Specs for all generations of Honda Civic

According to both specialists and owners, Honda Civic is an extremely reliable vehicle that rarely ever breaks. It is often praised for its solid engines, overall build-quality, durability, performance, and practicality. No common unexpected issues have been reported, but if such ever occur, parts and repair are generally inexpensive. As a result, the Honda Civic holds a place among the best-selling car nameplates in the world.

Honda Civic has been one of the brand's most successful models. It was first introduced in 1972 and is currently (as of 2022) still in production in its eleventh generation, continuing its decades-long history. The Civic was initially a subcompact car, but eventually grew in size and became a part of the compact segment, the demand for which was increasing at that time. By adapting to customers' needs and offering great build-quality and performance, the Civic managed to stay relevant throughout the years and become one of the most sought after vehicles worldwide.

When first introduced to the market, Honda Civic became popular for being a practical, fuel-efficient, and cheap to run and maintain vehicle choice. High-performance variants, however, have since been added to the Civic range, making the model gain reputation for sportiness, as well. The most well-known performance Civic variant is the Civic Type R. Along with the lighter body, more powerful engine options, and enhanced brakes, some design features, such as the red background of the Honda badge, make it easily distinguishable from standard models.

Several paint finishes are offered for the eleventh generation Honda Civic, introduced in 2021. The redesigned exterior is available in solid Rallye Red; metallic finishes in Lunar Silver, Polished Metal and Brilliant Blue; pearlescent options of White Orchid, Crystal Black and Sonic Grey; and a new stand-out pearl finish Obsidian Blue.

Apple CarPlay and Android Auto were added to Honda Civic's set of features in 2020, the former being compatible with iOS 8.4 or later and iPhone 5 or later and the latter - with Android 5.0 and higher (as of 2022). The technology allows drivers who use one of the two leading operating systems to be seemlessly connected to their vehicles.
