As the generations of Honda Civic changed, the worldwide popularity of this model steadily grew, new manufactures constantly opened in different countries. The seventh generation has opened a new page in the history of the car. Presented in several types of bodies (3- and 5-door hatchbacks, a sedan and a coupe), it received a different front suspension, in addition, it was possible to increase the interior space, providing greater comfort to the rear passengers. In Russia, the most popular were sedans and 5-door hatchbacks as the most practical types of bodies. The 3-door Civic was in demand not only in its classic version, but also in the modification of the Civic Type R - the sports derivative of this popular model, armed with a 200-horsepower engine.
 The Honda Civic sedan in Russia was offered in four trim levels with a five-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed automatic. The more expensive equipment is distinguished by climate control instead of air conditioning, heated front seats and alloy wheels, there is an electric sunroof (its buttons are located a little unusual: on the front panel to the left of the steering wheel). All Honda Civic 4D were equipped with an electric power amplifier, power accessories, an alarm system with an immobilizer, a interior with fabric trim, rear window and mirror heating. Civic 3D is equipped with alloy wheels, an electric sunroof, an alarm system with an immobilizer, a fabric-trimmed interior and an “audio preparation” consisting of two pairs of speakers and an antenna integrated into the rear window. Civic 3D and Type R differ from the sedan not only in the shape of the body, but also in the design of the front of the cabin (another dashboard with a "tide" on which the gearshift lever is mounted). In addition, the Honda Civic Type R features a sports package: front, rear spoilers, side kit. The Honda Civic 3D received the same 1.6-liter 16-valve engine as the 4-door version. This is a SOHC VTEC II engine (110 hp) with multi-point injection PGM-FI. As for the Type R version, a two-liter engine with 200 hp is installed here. at 7400 rpm The maximum speed of the car with it is 235 km / h, it takes only 6.5 seconds to accelerate from standstill to 100 km / h, while the fuel consumption in combined driving mode is only 8.9 l / 100 km. The main technical innovation of the car is a lightweight engine flywheel, which, according to Honda Motor Co., allowed to reduce acceleration time from standstill to 100 km / h by two tenths of a second. In addition to these engines offered for Russian customers, this generation Civic can be equipped with other versions of gasoline engines or direct injection diesel engines. In addition, there are modifications with a hybrid petrol-electric power unit of 1.3 liters (90 liters. s.), but all of them were not officially delivered to Russia.

 In this generation of Honda Civic, MacPherson struts are now used instead of a double wishbone design due to changes in layout. The rear suspension remains unchanged. However, the essence of Civic’s character didn’t affect this much - as the manufacturer claims, he remained the same “hondian” tough, sporty. Other innovations include the use of an electric amplifier, as well as a change in the design of the exhaust system - by moving the resonator to the rear, it was possible to make the floor in the cabin completely flat.

 The increase in the safety level of the Honda Civic compared to previous generations was mainly due to the wider use of airbags - there are four of them (two front and two side). At the same time, all versions are equipped with three-point seat belts, door stiffeners, ABS system. Passive safety of the car at altitude - according to the results of crash tests EuroNСАР in 2001, he received four out of five stars.

 The seventh generation Honda Civic has become the most popular in the entire previous history of the model. On the world stage, he became one of the best-selling cars. Its popularity in Russia is largely due to the success of previous generations, and the new Civic was able to demonstrate the very best qualities of the model: power, reliability and economy of engines, “assembled” suspension, comfort.
