The Honda Civic has been around for a very long time and has actually helped propel this particular car-maker to its peak of popularity.  Today, the Honda Civic comes in a plethora of options that makes this singe model a tremendous option for an incredible range of different people.  What types of Civic are available?  Which is right for you?  Whether you’ve got a “green” streak, are a student, have to shuttle your family around or simply want something fun (and economical) to drive, you’ll find there’s a Civic out there for you.

Civic Coupe – Imbued with just 2 doors and award-winning style, the Civic coupe is a great choice for almost anyone.  With Honda’s 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine (putting out 140 horses), the Civic is capable of up to 36 mpg in highway driving.  You’ll also find it’s available with a wide range of options and upgrades, such as satellite navigation, Bluetooth, and a USB audio interface (for your iPod or other MP3 player).

The Civic Sedan – If you need 4 doors, the Civic has you covered here, as well.  You’ll find that the civic sedan brings the same 4-cylinder engine as the 2-door version, but it provides a stiffer suspension, and also offers leather seating, in addition to the options listed above.

Civic Si – The Civic Si has been one of the most popular models Honda offers for quite some time, particularly with those who have a need for speed and performance.  The current generation Si’s provide 197 horsepower, via a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine, as well as a race-inspired six-speed transmission.  To top that off, you’ll find 17-inch alloy rims (as opposed to the 16’s on the sedan and coupe), as well as unique styling.

Of course, one of the most recent innovations from Honda is the fact that the Si is now available as a sedan.  This version offers the same performance and capabilities of its 2-door sibling, but provides more room for extra passengers and a few other beefed up options.

Honda Civic Hybrid – If you’re feeling a bit green, then the Civic Hybrid is the model for you.  You’ll find that this vehicle is capable of attaining about 45 mpg on the highway, and reducing emissions by a startling amount.  Of course, the fact that it shares the same styling as its traditional brethren in the Civic lineup means that you get a great looking hybrid, as well.

Civic Natural Gas Vehicle – If the hybrid isn’t your thing, but you still want to do something for the environment, then the Civic GX (Natural Gas Vehicle) might be a good choice.  You’ll find a 113-horse engine, almost no emissions whatsoever and a great look that provides you with a stylish, green ride.

As you can see, the Civic comes in so many iterations and types that you’ll be able to find the perfect option for your needs, no matter what you require from a vehicle.  Style, performance and flair are available in several packages.
