Honda has led the New York Motor Show the new generation Civic, with lots of news for the American market but important because they bear witness to the latest trends of the Japanese manufacturer. The Civic addressed to the U.S. will not be imported in Europe and has a range very well articulated with a range of bodies, and engines to meet virtually any customer need.
It will in fact from the Civic Sedan Civic Coupe, Civic Si through, available with sedan and coupe body, to arrive at the Civic HF and more environmentally friendly models like the Civic Hybrid and the Civic CNG variant powered by natural gas and perhaps the most news interesting for the American market and beyond.
The ninth generation of the Honda Civic model in vogue in the U.S. since 1973 with 8.8 million copies sold, tries to combine driving pleasure with elegant soul, not to mention the efficiency and respect for the environment that increasingly often attract public attention in recent years.
The concept behind the design of the Honda was to design a "compact, futuristic and distinctive," as the builder himself has said, seeking to attract the attention of younger audiences as one of the families, not to mention an audience "difficult" , automotive speaking, made by environmentalists who are giving first place elements such as the level of emissions and the environmental impact of a model.
The 2012 Civic Sedan versions on top perhaps, Coupe and HF, which are presented under the hood with a 4-cylinder gasoline 1.8-liter i-VTEC 144 hp and which is accompanied by a 5-speed automatic transmission, however, also available variation in the manual. The sporting soul is rather the prerogative of the Civic Si, which has a powerful 2.4 i-VTEC petrol engine 201 hp with a 6-speed manual transmission, while the soul emerges green with the Civic Hybrid, equipped with a 1.5 petrol , which is also equipped with the i-VTEC variable valve timing, with an output of 110 hp associated with the module IMA (Integrated Motor Assist), consisting of a 23 hp electric motor powered by lithium-ion battery.
Scheduled for the Civic Hybrid CVT continuously variable automatic transmission. As for the natural gas version, the CNG Civic, Honda has chosen a less powerful version of that equips the 1.8 Sedan, the Coupe and the "economy" versions of HF. In this case, the Japanese four-cylinder delivers 110 hp and is mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission.
Beyond the differences in motor sport and those related to the shape of the bodywork and interior, the new generation of American Honda Civic stand out for a good space and a certain attention to comfort, highlighted in older versions sport. For all there are the traditional front suspension with MacPherson strut, was chosen instead to back a multilink.
The shell is fully faired to reduce turbulence and improve aerodynamic efficiency, while the endowment is respectable and includes power steering with active control can assist the driver in control of the means in every situation, the Multi- Integrated Information Display at the center of the dashboard, air conditioning, electric windows and doors with keyless entry.
