2010 Honda Civic Sedan

A 4-door, 5-passenger family sedan, the 2010 Honda Civic Sedan is available in DX, DX-VP, LX, LX-S, EX and EX-L trims. After a full redesign in 2009, the Civic Coupe drives into 2010 largely as a carryover model. Commanding full-size sedan presence, high-performance look and feel, and wide-opening doors for ease of entry and exit mark the Civic Sedan's exterior while the interior features a number comfort and convenience amenities including air conditioning, state-of-the-art audio system, Bluetooth and navigation systems.

Powertrain And Performance

The 2010 Civic Sedan is motivated by a responsive 140-horsepower 1.8-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine teamed with either a standard smooth-shifting 5-speed manual transmission or the available 5-speed automatic. The manual transmission models deliver 26/34/29 and the automatic equipped ones yield 25/36/ 29 mpg city/highway/combined*. The Civic Sedan offers a cargo volume of 11.5 cubic feet.
