If you’re on the market for a reliable compact car that will suit your daily needs and deliver plenty of gusto to boot, the 2018 Honda Civic is one to keep on your radar. Check out why the Honda Civic is built to last.
1. Reliable and Cutting Edge
The Civic’s 2018 model adds impressive high-tech features to the Civic’s reputation for reliability. Some of the vehicle’s stand-out tech features are included in the Honda Sensing package which includes adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, road-departure mitigation, forward-collision warning, and the Collision Mitigation Braking System, which can automatically apply the brakes to help avoid a frontal collision.
Honda Lane Watch makes changing lanes easier than ever by effectively eliminating your blind spot. When you signal right or left, the cameras attached to your side mirrors stream video to give you a visual before you change lanes. These features have helped make the 2018 Civic a Top Safety Pick by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.
2. Everyday Comfort and Sporty Performance
The Civic will get you where you need to go with enough pep that you’ll enjoy getting there. The 2.0-liter engine is equipped with 158 horsepower and 138 pound-feet of torque on the XL and EX models. The EX-T, EX-L and Touring models kick it up a notch with 174 standard horsepower and 168 pound-feet of torque. You can also choose from available turbocharged engines that pump out up to 306 horsepower. MacPherson struts also come standard on the 2018 Civic, allowing you to handle turns and curves with ease.
Available manual or automatic transmission puts you in control of your driving experience. The 6-speed manual transmission that comes standard on the XL and EX-T models gives you maximum control as you switch through gears. If you prefer an automatic shift, CVT (continuously variable transmission) comes standard on other models — optional on the XL and EX-T models — and has been tailored to each engine to allow for the smoothest and most fuel-efficient transition between gears.
3. Features to Suit Your Needs
The 2018 Civic is available in seven trim levels and three body styles, including the sedan, coupe, or hatchback. The base LX offers plenty of features like 16-inch steel wheels, automatic headlights, Bluetooth, a USB port, a 5-inch infotainment screen, a rear camera, and cloth upholstery. The 2018 Civic offers a comfortably spacious interior. Its 60/40 split-folding seats create up to to 15.1 cubic feet of cargo space. All-season floor mats protect your interior come rain, shine, or snow.
Moving up the trim levels to the EX adds features like 16-inch alloy wheels, an additional USB port, and a 7-inch touchscreen. In addition to upgraded features, the EX includes a moonroof, the convenience of remote start, and adds Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration.
As you move up the trim levels you can add features like leather upholstery, heated seats, and full LED headlights.
