We're on the highway to the east of Germany and we have been traveling at 130 miles per hour. Honda Civic Si, and the steering feels taut and responsive under our hands, tracks like the tracks. Car looks familiar. Actually very similar to a German car.


Developed in 2002 a lot of development costs to cover the newly opened Honda's European R & D facility in Frankfurt, Germany was held, and also Si, Swindon, UK Japanese car assembled at the factory.

Anyway, the three-door Civic hatch was intended as a model for Japanese and European markets, so it's no coincidence that the character we know. And this, in the reputation of the most successful incarnation of the Civic is a good thing. Euro Type-R Civic who borrowed more than the si, Honda's variable valve timing and lift system (VTEC) transmission field, and more by providing by changing the intake valve timing I-VTEC 2.0-liter engine uses. kam. Which is the next step in valve control, I-VTEC, valve timing allows optimum throughout the range upgrade and not just the VP, but also for NOx reduction exhaust gas recirculation control valve keeps the heat on top of the other to a conflict.

Elevation of 1.6 to 2.0 liters displacement, despite the motor output side we remember from the previous 160-hp on the ceiling remains. This means that Mensa means that you don't need a permanent place at the table, peak torque, a 20% increase in torque throughout the operating range of the engine and means more.

Peak work periods dropped to 6800 rpm, but the midrange throttle response is much more powerful than the last side, and even the guy who screams at high rpm scream of us, we think they're going to ruin it. The same Honda from 0 to 60 mph acceleration (7.6 seconds) waiting for, however we believe is true, if we think that American drivers will appreciate to make more traction at low revs.

The engine, the wheels to the right, a shield-shaped from the base of the middle console, red stitched leather sleeve is controlled by a five-speed gearbox is connected with; a car versatile, and very sweet gear change mechanism. Power presentation Torquay, despite the collapse makes a lot of fun driving sporty gear ratios pretty close.

Cream-colored face with instrument indicators, moody ripped fabric and black suede with pillows comfortable sport buckets, a center console covered with leather and coated like the interior design of wheel Silver paint. Which has a volume of 49 cubic foot rear compartment and the front seats are surprisingly large and can comfortably accommodate the long drives of approximately 36 cubic feet is available. The premise is that four cubes in the cargo section of the even offer.

Like every new Honda Civic also has improved structural stiffness over its predecessor. In this case, according to Honda Engineers, the torsion of the 95% harder and 22% more bending direncliyor. In addition, the new car weighs a few hundred pounds compared to the old Civic, even though Honda, high-tensile Steel the use of 44 is going ポ says. Electric Power Steering relieves the weight of the vehicle more and more. And, Honda spokesman say, all the body cavities is smaller and the assembly tolerances are more stringent.

Indeed, the new hatchback feels like a bank vault like the feeling of solidity and Silence while on the move. CD four-speaker stereo speakers powered by an engine ever so subtle pate and a Sunroof for less field loss of equipment, including thanks to a high level, and don't trust yourself.

Chassis, freezing, mainly in the ways of the middle West stretched the rear shock rebound valve of the journey to question how good it would be on the road with feels safe and controlled. Hardware, civics and the Acura looks like the new way of the other; and the front links in the rear and calibrations, according to chassis specialist yuichiro yanagasawa almost Euro Type-R Civic is similar. It's no wonder that is similar to European cars.

Exterior styling, Ford Focus SVT and the drift of fog in this market from European Civic looks will allow you to fight against it. Legendary Honda DQR (durability, quality and reliability), which is on the side of civil society, Si, sales of 12,000 units goes on sale in March 2002 of year when it is very difficult to reach the target finds. Could you wait for a long time now?
