Posts Tagged ‘2009 Honda Civic Hybrid’

The 2009 Honda Civic Hybrid gets slightly freshened exterior styling and some new features. This gas/electric hybrid compact car comes as a 4-door sedan. It combines a 1.3-liter gas engine and an electric motor for 110 hp. The Hybrid can run on one or both of its power sources.

Most of the time, however, the gas engine shuts off at a stop and restarts again when the driver releases his or her foot from the brake pedal. It requires no plug-in charging. This sole transmission is a continuously variable automatic (CVT).

Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. A navigation system with voice activation is available. Newly offered for 2009 are a wireless cell-phone link and leather upholstery.
