Get into the new Honda Civic NEW INCENTIVES. Continued from Page 14 goes, this would be a tough nut to start with," I told my son. And, what's more, with a declared 70,838 units sold in 2007, the Honda Civic has taken the number one spot as Canada's top-selling passenger car for the tenth year in a row. "We're pleased to see the Civic achieve this 'car of the decade' milestone," said Jim Miller, executive vice president of Honda Canada. "The Civic's popularity with Canadians is due to its fuel efficiency, full complement of standard safety features and fun-to-drive character, which speak to the Honda benefit of quality cars that are green, safe and fun." The latest generation Civic was most recently improved for the 2006 model year. Revisions included three new powertrains, a class-leading list of standard safety equipment and refined styling inside and out. I prefer the Acura CSX's round-lamped rear to the Civic's horseshoe-shaped taillight layout but that's just nit-picking and the sharper lines and edges of the new Civic compliment the sleek, smooth exterior. Inside, chalk one up for Honda designers who gambled on a revolutionary two-tier display design, placing a round tachometer near the steering wheel and moving the digital speedo readout up and closer to the windshield. When this design was first unveiled, I heard one automotive wag declare it "unsellable" but I guess we can simply refer him to the recordbreaking numbers mentioned earlier. It's a design layout that's easy to get used to, bolstered by wellplaced controls, a driver-oriented cockpit and an interior ambiance that, once again, boasts those new levels of refinement. In fact, we can say that the Civic has become so refined that Honda had to slip a new entry-level model, the Fit, underneath it to complete the lineup. The 2008 Honda Civic comes in three flavours. First, in a traditionally-powered model harnessing a 140 hp 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine and offering a wide variety of standard equipment, trim levels and options. Secondly, there's the hybrid version featuring the combined output of a 1.3-litre i-VTEC engine and Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) technology to achieve fuel economy ratings of 4.7/4.3 L/100 km (city/highway) along with ultra low emissions. And lastly, as tested here, the brand new 2008 Civic Si Sedan, a four-door version that was introduced just last fall to partner with the existing Si Coupe as a performance alternative for Civic fans. The Si is powered by a 2.0-litre 16-valve DOHC i-VTEC four-cylinder engine and it makes 197 hp @ 7800 rpm and 139 lb-ft of peak torque. Just looking at those numbers you can tell that this is a free-spinning, high-revver with Formula One Continued on Page 16 THE ALL NEW 2008 SX4 SEDAN Air Conditioning / Power Windows / Power Locks / Power Mirrors / Remote Keyless Entry $ DOWN PAYMENT 0 LEASE FROM $ 205 @ 1.5% ** FOR 60 MONTHS COOL KID HAULER BORN TO SHOP BORN TO DRIVE RALLY BORN SUNNY DAYS RAINY DAYS SNOWY DAYS WORK DAYS PLAY DAYS WIND IN YOUR HAIR SUN ON YOUR FACE DUAL FRONT AIRBAGS SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS ABS WITH BRAKE ASSIST AND EBD POWER STEERING POWER WINDOWS QUICK NIMBLE PEPPY FUN WOOSH!
