Which Engines Does the Civic Have?

The 2023 Civic is available with two engines, each delivering plenty of power to your routine commutes or spontaneous excursions. Let’s look under the hood together!

For starters, the Civic comes with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. With an upgrade to the turbocharged version of the same engine, you’ll have more thoroughbred power: 180 horsepower and 177 lb-ft of torque, to be exact. Both engines offer the responsive acceleration you crave.

Paired to the Civic’s powertrain is a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) that enables nimbleness every time you step on the gas. Paddle shifters also come standard, which allow you to take control. You can downshift for extra passing power or upshift when you’re ready to break loose on the open highway. They’re mounted on the steering wheel for easy access too!

Are you looking for a sedan that matches your mood? The Honda Civic is right for you. This model comes with a 3-mode drive system to adjust your drive to your mojo or your driving situation. It includes an efficient ECON mode, a comfortable Normal mode, and a dynamic Sport mode!

Balancing Power With Efficiency

The Honda Civic is a double threat, and here’s why. On top of its performance-tuned powertrain, this model also equips two fuel-saving technologies on every trim level:

  • Eco Assist™ System – This feature is designed to help drivers maximize fuel efficiency. It utilizes ECON mode and the Driver Feedback System.
  • Idle-Stop – When the Civic is stopped for more than two seconds, this feature will automatically turn off the engine to help conserve fuel. The engine will fire up again when the brakes are released.

These smart technologies will help you stay away from the gas pump longer. So will it’s 12.4-gallon fuel tank capacity. How does the Honda Civic fare in the fuel economy department? Let’s take a closer look:

  • The Honda Civic Sport trim achieves an EPA-estimated 30 city/37 highway MPG*
  • The Honda Civic EX trim achieves an EPA-estimated 33 city/42 highway MPG*
  • The Honda Civic Touring trim achieves an EPA-estimated 31 city/38 highway MPG*

Regardless of which Civic trim level you take home, you’ll enjoy plenty of miles behind the wheel.
