Overview
The Honda Civic has established itself as one of the most recognised names of sedans worldwide. Civic’s unique combination of performance, accountability, and overall comfort have secured a place in buyers hearts around the world. In India, the car currently sits in the "upper class" category amongst mass market offerings making it an ideal choice for buyers looking for quality of engineering and durability over long periods of time. While not currently sold as a new vehicle, the last generation Civic sold in India was designed to be sporty with a low-sitting body style, a large interior and a reputation for providing a smooth, dynamic drive experience that was appealing to both the enthusiast and the everyday buyer alike. The Civic was appreciated for its driving dynamics that allowed for an enjoyment of the driving experience without sacrificing comfort while competing against a market that is heavily dominated by conservative designs.

Honda Civic Expert's Review
During its time in India, the Honda Civic was among the most well-rounded sedans in its price range. It provided strong construction, outstanding dependability, and a smooth and elegant driving experience. The goal of the Civic was to provide consistency and confidence in daily driving, not to achieve high-performance numbers. Customers who desired a sedan that felt high-end, reliable, and fun to drive for extended periods of time found it appealing.

Honda Civic User's Review 4.4
"The petrol engine runs well while being very quiet. It makes driving around town feel easy while cruising along on the highway feels more relaxed. While maintenance costs are slightly higher than those of an average sedan, reliability helps to offset that additional expense."
"The cabin of my Civic has a lot of breathing space which contributes to its overall comfort and also allows the cabin to appear well-designed with ample amount of storage space. The infotainment system does feel outdated due to its appearance; however, its functionality is excellent."
"I have had my Civic for more than 3 years and this car still feels like a well-built and refined product. The interior quality of the car is very high and the car will continue to be a very comfortable vehicle to drive even over long distances."
"The cars steering is very light in city driving, while highway driving feels very sturdy. The front seats of the car are comfortable, while the rear seat area provides ample legroom. The design of the car continues to attract a lot of attention from people around me."
"The Civic excels in long-distance driving since it has a firmly planted stance while going fast and a very good ability to handle bumps due to suspension design. However, one downside to driving on rough roads is that it has a low ground clearance."
