Honda Civic
Ever since the price of oil began increasing, we have seen the sale of compact vehicles increase considerably, notably among our southern neighbours. The Honda Civic is sought for its very reasonable fuel consumption, at least with its 1.8-litre engine, and the hybrid version. Available as a sedan and a coupe, its front end was entirely redesigned and associated to a new more expressive bumper. The Si model, with its 197 horsepower engine has many drivers salivating, while the 110 horsepower hybrid model needs more exposure.
