Civic Sedan for Play and Work


The Civic sedan has been and continues to be a favorite car on the Honda lineup. Every year this gets improvements to its technology and practicality. In this blog I'm going to highlight some of the things that stuck out to me.


Sitting in the car I feel like everything is at arms length. It is easy to feel comfortable and familiar with the buttons and their locations. Being six feet tall I felt more than comfortable in the front seat of the Civic. I had tons of headroom and legroom with comfortable resting places for my arms.


The driver and passenger are surrounded by compartments that are perfect for wallets, cellphones, pens, change and anything else
.

I found this slot perfect for my wallet, so I could get it out of my back pocket for going in a fast food drive-through or whatever.



Driving this car is fun around the city. Its small size and responsive steering and quick throttle allow this car to be easily manageable in traffic in Chicago or parallel parking. Its also gets 34mpg so those with short commutes will save money.

The cabin is surprisingly quiet at low speeds and minor bumps in the roads are ironed out by the suspension.

This car is great for a first time buyer and someone living in the city.
