Highly anticipated by both the media and public alike, the new 2006 Honda Civic is completely redesigned and might become the new benchmark of the compact class. Powered by a four-cylinder engine producing 140 horsepower and 128 lb.-ft. of torque, the new 2006 Civic provides a choice between a five-speed manual or automatic transmission. And, given today’s high gas prices, fuel economy ratings with the automatic are an impressive 30-mpg city and 40-mpg highway. With new styling, a larger and more comfortable interior, and Honda’s legendary reputation for building affordable and reliable cars, there is no reason the new 2006 Civic won’t be a big success.
