I’ve just spent a week in Honda Civic L Sedan. The overall impression was that it was just a really good car to drive. Well balanced in its ride and handling and with a 1.5L engine and CVT transmission it simply hummed along. On the freeway it cruised effortlessly at the speed limit and we got about 5.3l/100k and around town about 8l/100k
As it was middle of the range it had a mix of comfort and safety features, but I didn’t feel anything was really missing, with the exception of an additional lumbar support for my ageing back.
There was reasonable room in the back for passengers and the boot was a good size, even though the opening was small. The rear seats fold for extra storage length.
At a touch under $28,000 plus the usual costs oit also represents pretty good value. If you like the more traditional style car the Honda Civic is absolutely worth a look.
