The Honda Civic is one of the top selling cars in the US and for very good reason. The civic model dates back a long way and once you’ve owned a Honda often the other brands never seem to stack up all that well.  Honda owners have a high degree of loyalty to the brand and with good reason, build quality and good design that offers great value for money are the hallmarks of the Honda badge!

2009 Honda Civic Hybrid

Over the next five years, Honda plans to power all four-cylinder cars using either petrol hybrids with lithium-ion batteries or i-CTDi diesels. The 2010 Honda Civic Hybrid will use the 1.5L IMA hybrid engine powered by lithium-ion batteries with more than 150bhp and sub-120g/km CO2 emissions. An exciting new Civic Type R is also in the pipeline which will be powered by a 2.0 liter i-VTEC engine that might also get Honda’s new 4-cylinder hybrid electric-motor currently in development. Honda is currently restructuring manufacturing facilities to cater for large-scale hybrid production.
