2017 HONDA CIVIC LX SEDAN REVIEW : THE QUINTESSENTIAL FAMILY SEDAN
Combining great looks and a reputation for dependability with excellent performance, comfort, and fuel economy, the 2017 Honda Civic LX is a very popular economy car. Add to it a five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA and excellent interior room, and you have the quintessential family sedan.
Now in its 10th generation, the Honda Civic has been around for nearly half a century. Starting off as a two door coupe and hatchback in 1972, the Honda Civic has always given consumers the flexibility with fuel over many other competitors.
New Power Trains for 2017 Currently the 10th generation Civic is being offered in new power trains and can be fitted with either a 2.0-liter four with 158-hp, or a 174-hp 1.5-liter turbo four paired with a six speed manual or CVT transmission. This is a huge improvement over the previous generation in nearly every way.
Back with technology, style, and form Over the past few years Honda hasn’t been putting as much effort into their compacts, which led to their competitors growing with a more appealing eye. Now back with technology, style, and form, the 2017 Honda Civic LX showcases a very sleek, clean-sheet design, stiff body chassis, efficient engines, and a large list of safety features and technology. Standard safety features include antilock brakes, side airbags, side curtain airbags and stability control.
Honda Sensing driver-assistive technologies Available Honda Sensing suite of driver-assistive technologies include Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, and Honda LaneWatch live video. The 2017 Honda Civic LX is leading with a variety of multi style bodies and performance platforms. The Civic sedan is probably the best-looking Honda in its class for a decade. The 2017 Civic LX sedan features a beautifully edgy fastback shape, thus making its appearance in proportions wider and lower. The front end lacks oomph, with a very basic thick chrome band, but elsewhere the car is quite the looker, with its flared wheels, fastback style roofline, wedgy tail, and bracket shaped taillights giving it an elegant Acura style.
Roomy Interiors An available eight-way power driver seat makes the Civic even more comfortable to drive. Interiors are roomy and comfortable, with enough leg and headroom for even 6-footers.
