| Honda Safety Both devices provide an adjustment range of 40mm15 which in combination with the seat positioning enable the driver to easily find the optimum driving position. Increased overall body width results in a wider interior while modifications to the shape of the front seatback and a floor with minimized central tunnel height ensures a more spacious rear seat area. |
| Honda Comparisons The trunk is a spacious 438 liters16 with minimal intrusion of the wheel housings. Honda Safety. The Civic is also equipped with 6:4split rear seats which fold down easily with the pull of a lever located inside the trunk. |
| Honda Generations In the Civic Hybrid the IPU (Intelligent Power Unit) which is located in the rear of the vehicle has been made 13% more compact than the previous Civic Hybrid for minimum reduction of trunk volume. This ensures ample trunk space of 350 liters16. Honda Comparisons. 13 Civic Hybrid display alternates between coolant temperature gauge and current fuel consumption gauge 14 Civic 1.8B uses transparent tachometer display. |
| Honda Test Drive 15 Honda calculations 16 Honda calculations according to VDA formula Chassis and Body The wide stance contributes to improved drivability and a smoother ride. To help provide more direct linear handling feel the positioning of the steering gearbox the structure of the body and subframe and the symmetry of the suspension have been comprehensively redesigned. Honda Generations. The strut front suspension provides outstanding space efficiency. |
| Used Cars A sideforce canceling spring reduces shock absorber friction for improved ride comfort while making for a more compact suspension. Honda Safety. The rear suspension employs a compact reactivelink doublewishbone design. |
| Car Insurance The shock absorber and spring formerly a single unit have been separated and positioned slightly behind the wheel center for improved tire contact and a more comfortable ride while at the same time contributing to reduced road noise. The body achieves an extremely high level of rigidity with 35% greater torsional rigidity than the previous model. Honda Safety. Dynamic rigidity has also been improved by achieving the correct balance of rigidity front and rear and by strengthening seams throughout the vehicle. |
| Compare Cars This achieves a high degree of handling stability while also improving ride comfort. Honda Safety. Other innovations include the use of light strong hightensile steel in approximately 50% of the bodys major frame components the use of tailored blank welds in key areas and combining steel plates of varying thicknesses and materials for efficient strengthening. |
| Compare Car Price Reduction of crankshaft knocking and highprecision control of ignition timing to limit highfrequency ignition noise during combustion are just two of the measures employed to reduce engine noise at its source The engine mounts are supplemented by torque rods to absorb longitudinal engine vibration. This considerably reduces the transmission of engine vibration and contributes to more linear handling. Honda Safety. The cabin area employs flat joints between the plates for the center pillars rear wheel housings and trunk area to reduce the number of holes and gaps while the bottom portion of each pillar is insulated with urethane foam to reduce noise in the cabin interior. |
| Compare Car Rental Rate Light highperformance sound insulation materials are also optimally positioned in the floor and central roof area to achieve high levels of noise reduction and weight reduction. Advanced Features The IHCC (Intelligent Highway Cruise Control)17 vehicle speed and distance control system helps reduce the burden on the driver during freeway driving. It assesses driving conditions using data from a millimeterwave radar unit built into the front grille of the vehicle that measures the distance to the vehicle ahead along with data from vehicle speed and yaw rate sensors. Honda Safety. In addition to maintaining the vehicle at a set speed this cruise control system automatically regulates vehicle speed and distance depending on whether or not there is a vehicle in the same lane ahead. |
| Compare Car Insurance, Compare Car Insurance Rate The Honda HDD InterNavi System18 with rear camera utilizes the enormous information storage of a highcapacity hard drive to deliver a wide range of information. Honda Safety. The 7inch touchpanel display provides an easytosee easytooperate interface while Bluetooth19 compatibility enables wireless connection with cellular phones for even more powerful communications capabilities. Honda Generations. 17 Factory option on the Civic 1.8G with 5speed automatic transmission 1.8GL 1.8S and the Civic Hybrid MX 18 Factory option on the Civic 1.8G 1.8GL 1.8S and the Civic Hybrid 19 Bluetooth is a registered trademark of Bluetooth SIG Inc. Honda Test Drive. Safety Performance The Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) systemwhich includes the Antilock Brake System (ABS) Traction Control System (TCS) and sideslip control20works in combination with the DBW electronic throttle control that optimizes engine torque to achieve precision handling. Honda Safety. The Collision Mitigation Brake System (CMS) 21 uses millimeterwave radar assessing collision risk based on intervehicle distance and relative vehicle speeds. |
