Honda enhances Civic for 2019

-

The 2019 Honda Civic Sedan and Coupe receive a number of upgrades aimed at further solidifyin­g Civic’s status as Canada’s retail best-selling passenger car.

The refreshed Civic Sedan and Civic Coupe feature new design cues inside and out, standard Honda Sensing technology for all trims, and a new Display Audio system with physical buttons and a volume knob.

Civic Sedan and Coupe buyers will also have a new Sport trim to consider, featuring unique styling, upsized 18-inch wheels and tires, enhanced handling and value-added feature content.

The 2019 Civic Sedan and Coupe both feature refreshed styling that subtly updates the highly popular 10th-generation Civic design.

The restyled lower bumper gives Civic a wider look and is complement­ed by a new blacked-out headlight treatment.

The Honda-signature “wing” design on the grille also gets a new gloss black treatment on Sedan and Coupe.

On Touring trims, the LED headlights have been upgraded with a new design to give the lights a wider and longer beam. The new, more aggressive tone is given an air of sophistica­tion by the subtle use of chrome accents on the front bumper.

The 2019 Civic Sedan and Coupe continue to offer classleadi­ng interior volume that rivals many midsize cars.

Front seat passengers enjoy generous amounts of leg and headroom and a cleverly designed center console offers a surprising amount of flexible storage space.

For the 2019 model year, Civic Sedan and Coupe models feature the Honda Sensing suite of safety and driver-assistive technologi­es as standard equipment on all trims.

Honda Sensing includes Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow, Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) incorporat­ing Forward Collision Warning (FCW), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) and Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) incorporat­ing Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Additional­ly, all Honda Civic models receive automatic high beams as part of their Honda Sensing package.

The 2019 Honda Civic also features a long list of standard active and passive safety features, including Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with traction control, driver and passenger front and side airbags, side-curtain airbags with rollover sensor, Electronic Brake Distributi­on (EBD), Brake Assist and Honda’s next-generation Advanced Compatibil­ity Engineerin­g (ACE) body structure.
