Why are Civics rarely encountered on highways?
1 Answers
Highways are rarely encountered with Civics possibly because manufacturers do not recommend driving them on highways, as they tend to feel floaty at high speeds and have significant idle noise. Handling aspects: In terms of handling, the presence of a torsion beam rear suspension perfectly embodies the sporty characteristics typical of the Honda Civic. The difference in the chassis also contributes to the Civic's slightly floaty driving feel at high speeds, which leaves many owners feeling uncertain. NVH aspects: First, regarding NVH (Noise, Vibration, and Harshness), the driving noise is extremely loud. Besides the noise from the engine itself, the sounds from the suspension movements transmitted through the chassis during driving, along with road noise, tire noise, and wind noise exceeding 60 km/h, constantly remind the driver that this car body is essentially 'buying an engine and getting the rest for free.'
