1 Answers
The engine code for the Civic 1.5T is L15B8, which evolved from the L15B2 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. It features direct fuel injection, dual overhead camshafts, and adjustable valve lift. However, it lacks Honda's VTC (Variable Valve Timing Control) and instead uses dual variable valve timing to achieve efficient valve performance across a wide range of engine speeds. The Civic offers multiple models to cater to the preferences of consumers in different countries, including three-door hatchbacks, hardtop coupes, hybrid versions, and five-door sedans. In terms of body dimensions, the Civic measures 4649mm in length, 1800mm in width, 1416mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm.
