Honda has announced that the 2020 Civic line is now on dealer lots around the country and is ready to purchase. The car was redesigned last year and carries over essentially the same.
Sport Trim and Features
The Sport trim is available again for 2020. Honda says that version of the Civic proved to be the second most popular trim. The Sport trim offers a unique combination of style and performance, featuring 18-inch alloy wheels, center-mounted exhaust, and a leather-wrapped steering wheel. Additionally, the Sport trim includes a 7-inch touchscreen display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, making it a tech-savvy choice for modern drivers.
The entire line gets standard Honda Sensing and automatic high beam headlights. Honda Sensing is a suite of safety and driver-assist technologies designed to enhance the driver’s situational awareness and, in some cases, intervene to help avoid a collision or lessen its severity. This includes features like Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS).
Pricing and Variants
Pricing starts at $20,680 for the Civic Sedan LX with a 6-speed manual. The most expensive version is the Civic Sedan Touring with CVT starting at $28,530. Those prices include the $930 destination charge. The Civic lineup offers a variety of trims to cater to different preferences and needs, including the LX, Sport, EX, EX-L, and Touring.
The LX trim, being the base model, still comes well-equipped with features like a multi-angle rearview camera, Bluetooth HandsFreeLink, and streaming audio. The EX trim adds more comfort and convenience with a one-touch power moonroof, heated front seats, and a remote engine start. The EX-L trim further enhances the luxury with leather-trimmed seats and an auto-dimming rearview mirror.
For those who prefer a sportier look and feel, the Civic Coupe is also available. The Coupe offers a more aggressive stance and a two-door design, appealing to younger buyers or those looking for a more dynamic driving experience. The Civic Hatchback, another variant, provides additional cargo space and versatility, making it a practical choice for families or those with active lifestyles.
Performance and Efficiency
Under the hood, the 2020 Civic offers a range of engine options to suit different driving styles. The base engine is a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder that produces 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. For those seeking more power, the 1.5-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine delivers 174 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are designed to offer a balance of performance and fuel efficiency, with the turbocharged engine providing a more exhilarating driving experience.
The Civic’s fuel efficiency is another strong selling point. The 2.0-liter engine achieves an EPA-estimated 30 mpg in the city and 38 mpg on the highway, while the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine can achieve up to 32 mpg in the city and 42 mpg on the highway. These figures make the Civic an economical choice for daily commuting and long-distance driving.
The 2020 Honda Civic continues to be a strong contender in the compact car segment, offering a blend of style, performance, and advanced safety features. With a variety of trims and configurations, there’s a Civic to suit almost any driver’s needs. Whether you’re looking for a practical sedan, a sporty coupe, or a versatile hatchback, the 2020 Civic lineup has something to offer.
