Honda Civic is called Honda Civic in Chinese, and it is a model under the Honda brand. The latest model is the ninth-generation Honda Civic, which uses Michelin 205/50R17 Pilot Sport 3 tires, with the overall adoption of more environmentally friendly rubber materials. In terms of appearance, the ninth-generation Civic features a mesh design in the central part of the front bumper and adds a rectangular light unit on the trunk lid, which functions as a rear fog light and reflector. The ninth-generation Civic was launched in two versions: the standard model and the TYPES sports model. The standard model is equipped with a 1.8L engine paired with a 5MT or 5AT transmission, while the TYPES sports model features a 2.0L engine paired with a 5AT transmission. The 1.8L engine has been upgraded from the R18A1 with a displacement of 1799ml to the R18Z2 with a displacement of 1798ml. The newly added 2.0L engine has a maximum power output of 115 kW.
I remember when I bought my first car last year, I chose the Honda Civic, which is officially called the 'Siyu' in China. The name is quite interesting, derived from the transliteration of the English 'Civic,' meaning something like a 'citizen's car,' which sounds approachable and practical. At the time, I test-drove several models, and the Civic had the smoothest handling, with a light steering wheel perfect for beginners. After driving it for a month, I found its fuel efficiency truly impressive—a full tank could last hundreds of kilometers. On weekends, I often take my family on trips, and the AC cools quickly while the seats are comfortable. The Civic also comes in many versions—the standard model is sufficient, but for a sportier feel, there's the Si or Type R. Overall, this car isn’t flashy but is reliable, and I think it’s a great companion for family commuting.
