Learn about each of these models:
Civic Sedan and Civic Coupe
The Civic Sedan and Coupe models are designed to provide an optimal balance of comfort, value and performance. The Civic Coupe with its 1.9-inch-shorter wheelbase than the Civic Sedan offers a more sporty character, although both share nearly identical cha automobile news ssis construction. The Civic Sedan and Coupe models are powered by a 1.8-liter inline 4-cylinder engine with a 16-valve i-VTEC valvetrain and a dual-stage intake manifold.
The engine produces 140 horsepower at 6500 rpm and 128 lb-ft. of torque at 4300 rpm. Both models receive an EPA-estimated city/highway/combined fuel economy rating1 of 28/39/32 miles per gallon when equipped with an automatic transmission (standard on Civic EX Sedan and all EX-L models). A manual transmission is standard on the Civic DX and LX (automatic transmission available).
Civic HF
The Civic HF is a value-conscious "high fuel-economy" sedan positioned between the Civic LX and Civic EX. It is equipped with a 5-speed automatic transmission, exclusive 15-inch lightweight alloy wheels and aerodynamic enhancements under the body and an exclusive rear spoiler. The Civic HF Sedan is EPA rated for 41 miles per gallon2 on the highway – an additional 5 percent above a similarly equipped Civic Sedan's 39 miles per gallon.
Civic Si
The Civic Si Coupe and Sedan models prioritize handling and performance with a sport-tuned suspension and a 2.4-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine. More powerful than the 2.0-liter engine in the previous generation, the new engine produces 201 horsepower @ 7000 rpm and 170 lb-ft. torque @ 4400 rpm, an improvement of 4 peak horsepower and 31 lb-ft. of peak torque compared to the previous model.
A sport-minded 6-speed manual transmission with a helical-type limited-slip differential (LSD) is standard. The LSD helps the Civic Si accelerate powerfully when exiting corners as both wheels can deliver more equal torque distribution to the road compared to a conventional open differential. The tall sixth-gear ratio allows for relaxed highway cruising.
Unique Civic Si exterior features include fog lights, 17-inch alloy wheels with 215/45R17 tires (summer tires available), a body-color deck lid spoiler with an LED center brake light, and a chrome exhaust finisher. Inside is an exclusive aluminum shift knob with leather, textured aluminum pedals, and firmly bolstered perforated cloth sport seats with suede-like trim and red stitching. The steering wheel is leather-trimmed with red stitching. The i-MID on the Civic Si includes a new Sequential Rev-limit Indicator and Power Monitor.
Civic Hybrid
The 2012 Civic Hybrid uses the latest version of the company's IMA parallel hybrid system to increase efficiency using an electric motor placed inline between the engine and transmission. A continuously variable transmission (CVT) is standard equipment. For 2012, a larger 1.5-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine, up from 1.3 liters in the previous generation, provides a broadened mid-range power band and the switch to lithium ion (Li-Ion) batteries from nickel-metal hydride results in enhanced IMA electrical power assist. The Civic Hybrid achieves an EPA-estimated city/highway/combined fuel economy first drive audi a6 rating1 of 44/44/44 miles per gallon.
Compared to a 2012 Civic Sedan with an automatic transmission, the EPA fuel economy rating represents a city increase of approximately 57 percent and a highway increase of approximately 13 percent.
Combined, the engine and IMA produce 110 horsepower and 127 lb-ft. torque. The Civic Hybrid is available as an Advanced-Technology Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (AT-PZEV).
Civi mustang car c Natural Gas
Available nationally to qualifying Honda dealers, the Civic Natural Gas is powered by a dedicated natural gas variant of the 1.8-liter inline 4-cylinder engine similar to the one used in the Civic Sedan and Civic Coupe. The Civic Natural Gas engine produces 110 horsepower and 106 lb-ft. of torque. Compared to the previous generation, torque output below 4000 rpm has been increased for greater drivability. The Civic Natural Gas has an EPA-estimated city/highway/combined fuel economy rating2 of 27/38/31 miles per gallon and is equipped with an automatic transmission as standard equipment.
The Civic Natural Gas is the only OEM-built, dedicated CNG passenger car assembled3 in America and the only vehicle certified by the EPA to meet both Federal Tier 2 Bin 2 and Inherently Low Emission Vehicle (ILEV) zero evaporative emission certification standards. The 2012 Civic Natural Gas will become available at the retail level in significantly more states than the current four (California, New York, Nevada and Utah) when it goes on sale in the fall. The increased availability of the Civic Natural Gas helps bring inherently clean-burning natural gas technology to an even broader audience while also supporting diversity in transportation energy resources.
