In a press release from earlier today, Honda announced the impending arrival of the all-new 2016 Civic Coupe.
Following in the footsteps of the Civic Sedan, recently named the 2016 North American Car of the Year, the all-new Civic Coupe delivers many of the same features in an enthusiast-oriented two-door configuration. With an all-new vehicle architecture, the Civic Coupe offers a refined and roomy cabin, enhanced connectivity technology, and a suite of advanced driver-assistive technologies.
In addition to an upgraded chassis and refined handling, the Civic Coupe also offers a variety of powertrain options from which to choose: a 174-horsepower 1.5-liter DOHC turbo engine with CVT, a 158-horsepower 2.0-liter i-VTEC paired with CVT, and the same 2.0-liter engine with a six-speed manual transmission.
"This new Civic Coupe exemplifies Honda’s focus on fun-to-drive character with two powerful engine options and a chassis tuned specifically for driving fun," said Jeff Conrad, senior vice president and general manager of the Honda Division. "As the second model in our sportiest and most ambitious Civic lineup ever, the coupe sets the bar for performance, refinement and connectivity in the compact coupe segment."
