The Honda Civic is one of the most well-known family sedans in the country. Over the five decades, the vehicle has undergone several changes, with this year being the most impressive transformation yet.
The 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback has been completely redesigned to feature a sportier exterior design and refreshed and luxurious interior. So if you have been looking for a new vehicle that is well-equipped and fun to drive, the new Civic may be the perfect choice for you.
Exterior Design
The Civic Hatchback features a new captivating exterior design. The body now features smoothed-out edges that give it a sleek and elegant appearance. In addition, the vehicle comes with standard LED headlights and fog lights, including turn signals. In the rear, the bright tail lights fit snug under the lip of the trunk. And the dual exhausts that are outlined in silver help give the exterior an added level of sportiness.
The body has also been updated to provide a more peaceful driving experience. In addition, the roof has been strategically redesigned to help eliminate any outside noise from entering the cabin. The roof also features an available one-touch power moonroof that allows the interior to bathe in the fresh air and warm sunshine with just a simple push of a button.
Interior Design
The Civic Hatchback provides a spacious interior that comes standard with various luxurious features. The functional cockpit features an open design that conveniently puts all of the controls within reach of the driver. There is also a larger centre console in the front row that gives the driver and front-seat passenger plenty of elbow room. This year, the Civic Hatch also comes with a larger windshield that helps to expand the driver's visibility and eliminate blind spots.
The cabin also offers two rows of spacious seating and provides enough legroom for adults to sit in the front comfortably and rear seats. The interior is adorned in premium materials, and the seats are wrapped in soft and comfortable cloth upholstery. The cabin also provides several creature comforts, including standard heated front seats and available heated rear seats, as well as an available leather-wrapped heated steering wheel.
Technology and Entertainment
The Civic Hatchback comes standard with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment display; however, a larger 9-inch display is available. Both displays come equipped with a wide range of innovative apps and features, including Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For example, suppose you want to make sure that every occupant in the vehicle can listen to their favourite song with crisp, clean clarity. In that case, there is an available Bose sound system that offers 12 powerful speakers placed throughout the vehicle's interior.
An available 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster also clearly displays the vehicle's most important information.
Safety and Driver-Assist Features
The Civic Hatchback comes with one of the most comprehensive lists of standard safety features in its class. The vehicle is not only designed to keep its occupants safe, but it can also help keep the other people on the road safe. For instance, the new front bumper and the hood are specifically designed to absorb energy on impact, which could help to reduce injuries to pedestrians. Other standard safety features include:
• Advanced Airbag System
• Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control
• Auto High-Beam
• Hill Start Assist
In addition to the many safety features offered, the Civic Hatchback also comes standard with Honda Sensing Technologies. This innovative collection of technologies helps to give the driver added peace of mind. The features that come with the Honda Sensing Technologies include:
• Front Camera
• Adaptive Cruise Control
• Collision Mitigation Braking System
• Forward Collision Warning system
• Road Departure Mitigation
• Lane Departure Warning System
• Lane Keeping Assist System
• Traffic Sign Recognition
• Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
Power and Performance
The Civic Hatchback comes standard with a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine that can deliver 158 horsepower. However, if you are looking for a little more get-up-and-go, you will choose the available 1.5-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that delivers 180 horsepower. Both engine options come standard with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), but manual 6-speed transmission is available for either engine.
The Civic Hatchback offers impressive fuel consumption ratings. However, the various drive modes further improve the fuel economy. With a simple push of the button, drivers can drive with Normal Mode, ECON Mode, or the available Sport Mode.
