The Eleventh Generation Honda Civic (USA) gives you a choice of Sedan and Hatchback 5-door bodies, with the hatchback offering easier access when you need to load bulky items.
Among the Honda Civic (USA) engine choices, the turbocharged 1.5 CVT offers useful midrange pull in both bodies, while the naturally aspirated 2.0 CVT hatchback needs more revs for brisk acceleration. These gasoline examples pair front-wheel drive with a continuously variable transmission, which adjusts ratios smoothly but can hold engine revs high when you accelerate hard.
