New York, NY (1888PressRelease) May 14, 2016 - Plaza Honda is giving a free 3 year lease to a New York mother who gave birth in a car while in route to her local hospital. Beth Newell, of Mamaroneck, NY brought a happy, healthy baby girl into the world in the back seat of a Honda Fit on May 1st, 2016. Shortly after, Newell took to Twitter with a photo and the following, " ( @ ) Honda, earlier today I gave birth to my daughter in the back of a Honda Fit dot It is a mess dot Can I have a free car?"

Plaza Honda, of Brooklyn's Plaza Auto Mall, heard the mother's call and reached out to the family of (now) four via Twitter. "When we saw this story, we knew right away that this was an amazing opportunity to help this growing family," said Christopher Gonzalez, General Sales Manager of Plaza Honda. "As a family owned dealership, we are always looking for ways to support our local community and this is just such a feel-good story, there's no way we couldn't get involved".

Plaza Honda will be presenting the family with a brand new 2016 Honda CR-V at a Giveaway Event at 2PM on Wednesday May 18th. To complement the joyous event, the dealership is offering $500 off a lease or finance of any new Honda to families who bring their baby or child and buy a car at the Brooklyn dealership during the week of May 16th - May 22nd. They are calling the sales event "Baby Week at Plaza Honda" in honor of the special occasion.

Beth Newell and her husband Peter are looking forward to attending the event and picking up their much-needed new vehicle. "We still can't believe this is all happening. It's such a great surprise and couldn't have come at a more convenient time for us," says Beth. Their own car had died the week before their daughter's birth and the Honda Fit they were driving was a loaner from Beth's sister.

As of Thursday May 12th Beth Newell's tweet has been retweeted more than 19,000 times and liked over 32,000 times. A great deal of the twitterverse has voiced its support for this young mother and her unique story with notable tweets such as: " ( @ ) bethnew ( @ ) ItsReallyJordan ( @ ) Honda if they don't give you a car I'm trading in my Civic" and " ( @ ) bethnew ( @ ) Honda Best tweet this year dot And a sure PR coup for Honda dot Do the right thing, Honda!"
