The Honda Civic 2006 was selected the Motor Trend ® Car of the Year. After a comprehensive evaluation, it scored over and above the other 28 contenders that were evaluated for overall value and significance in the market. The Honda Civic emerged as a clear leader in practically all aspects that one looks for in a car whether it engineering excellence, new technology, design, functionality or value for money. The 2006 Honda Civic has all the features that one would want in a car. Far removed from the box like shape of its older version, and an improved design and facilities over the 1992 model, the 2006 Honda Civic is the best buy in its price range.

Practically in all its features, design and performance, it is an improvement that can be described in only one word: fantabulous. It is futuristic; it is sleek and dynamic and at the same time looks attractive.

Its up to date satellite navigation system is a boon for the driver who is planning a trip or is lost in the suburbs. With eight gigabytes of memory, it provides convenient directions using a series of 24 global positioning satellites.

On the performance front, the 2006 Honda Civic has 140 horsepower 1.8 liter i-VTEC engine with a Drive-by-Wire Throttle System which gives it more power than ever before. The use of the latest technologies has made the 2006 Honda Civic more fuel efficient. Under normal conditions it gives an average of 40 miles per gallon on highways and 30 miles per gallon in city driving.

Despite the power and zip that its 140 horse power engine gives, it still earns a rating of an Advanced Technology Partial Zero-Emission Vehicle (AT-PZEV). The Honda Civic 2006 now has continuously variable transmission (CVT) as standard equipment, which switches off all its four cylinders and runs only on its electric motor in certain cruising situations. This translates into a scene where you get power when you want it, as well as a saving on gas consumption. With the price of gas rising, depending upon your usage, the saving on gas can be a considerable amount.

On the style front, the Honda Civic 2006 has a new multi-tiered instrument panel and a sophisticated audio system. For the security of the driver and passengers alike, there are front and side curtain airbags. To add flavor to the cake, the Honda Civic 2006 comes with a 5 year/ 60,000-mile limited power-train warranty just like every other Honda car. The battery pack has an 8-year/80,000-mile warranty, and the all emission-related equipment have more extensive warranties.

To cut a long story short, the Honda Civic is an affordable and reliable car, has been highly rated by automotive experts and is good value for money.
