Civic LX ($21,700) comes with a naturally-aspirated 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine and a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).

Also standard is an easy-to-use 7-inch color touchscreen with Apple CarPlay ® and Android Auto™ integration, push-button start, partial digital instrumentation and LED headlights.

Civic Sport ($23,100) enhances the LX improvements with its own styling flair featuring bespoke 18-inch wheels with low-profile tires, black exterior accents, and a chrome exhaust finisher.
