| Civic's big attractions are dependability and quality. It's not cheap, but your money buys a big choice of well-made cars that are nice to drive and suitable for smaller families. |

| Straße Test |
| Civic straddles the borderline between small and medium models. The three-door is definitely for smaller families or couples. Five-door hatchbacks and less popular saloons find favour with older buyers. The US-inspired coupe lacks a clearly defined target market. The scarce Aerodeck estate approaches medium car status, though there's not much load space. Choose wisely - probably from the hatchback bodystyles - and you'll find high comfort levels thanks to refined engines, a ride that few rivals can match, and a well laid out cabin finished in good quality materials. Drivers appreciate Civic's character, too. Even the basic 1.4i feels lively, while 1.5i, 1.6i and V-TEC versions thrive on revs and accelerate crisply. VTi versions are discreet 'hot hatches'. Handling is nimble, responsive and safe. Civic's limitations are few: as an older design, its safety rating is poorer than newer European rivals; and security is below modern expectations. |
