2002 Honda Civic Hatchback

All 2002 Honda Civic sedans and coupes feature a revised steering box for improved driving feel, added sound insulation and slightly tweaked suspension tuning. For 2002, there are three main trim levels: DX, LX and EX. Mid-level LX comes with air conditioning (includes a micron air filter), power windows and locks, cruise control and a cassette deck. There's also the natural gas-powered GX sedan, the high fuel-mileage HX coupe and the new Civic Si hatchback.

DX and LX are powered by a 115-horsepower 1.7-liter four-cylinder engine and are mated to a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. The engines in the GX, HX and EX are equipped with Honda's VTEC variable valve-timing system. VTEC allows the EX to make 127 horsepower. Later in 2002, Honda is set to offer a gasoline/electric hybrid Civic showcasing technology developed for the Honda Insight.

If it's power you are looking for, the 2002 Honda Civic Hatchback should suit you. Other features include standard rear disc brakes, a sport-tuned suspension, sport seats and special gauges.
Regardless of the body style, the Civic earns excellent scores in government crash tests. ABS is offered, but only on EX, GX and Si trim.

2006 honda civic,Reviews

2006 honda civic has completely redesigned the Civic for 2006. The company has also improved the gas-electric IMA system for the Civic Hybrid and restored the Civic Si trim's potency with a 197-horsepower engine and a sportier coupe body style.

Introduction
All DX, LX and EX models are powered by a SOHC 1.8-liter, inline four-cylinder engine with Honda's i-VTEC system. The GX uses a natural gas-fueled version that makes 113 hp and 109 lb-ft. The previous Civic Si hatchback was a performance disappointment. For those interested more in fuel economy rather than 0-60-mph times, there's the Civic Hybrid sedan. Whichever model you choose, it's pretty hard to go wrong with the 2006 Honda Civic.

Body Styles, Trim Levels, and Options
The 2006 honda civic is available as a sedan or a two-door coupe. There are also three specialty models: the Civic Hybrid sedan, Civic GX sedan and the Civic Si coupe. The front wheels of all DX, LX and EX models are powered by a 1.8-liter, inline four-cylinder engine. The 1.3-liter gas-electric powertrain found in the Civic Hybrid makes 110 hp and boasts the best fuel-economy figures of the Civic range -- 50 mpg for both city and highway with a continuously variable transmission (CVT).

Every 2006 honda civic comes equipped with antilock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution, front-seat side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags and active front-seat head restraints. DX, LX, GX and Hybrid models have front disc/rear drum brakes, while the EX and Si have four-wheel discs.

The Civic's large dash features an unusual layout. Honda calls it a two-tier design.

2010 Honda Civic,Reviews

After a handful of tweaks last year, the 2010 Honda Civic is unchanged. The 2010 Honda Civic compact sedan/coupe is one iconic car whose reputation is well-deserved. The 2010 Honda Civic is a compact car available as a sedan or coupe. For both, there are five main trim levels: DX, LX, EX, EX-L and Si. On the Civic sedan, Honda also offers the DX Value package, the LX-S, the Hybrid and the GX.
The LX-S sedan tacks on alloy wheels, a chrome exhaust outlet, a rear spoiler, front sport seats and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. The sporty Civic Si has most of the EX's features plus a more powerful engine, a sport-tuned suspension, 17-inch alloy wheels with high-performance tires, foglights, sport seats and special interior trim.
It's available only on Si, EX, EX-L and Hybrid models. The front-wheel-drive 2010 Honda Civic has a whole bunch of available engines and transmissions. Manual transmission models are notably quicker.
The Civic Hybrid uses a gasoline/electric hybrid powertrain to maximize fuel economy. For the Civic Si, Honda installs a 197-hp 2.0-liter engine and a limited-slip front differential; a six-speed manual is the only available transmission. The Civic Si zips from zero to 60 mph in 7.1 seconds. Nearly all Civic models boast above-average fuel efficiency. The Hybrid tops the Civic lineup with fuel mileage of 40 city/45 highway and 42 combined. Civic Si models have 21/29/24 mpg estimates.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety gives the Civic sedan its top rating of "Good" for the car's performance in frontal-offset and side-impact tests, but the Civic coupe drops to "Acceptable" (second best) in side impacts.
The Civic's dash features an unusual gauge layout. The 2010 Honda Civic handles more confidently than the average compact car, but it's not as capable as the class-leading Mazda 3. The Civic Hybrid and natural-gas GX are quite slow; we're inclined to forgive the uniquely powered GX, but not the Hybrid, as the Toyota Prius is quicker and cheaper.
