5 Reasons Why the 2016 Honda Civic is KBB’s Best Buys Overall Winner

2016 Honda Civic Bradenton

Kelley Blue Book has declared the 2016 Honda Civic as its Overall Best Buy. The redesigned 2015 Honda Civic took several awards in the small car arena last year and this year’s Civic is no different. KBB singled out this year’s Civic as stylish, refined and tech-savvy, and for its new powertrain giving the car power and efficiency for a price under $20,000. These are several reasons why Bradenton consumers should look at the 2016 Honda Civic if they are looking for a new compact car.

2016 Honda Civics Larger Size

The 2016 Honda Civic is larger than last year’s model, and this increased size allows for more space. Space for passengers, cargo, and whatever else you might want to bring with you. KBB stated that the comfort and convenience that comes with this larger size made it seem the Civic could pass as a mid-size.

2016 Honda Civics Fuel Efficiency

Although the car is bigger, the material used by Honda engineers is lighter, making an already fuel efficient car more so. The 2016 Honda Civic gets up to 42 mpg highway*, a feat not met by too many cars on the road right now. Bradenton consumers can get the Civic with a six-speed manual transmission or CVT.

2016 Honda Civics Technology

The two-tier dash was replaced with a much simpler touchscreen display, featuring apps like Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Also available with the Civic is Honda Sensing, a safety feature Honda has rolled out on many of its cars and trucks.

2016 Honda Civics Safety Features

Honda’s vehicles are already safe, but improvements in technology have allowed things like LaneWatch to eliminate blind spots. Again, the driver assist safety suite, Honda Sensing, is an option and includes adaptive cruise control, automated braking, and lane departure functions to help prevent collisions.

2016 Honda Civics Overall Performance

Powered by a 2.0-liter, 16-valve, four-cylinder engine to give the Civic 158 horsepower, this car has some power for a compact. The turbocharged 1.5 liter double-overhead-cam, direct-injected four-cylinder engine for the premium Civic models delivers 174 horsepower.

There are many reasons to look at the 2016 Honda Civic as the compact of choice. These are five reasons, but another one is that MSRP is $18,640. Not bad in today’s market.
