Overivew
Canada's perennial best-selling passenger car is significantly improved for 2006 with the introduction of the all-new, eighth-generation Civic that offers increased performance, a stylistic exterior design, refined interior, class-leading standard safety features, four distinct models for a wide range of customers, and an overall increased level of vehicle quality with a fun-to-drive character. As the Civic has been re-invented throughout its previous seven generations (with more than 1.2 million Civics sold in Canada since 1973), each new model has consistently set new standards in the automotive industry with its innovative packaging, attractive styling, high fuel economy, low emissions, fun-to-drive performance, reliability and safety. The eighth-generation 2006 model amplifies the defining character of the Civic with a long list of Honda technology and engineering innovations, resulting in four distinct models that are pure Honda, exclusively Civic and outside the boundaries of traditional small car thinking. The 2006 Civic delivers on Honda's commitment to deliver the highest quality at a reasonable price.
