Wednesday, November 15, 2000 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER D3 A UT OG RA PH Ant-roJI bars do more than simply keep a vehicle riding ftat while cornering. In the process of the keeping a vehicle level, they help prevent uncontrolled m ovement of the car's weight that m ight 'toss' It out of control (caused b y rapid weight transfer with too little control). Anti-roll bars keep weight m ore evenly distributed am ongst the tires. Here's how they work. How anti-roll bars work oar lire ) W ith o u t a n ti-ro ll b a r 2001 Honda Civic Coupe Honda Civic sets new standards for small cars Since its introduction in 1973, this trend-setting brand small car always seems to raise the quality bar a few notches with every successive model. For 2001, the Civic stable consists of just the two-door coupe and the four-door sedan (the hatchback has been dropped). Each were developed separately (the coupe in the United States, the sedan in Japan) to keep the designs as distinctive as possible. Despite one less body style, the model lineup is nearly as diverse as before. Both the sedan and coupe are available in DX and LX versions. In addition, there's a sportier and more powerful Si. All Civics employ a 1.7litre SOHC four-cylinder engine that's both smaller and lighter than the previous motor. The new powerplant puts out 115 horsepower in the DX and LX cars and 127 horsepower in the Si. A fivespeed manual transmission comes standard on all Civics, while a four-speed automatic is available as an option. Along with new bodies and engines, the Civic's front and rear suspension has been completely revised to leave the back-seat floor area com pletely flat. The price-leader DX cars are understandably light on content, while the LX sedans and Si coupes come with air conditioning, power win dows and locks, cruise con trol and AM/FM/cassette stereo. Finally, the top-draw er Si coupe adds 15-inch wheels, ABS, moonroof and an audio system with CD player.
