The ever-popular Civic has had a facelift this year! It’s still offered as a sedan or coupe, and the Si and Hybrid versions are staying on for 2012. Honda has added a few centimetres here and there to make the vehicle more spacious than ever. This car’s success is guaranteed by its reputation for fuel efficiency and reliability. Note that its sister, the Acura CSX, has been cut from this year’s roster. As an alternative, there’s the Civic EX-L.
