Three Things You May Not Know About the Honda Civic Hatchback

The third model of the current generation of Honda Civic to be released, the Civic Hatchback was quick to make a name for itself in its segment. Larger than most SUVs offered for the same price or more, the Hatchback also surprises its owners with its minimal fuel consumption and balanced handling and performance


There are many things to discover about the 2018 Honda Civic Hatchback. Here are three things you may not have known about Honda's compact hot hatch. 


It Is Equipped With a Turbo Engine


The 2018 Honda Civic Hatchback is powered by a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine producing 174 horsepower and 167 lb-ft of torque in the entry-level LX model. Go for Sport and Sport Touring, however, and you'll get 180 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque from that same engine.


A six-speed manual transmission is standard in all versions while a continuously variable automatic transmission is optional.


It's as Powerful as It Is Fuel-Efficient


The Honda Civic Hatchback 2018 is very powerful for a compact car, no doubt about it. What is even more surprising is that this power does not come at the expense of fuel economy.


Indeed, the Civic Hatchback displays an average fuel consumption rating of only 6.9 litres per 100 kilometres in mixed driving with the CVT box. Opt for the 180-horsepower turbo engine and you still get an average fuel consumption rating of just 7.2 litres per 100 kilometres. That’s quite impressive for a car with so much horsepower.


It Is Very Spacious


The Honda Civic Hatchback has more than 700 litres of cargo space and this with all the seats in place. This is more than the majority, if not all, of the compact SUVs, offered at the same price as the Hatchback. That said, the latter is more agile and more fun to drive than an SUV in the city, and generally sportier too.


With the 2019 Honda Civic Hatchback, you really get the best of both worlds with its dynamic drive and ample cargo space. For more information, contact us today at White Rock Honda.
