WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING ABOUT THE 2014 HONDA CIVIC:
With its reputation for reliability, safety, comfort and excellent resale still intact, the 2014 Honda Civic remains one of the best small-car values around
The Honda Civic has long been one of the better-driving cars in its class, and this tradition continues with the latest version’s precise, well-weighted steering and confident handling. The Civic also offers one of the most comfortable and composed rides in the class. With last year’s refinements, it’s also pretty quiet at freeway speeds, something you couldn’t say about older Civics.
With this revamped Civic, Honda has made major gains in refinement that translate to a far more pleasant cabin experience. Compared to the pared-down 2012 model, the current Civic’s body has been stiffened with more high-strength steel, side pillars have been upgraded, and thicker windshield and front door glass have been applied. There’s also more soundproofing for the dash, floor, doors, and rear tray. The difference is that you barely hear the engine when it’s idling, road noise has been cut way down, and the softer dash materials make even the acoustics inside feel a bit softer.
