Road Test: Honda Coupe shows way Canadians love Civic - durhamregion.com
Meet Canada’s automotive sweetheart – the Honda Civic. For 17 years straight, going on 18, the Civic has been the number one selling car in this country. While there are literally millions of ways to configure a F-150, Honda keeps it pretty simple when it comes to the Civic – a sedan or a coupe as tested here. There is a hybrid Civic sedan (base, $27,200) but production of that ends this model year. If you want a Civic-size Honda hybrid, there is always the CR-Z (base $22,990). There is no wagon, but the sub-compact Fit (base, $14,575). or HR-V compact CUV (base, $20,690) more than fill the bill. As for a convertible, I’m sure Honda has considered it, but the Civic’s patented, super strong hoop-like ACE safety structure precludes that. The Civic Coupe comes in four models starting with the entry LX, EX and EX-L with navigation. The CVT is standard on the EX-L Navi with a six-speed manual exclusive to the Si. All but the Si run on regular fuel with the five-speed model clocking 8. 6/6. 6/7. 7L/100 km city/highway/combined. Source: www.durhamregion.com
