The 2018 Honda Civic: A Twentieth Year at the Top!

What could be said about the 2018 (or previous) Honda Civic except it’s probably the best possible choice for someone looking for a reliable, elegant, durable car with unbeatable resale value and value for the money in general. Unsurprisingly enough, this proposition appeals to a large segment of consumers that made the Honda Civic the best-selling passenger car in Canada for twentieth consecutive year. We’re about to discuss the different versions of this popular model and when you’ll have spotted the one made for you, go take a look at it and test drive it at Longueuil Honda, your Honda car dealer on the South Shore, near Montreal and Brossard.

Civic Sedans and Coupe

The Civic DX and LX are the entry level versions of the model. They’re offered at a highly competitive price point mainly because they come with a manual transmission. The DX version is exclusive to the sedan, while the LX (that has an optional continuously variable transmission) is also available in coupe. SE and EX are also exclusive to 4-door Civic and add features such as a remote starter and a proximity entry system with keyless start. EX-T and Touring versions are common to sedan and coupe, and their most noticeable addition is a beefed up engine, namely a 1.5-liter, turbocharged unit that can produce up to 174 horsepower. On the Si and Si HFP versions (the latter being only available on sedans), the available power goes beyond 200 HP, and the superior option comes with a sport suspension and adaptive dampers.

Civic Hatchback and Type-R

The Civic Hatchback comes in LX, LX Honda Sensing, SPORT, SPORT Honda Sensing and SPORT Touring versions. The LX version is standard while the others add respectively more comprehensive safety features; a directly-injected turbocharged engine capable of producing 180 HP; a remote starter; and multiple infotainment features. Finally, the Civic Type-R is a jewel on wheels that fans have awaited for a long time. It distinguishes itself with red and black, unique seats clearly inspired by sport cars, a 540-watt audio system, high-performance Brembo brakes, 20-inch wheels, and by its carefully crafted powertrain that can develop more than 300 horsepower!
