Just over a decade ago, owning a Honda Civic meant having style; it was trendy and a good car. Today, or at least until a few months ago, what the Civic represented was very different. It went from being a trendsetter to just one among many, seeing many of its competitors surpass it, prompting the need for a reaction.<\/p>\n
This is how designers and engineers at the Japanese company have worked hand in hand to make the 2016 Honda Civic<\/strong> a car that people can love again. Passionate design, turbo engines, and extensive equipment are the three keys to the Japanese compact car hoping for a revival in the hearts of its new buyers.<\/p>\n The first thing to highlight is its design. It’s not the typical Civic: the sharply designed front headlights with LED “whips,” taillights, and badges forming a pair of letter Cs are different from anything currently in the market. Furthermore, they gave a nod to sporty design, a four-door coupe, although it remains a sedan.<\/p>\n Okay, the interior of the Civic is not as elegant as the exterior, but it’s still well done. In terms of design, the Japanese, as always, have done a fantastic job in terms of functionality and ergonomics. Surprisingly, this time it wasn’t a simple design. The mix of textures and the play of “dimensions” create an interior that is both sober and technical, an experience that is certainly challenging to achieve.<\/p>\n On one side, we have the configurable dashboard, where we can see information from the music player, trip computer, and vehicle status, as well as operate some car function menus; all from a fairly intuitive interface with advanced graphics.<\/p>\n On the other hand, we find all the versatility of Honda in elements such as the central armrest, which offers storage capacity comparable to a larger SUV and different configurations for storing keys, cards, bottles, controllers, coins, or glasses. Everything fits.<\/p>\n At a more technical level, Honda provides us with an Android-based infotainment system, compatible with CarPlay and Android Auto.<\/p>\n Overall, the equipment of the new Honda Civic 2016<\/strong> is very complete. In addition to what has already been mentioned, it adds leather seats, a multifunctional steering wheel with cruise control, speed control, electric handbrake, navigation system, smart key, and a camera in the right side mirror.<\/p>\n Without a doubt, the crown jewel in the new Honda Civic is neither its design nor its equipment: it’s its engine.<\/p>\n The 2016 Honda Civic<\/strong> comes with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with 174 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque, making it one of the fastest compact vehicles on the market today, allowing you to accelerate from 0 to 100 km\/h in about 8.5 seconds, although it doesn’t provide that sporty feeling it’s supposed to convey.<\/p>\n In the end, without being a sports car, the Civic’s steering scheme and suspensions allow us to have fun on mountain roads. At high speeds and when entering curves, the car feels well-supported on the asphalt. The steering wheel points with confidence and conveys enough information to the driver’s hands. There is a good balance between agility and comfort.<\/p>\n The tenth generation of the Civic in its sedan variant is already on sale in the American market. Its starting price is $19,475 and corresponds to the LX trim with a manual transmission. The test model, the 1.5 Turing, amounts to $27,335.<\/p>\n There is no doubt that the Honda Civic<\/strong> is a very well-crafted product, although the price is somewhat high for a vehicle in its category.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Just over a decade ago, owning a Honda Civic meant having style; it was trendy and a good car.
