The Civic Hybrid is certified by the California Air Resource Board (CARB) as
an Advanced-Technology Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (AT-PZEV). A continuously
variable transmission (CVT) is standard equipment.
The Civic Hybrid can
deactivate all four of its cylinders and operate using only the electric motor
in certain low-speed cruising situations. Power for the Civic Hybrid is provided
by a 1.3-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine and a 20 hp electric motor, producing a
combined 110-horsepower @ 6000 rpm and combined 123 lb-ft. of torque @ 1000-2500
rpm.
Enhancements carried over from 2009 include recently refreshed
exterior and interior styling features comprised of updated headlight and
taillight combinations and updated seating cloth materials for a more premium
interior feel.
Built on a high-rigidity unit-body platform, the Civic
Hybrid is designed to deliver precise, sharp and refined handling performance
with its MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension.
The entire Honda Civic line-up maintains a standard array of safety
technologies including Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure;
side curtain airbags; driver's and front passenger's side airbags with a
passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS); and dual-stage,
dual-threshold driver's and front passenger's airbags (SRS). Active front seat
head restraints are designed to help reduce the likelihood of neck injury in the
event of a rear collision.
Standard active safety features include an
anti-lock brake system (ABS) and electronic brake distribution, front seatbelts
with an automatic tensioning system, and a pedestrian injury mitigation design
incorporated into the front exterior of the vehicle. Driver and front passenger
seatbelt reminders and daytime running lights are also standard equipment. The
Civic Hybrid includes Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), commonly referred to as
electronic stability control, as standard safety content.
The optional
Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System has a 6.5-inch motorized display that
opens and closes for access to the internal single-disc CD player, and a digital
audio-card reader that can play MP3 and Windows Media Audio (WMA) files from
CompactFlash cards (via a PC card adapter).
The navigation system
features more than 7 million points of interest and the voice activation can
control the navigation menus and the audio system, along with entering city and
street names. The system includes Bluetooth HandsFreeLink, a wireless telephone
interface that works with compatible Bluetooth-enabled mobile telephones for
hands-free operation via steering wheel-mounted controls.
Auxiliary audio
input jacks are standard equipment, allowing for portable music device playback
through the audio system. The audio system is capable of playing MP3- and
WMA-formatted CDs. Standard Speed-sensitive Volume Control (SVC) automatically
adjusts the volume based on vehicle speed. Audio displays include CD/MP3 text
readout.
The Civic Hybrid is produced and assembled in the Honda Motor
Co., Ltd., Suzuka, Japan, manufacturing facility.
