What kind of car is the Honda Civic?
2 Answers
Civic is Honda's Civic model, which is an A-segment car under the Honda brand. Taking the 2021 Civic 1.5T as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with the following dimensions: length 4517mm, width 1799mm, height 1434mm, wheelbase 2700mm, fuel tank capacity 47L, and curb weight 1343kg. The 2021 Civic 1.5T features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a multi-link rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine delivering a maximum horsepower of 177PS, maximum power of 130kW, and maximum torque of 220Nm, paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).
The Honda Civic is that compact sedan particularly well-suited for family use. My family owns a tenth-generation Civic, which we've driven for three years without any issues. The space is exceptionally well-designed; even with five family members on board, it never feels cramped, and the trunk can easily fit a child's bicycle along with a pile of luggage. The fuel consumption is pleasantly surprising—around 7 liters per 100 km in city driving with the AC on, and even more economical on highways. The suspension is tuned to a perfect balance, making speed bumps comfortable to pass, while the steering is light yet precise, making it easy even for novice drivers. In the used car market, Civics hold their value remarkably well; I bought mine new, and it still commands a good resale price. Maintenance is virtually hassle-free—basic services like oil and filter changes cost just a few hundred dollars, far more worry-free than German cars.
