Honda's compact Civic is available in coupe and sedan body styles and is positioned between the subcompact Fit hatchback and midsize Accord in Honda's lineup. The Civic competes with the Toyota Corolla, Hyundai Elantra and Nissan Sentra. Five distinct models are available: the Civic sedan and coupe, Civic Si sedan and coupe, and the Civic Hybrid sedan, which is covered separately in the Cars.com Research section. In addition, approved Honda dealers in California, Utah, Oklahoma and New York carry a Civic GX powered by natural gas.
Styling
The Civic's design was truly trend-setting when it was introduced five years ago, and it still looks fresh from the outside.
Performance
No matter which model, the 2011 Honda Civic delivers satisfying performance and a perky, nimble driving feel.
Quality
The 2011 Honda Civic offers a refined interior, but especially with its tight back seat it's far from the most comfortable among small sedans.
Features
The 2011 Honda Civic does have some impressive possibilities, but they're only offered in top-of-the-line EX-L models; otherwise the feature list is unimpressive.
Exterior
Honda says the Civic features an "expressive and futuristic design." Design touches include a steeply raked windshield, minimal front and rear overhangs, and small gaps between the tires and fenders. Exterior features include:
- Standard 15-inch wheels
- Optional 16-inch wheels
- Optional power moonroof
- Optional rear deck spoiler and chrome exhaust finisher
All Civics seat five, and the driver faces a two-tier instrument panel and a tilt/telescoping steering wheel. There is a multifunction center console. Interior features include:
- Standard power windows
- Optional navigation system with voice recognition
- Optional Bluetooth limited to navigation-equipped vehicles
- Optional USB audio interface for MP3 players and flash drives
- Optional leather interior
- Optional XM Satellite Radio
Regular Civic coupes and sedans use a 1.8-liter i-VTEC four-cylinder. All models use drive-by-wire throttle control. Mechanical features include:
- 140 horsepower and 128 pounds-feet of torque
- Five-speed manual transmission
- Optional five-speed automatic
- MacPherson strut front suspension and a compact multilink double-wishbone rear suspension
As in previous years, the electronic stability system is not available on lower trim levels, but it's standard on EX-L trims and above. Standard safety features include:
- Antilock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution
- Side-impact and side curtain airbags
- Active head restraints for front seats
Honda's performance-oriented Si model — offered as a sedan and coupe — features a rear deck spoiler, cladding and Si badging that's different from the coupe's rear spoiler and cladding. The engine cover also is black instead of silver. Features include:
- 2.0-liter i-VTEC four-cylinder
- 197 hp at 7,800 rpm and 139 pounds-feet of torque at 6,200 rpm
- Six-speed manual gearbox
- Limited-slip differential
- Deeply bolstered seats with red fabric stitching
- Alloy wheels with 17-inch tires
- USB audio interface for MP3 players and flash drives
- Navigation system with voice recognition available
