Today, Honda issued a press release announcing the arrival of the all-new 2016 Civic Coupe. Featuring many of the same attributes of the Civic Sedan, itself named 2016 North American Car of the Year, the Civic Coupe offers an array of premium technologies, including the Honda Sensing suite of safety and driver-assistance systems.
Under the hood, the Civic Coupe is motivated by three 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.”
On sale March 15, the all-new Civic Coupe carries a starting MSRP of $19,050.
