Honda Civic Sedan Features
Sharp Styling & Performance
Viewed from any angle, the Honda Civic Sedan reflects an athletic appearance inspired by the original Honda design ethos of “Man-Maximum, Machine-Minimum” (or “M/M”). This principle has evolved into a more upscale look than the previous generation, giving the Civic Sedan a lower beltline and more steeply raked windshield pillars for improved outward visibility. Further enhancing its handling capabilities, the Civic Sedan benefits from a widened rear track and distinct rear shoulder line for a more refined feel during cornering.
Standard power for the Civic Sedan comes in the form of a 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine producing 150 horsepower and 133 lb-ft of torque paired to a responsive continuously variable transmission (CVT). Available drive models including Eco, Normal, and Sport give you the option to further customize your experience behind the wheel of the Civic Sedan.
Driver-Focused Interior
Achieving harmony between comfortable and connected, the driver-oriented cabin of the Honda Civic Sedan is the perfect way to make the most of your daily drive. Civic Sedan LX models come standard with a 7-inch color touchscreen, the largest ever found inside of a Civic. Benefitting from the principles of Honda Body Stabilizing technology, the Civic also comes standard with specialized seats to maximize comfort on long-distance drives. By paying meticulous attention to detail, the layout of the cabin follows a minimalist theme that creates a sense of spaciousness. You’ll have the freedom to listen to your favorite songs via Bluetooth® or USB media, radio, or on a connected smartphone for use with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™.
Groundbreaking Safety
Setting the new standard for safety in the compact sedan segment, the Honda Civic Sedan comes equipped with a remarkable collection of advanced safety features designed to keep you out of harm's way. Making their debut for the first time in a passenger car, innovative frontal airbags found inside the Civic feature specialized functions to control head motions in certain types of collisions. Also standard on the Civic Sedan is the award-winning Honda Sensing® suite of safety features. Standard technologies found in this collection include Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM), Lane Departure Warning (LDW), Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™), Forward Collision Warning (FCW), and several more. Every Civic Sedan is also engineered with the Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure, further improved for superior stiffness and protection in the event of a severe accident.
