Honda is supporting the Mt Druitt Police and the local community by adding a Honda ZR-V to the fleet for their community engagement programs, which aims to raise road safety awareness amongst the Aboriginal youth.
The Honda ZR-V is a striking, sophisticated, and sporty medium SUV and is a brand-new nameplate Honda Australia. It will be utilised to help establish a strong and lasting connection with the Aboriginal community in the Mount Druitt area.
The Honda ZR-V is equipped with up-to-date safety features including Honda SENSING as well as technological advancements like Honda Connect, wireless charger and Bose premium speaker sound system.
Honda Australia Director Ms Carolyn McMahon said, “This initiative is one that Honda Australia is proud to be supporting. Mt Druitt Police will continue to empower a younger generation about the importance of road safety, which aligns strongly with Honda’s brand vision of achieving zero fatalities in traffic accidents worldwide by 2050.”
This new addition to the fleet was launched on an important day for Aboriginal People, as the 13th of February marks apology day. Whereby a traditional smoking ceremony was conducted by a local aboriginal elder, 101-year-old Uncle Wes.
Inspector, Samuel Nelson stated how “This event doubled as the backdrop to unveil the newly acquired Mt Druitt PAC community engagement vehicle Honda ZR-V sponsored by Honda Australia.”
“The vehicle wrapped in Aboriginal livery will be used to promote Aboriginal, Pacifica and Youth related crime prevention strategies.”
This partnership allows Honda Australia to engage in a meaningful community development initiative by making a lasting impact on the lives of the Aboriginal youth in the Mt Druitt area.
