7.48KViews
Honda Civic is the second most popular car on Instagram globally with a mention of over 7.5 million hashtags. In the UAE, visit any car park and you’ll easily spot Honda Civic models ranging from the year 2003 till 2019 in all colors and trims. Most of them in a good condition. Personally, I always wanted to own a Honda Civic ever since my teenage years but somehow it remained elusive to me. However, I did get to drive the ones owned by extended family or close friends. The car I reviewed and throughly enjoyed this month was the Honda Civic LX Sport (Bursting Blue color), a total head turner and truly a fantastic car in all aspects. I frequently switched between the Sport mode and Eco mode for comparison and found the Sport mode to my liking. Even on the Sport mode, the fuel economy is good. Honda Civic is probably the best looking mid-size budget sedan coming out of Japan. Being one of the first cars Honda launched in 1973, the Civic has improved and gained popularity in every generation. It doesn’t cost a lot, is very fuel efficient, seats 5 people and is almost as reliable as any other Japanese car. The acceleration and maneuverability are worth mentioning along side its stability on high speeds. The safety rating is also one of the highest in its class. The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD) minimizes the likelihood of skidding.  It also maximizes the stopping power and keeps you in control during sudden and heavy braking. 17 inch wheels driven on Honda’s Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) for a smooth transfer of power to the road gives the driver a fulfilling driving experience from start to finish. This car is built for the everyday commute and the weekend fun at the same time. It is safe for me to say that people just love Honda Civic and Honda Civic loves them back.
