There are various admirers of Volkswagen cars but if any one want more interesting technology coupled with smartness then the Honda Civic is the ultimate choice.
With its European launch taking place only last year, it’s story begins from where the previous model left off, with even better design and technique.
Honda has just released the new 1.6 i-DTEC turbo-charged diesel engine which is the actual pick of the season.
Until recently only naturally inspired petrol engines and a larger 2.2-liter turbo diesel could be found in the Civic range,
However, this the new kid on the block offers average figures that could sell the Civic without a finger being raised.
The new 1.6-liter turbo diesel engine was built from the scratch over a period of five years with the European market in mind. It gives 120 PS & 300 Nm of torque from 2,000rpm, radiating only 94 grams per kilometer of CO2, suitable for the local Romanian buyers who are worried about almost everything.
As a result of the smaller size, this engine is bit lighter than the 2.2-liter unit. This reduced weight on the frontal side makes the
the Civic even crisper. Performance wise it is worth mentioning as well.
Prices for the new Civic 1.6 i-DTEC 120 MT5 start at €18,588 including VAT for the S model.
