The 9.5th generation Civic is the 2011 model. Ninth-generation Civic size parameters: The body dimensions of the ninth-generation Civic are 4535mm in length, 1755mm in width, and 1450mm in height, with the length increased by 35mm compared to the eighth-generation model. Additionally, the wheelbase of the ninth-generation Civic is only 2670mm, not only failing to increase on the basis of the eighth-generation model but actually decreasing by 30mm. The official explanation is that the shortened wheelbase enhances the vehicle's handling, and due to new seat treatments, the rear space of the ninth-generation Civic is actually increased compared to the current model. Honda Civic powertrain: Equipped with the SPORT-TURBO series turbocharged engine, matched with a CVT transmission or a 6-speed manual transmission.
The Civic 9.5 generation refers to the minor facelift version produced from late 2013 to 2014. The most noticeable changes in this generation include the front grille transitioning from three bars to a single chrome strip, more three-dimensional fog light surrounds, and the addition of LED daytime running lights on some higher trim levels. I've driven a friend's 1.8L version of this generation - the power delivery is smooth with city fuel consumption around 7L/100km. Compared to the initial 9th generation, it features improved sound insulation and more solid chassis feedback when going over speed bumps. In the used car market, the 9.5 generation commands a premium of 3,000-5,000 yuan over the standard 9th generation, primarily due to its more timeless exterior and interior design.
