Anna Maria Chávez, NCOA Executive Vice President and Chief Growth Officer. “This partnership leverages NCOA’s broad experience with LULAC’s deep roots in the Latino community and will help millions of Latinos to age well, with dignity and economic security.”
Through the partnership, LULAC and NCOA will offer information and assistance in connecting Latinos who qualify for one or more of the following benefits programs: Medicare Part D Extra Help/Low-Income Subsidy, Medicare Savings Programs, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid, Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), State Pharmaceutical Assistance Programs, and Supplemental Security Income.
“This is a very exciting announcement that offers hope for older Latinos in the United States and Puerto Rico, many of them facing very challenging times economically,” says Elia Mendoza, National Vice-President for the Elderly. “These benefits are especially welcome news for more than 8.1 million Latinos who are caring for a family member 65-plus or Latino seniors who live alone, 15% men and 23% women,” adds Mendoza.
Recent research shows that older adults in the United States have experienced unprecedented growth in the past several decades, with Latinos representing the fastest-growing segment. In 2010, 2.9 million Latinos in the U.S. were aged 65 or older, a number projected to reach 17.5 million (19.8% of 65+ population) by 2050.1
“LULAC’s mission includes serving Latino boomers who are now 60 years of age or more as well as other, younger adults facing the challenge of disabilities in their lives and feeling alone or uncertain about what to do or where to turn,” said Benavides.
“NCOA and LULAC have been trusted friends in communities across our country for decades, and we are proud to join together at a time when the income equity gap in the United States is the largest in modern history and the need to address it has never been greater,” said Chávez.
