Compare the 2017 Honda Civic Trims

Honda Civic Sedan

Honda Civic Hatchback

Honda Civic Coupe

The 2017 Honda Civic comes in sedan, coupe, and hatchback formats, but the different body styles are dependent on the trim level you choose. For example, the sedan version is the most widely available, in six trim levels: LX, EX, EX-T, EX-L, Touring, and Si. Meanwhile, there are three hatchback-specific models: Sport, Sport Touring, and Type R. And finally, the Coupe is available in the same trims as the sedan, save for the EX trim – this one is not available as a coupe.

The main distinction between the 2017 Honda Civic trims is the features each has to offer. The LX starts the lineup off with technology like a 5-inch central display and Bluetooth connectivity, and the Sport model gets the same, plus a leather-wrapped steering wheel and more aerodynamic bodywork. As you move through the lineup, you’ll get smartphone app integration on the LX, heated front seats on the EX-T, leather upholstery and an integrated navigation system on the EX-L, the Honda Sensing safety suite on the Sport Touring and Touring trims, and performance-oriented features on the Si.

Often, your car-buying decision may be based on the performance the vehicle is capable of, and that’s why it’s important to note the distinct powertrain offerings on the 2017 Honda Civic. The introductory LX model runs on a 2.0L 4-cylinder engine that generates 158 hp and 138 lb-ft of torque via either a six-speed manual or a continuously variable transmission. When you step up to the midlevel Honda Civic EX-T, you also get a performance boost in the form of a turbocharged 1.5L 4-cylinder, which is good for 174 hp and 167 lb-ft of torque with the manual transmission. At the top of the lineup is the Civic Si, which promises 205 hp and 192 lb-ft of torque from a more powerful variant of the 1.5L engine. The 2017 Honda Civic promises confident, capable performance, regardless of the trim you select.
