Honda Hybrid – You Can’t Go Wrong

Honda is known for making quality, reliable vehicles, and the Honda Civic Hybrid is no different.   

The Civic Hybrid stands out among other vehicles in its class, and some of the cars that were taken for a test drive were far less satisfying than this one.  There are no irritating little faults such as eccentric satnav or warning lights for non-existent problems or windows that wouldn’t close properly.   

Hybrid technology means the car has an electric motor running in concert with a petrol engine and stores energy otherwise wasted, such as under braking, in batteries to later help power the car under, for example, hard acceleration.  This helps save fuel and cuts emissions. 

The hybrid technology was first seen in the Honda Insight and since then thousands of Honda Civic Hybrids, hybrid Toyota Priuses and Lexuses have been sold and all with no problems. 

The Civic is an ordinary car with ordinary features and gives 100kms on around 7 litres of fuel.  It has a decent boot and can accommodate four people comfortably.  It is not a car with lots of fancy gadgets and smart stuff on the outside, but it sure is one hell of a car if you want a reliable vehicle.
