2 Answers
The tenth-generation Civic is equipped with a 1.0-liter inline three-cylinder turbocharged engine, model P10A1. Here are some relevant introductions about the tenth-generation Civic: 1. The tenth-generation Civic features chrome decorations added around the front grille and fog lights, enhancing its texture. Additionally, the central part of the front bumper adopts a mesh design, which is more sporty compared to the horizontal bar style of the North American version. For the rear design, the taillights use a design similar to the Accord, with a rectangular light body added to the trunk lid. The red and white design incorporates the functions of rear fog lights and reflectors. 2. In terms of the interior, it adopts a brand-new interior design. Compared to the current model, the layout of the audio panel in the new car has changed significantly. At the same time, the LCD screen on the audio panel has been replaced with a larger color LCD screen, positioned on the right side of the upper instrument panel.
Last time I helped a friend inspect a 10th-gen Civic, I specifically researched the engine. The main engine for the domestic version is the L15B8 model, a 1.5T Earth Dreams engine with 177 horsepower, which is indeed quite powerful. Both the manual and CVT transmissions use this engine, though I heard early versions had imported engines. There's also a 1.0T three-cylinder P10A1 model with 131 horsepower, used in the entry-level trim. Remember to check the 8th letter of the VIN—J stands for the 1.0T, and L for the 1.5T. This engine is still used in the new Civic today and has great tuning potential.
