Product: Honda Civic Hybrid

Review: Interiors are so well crafted & beautiful!

Review By: Aira Review Date: 13 Aug 2009

Honda Civic Hybrid is beautiful in style and it definitely look futuristic. I think the choice could differ, one can love it or may hate it because of its price. As far as feature is concerned the feature is excellent. We can say that the feature are excellent because of comfort layer and feelings while driving and sitting inside as well. The style is so nice and appreciated. There is a mixed feeling though, it has almost a minivan look to it, body design is good with conventional Honda Civics along with bold front end styling. The interiors is so appealing and well-crafted and is admirable when it comes to dashboard and displays.

You can easily see the visual checks of speed. Things inside are easy to operate, one can get little difficult when access first but gradually it is very easy to handle all the functions. It has an automatic climate control and optional navigation. The features are really very good. Well, this is true that there is no folding rear seat in the Honda Civic Hybrid, because the battery pack lives between the rear seats and the trunk. Power locks and windows are standard, along with a tilt/telescope steering wheel. It has dual airbags, side and side curtain airbags, and anti-lock brakes. It is a very livable fuel-economy champ. By comfort and quality this car is absolutely good. The materials used in this car o of high quality.

Well, the car has been priced at Rs 21.5 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), powered by a 1.3 litre petrol engine and electric motor. The car runs on iVTEC engine which produced Max power of 95 PS @ 6000 rpm. The car is very spacious. There are lots of space on dashboard. Five person can sit very comfortably in this car. But overall, the car has a decent interior space, looks very nice, with comfortable seats.

Review: A car for Mother Nature

Review By: vk Review Date: 16 Aug 2009

Depletion of the ozone layer as a result of global warming has resulted in companies scrambling to bring out environment-friendly products. This is no less true of car manufacturers. Fuel-guzzling vehicles are a major cause of global warming, and car companies have been gearing up to provide fourwheelers that will keep Mother Nature smiling. One such company is Honda, which upgraded its Civic model and launched the Honda Civic Hybrid.

The Honda Civic Hybrid at first sight looks like the usual 2-door spacious sedan, with power windows and a central door locking system. However, it has a great stylish exterior that sets it apart from other sedans. It comes in 2 colours: Alabaster Silver & Premium Pearl White.

Inside, the dashboard is also stylish. The instrument panel is a visual delight, with all the guage-readers properly spaced out. The stereo system is not too bad, but most people prefer extra loud audio of the deafening kind for them, they would need to install better speakers!

The Honda Civic Hybrid operates on both an engine & an electric motor. Its main environment-friendly feature is the ‘idle-stop' feature. Lets suppose you stop at the roadside to answer your mobile. Instead of letting the engine idle away and thereby result in polluting the environment with the cars emissions, the engine turns off automatically. This automatically stops the emissions. Whats more, it saves fuel!

The best feature of the Honda Civic Hybrid is the provision of air bags. Generally, a car will have airbags only on the frontal side for the driver or for the driver & front-seated passenger. In the Honda Civic Hybrid, there are side air bags too for the driver & front passenger.

When launched in India, the Honda Civic Hybrid had a very high price tag of over Rs.21lakh. Although the vehicle did get buyers, the price kept away many customers who would otherwise rush to buy a fuel-saving vehicle. Hence, in November last year, Honda drastically brought down the price to Rs.13.36lakhs, but this was for a limited period.

It is not sure what the exact price now, but lets hope the company keeps a reduced price. Mother Nature needs some more smiles!

It has really great looks. For a product in this category and range i.e 8 lakhs to 12 lakhs it is the best car in this segment.The stylish international looks gives you a cue to yearn for it. The engine
is really good. I need not say it, b'cos it is a Honda product. It is better than the Honda City but with the new version of Honda City which has been launched recently it is quite similar.It gives a bit less legroom for both the front seats and back seats.The additional features which make it unique are the state of art steering wheel,the Dual Airbags, ABS with EBD and Brake Assist, Automatic Climate Control, 6-CD intergated Audio with 6 speakers, Leather Upholstry etc. But one problem which i took notice is the ground clearance which is of European standards. It means for Indian roads it is comparatively less.It has a standard fuel consumption. Really a great car for smooth and comfortable riding.
