2012 Honda Civic Sedan - Review and Prices

The 2012  Honda Civic remnants offered in quite a range of power trains and two body styles but no matter which one you pick, the driving experience can be described as perky yet refined. The 140 horsepower, 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine that comes in base DX, mid-level EX, and the best-equipped LX models is no penalty box, even though its acceleration numbers probably don't stand out. It's smooth, quick-revving, and refined, and pairs well with either the five-speed manual or five-speed automatic.


On the highway can be a little too light on center, but when pushed hard the Civic feels like a more sophisticated, more expensive car whereas most other budget-priced small sedans start to show ragged edges. If you're willing to trade a little fuel economy for a lot more horsepower, the Si is a blast; its 2.0-liter four-cylinder makes 197 horsepower and drives the front wheels through a six-speed manual gearbox. This engine delivers a rush of power at the high end of its rev band, if and only if, you're willing to keep it up there.
