The Honda Civic Sedan has been redesigned for 2009 to offer more performance, value, technology, and styling. The 2009 Honda Civic Sedan is a four-door five-passenger, front-wheel drive vehicle. Honda has added two new trims to the 2009 Civic Sedan line-up – the DX Value Package (DX –VP) and the sporty LX-S.

In DX, DX-VP, LX, LX-S, EX and EX-L trim levels, the 2009 Honda Civic Sedan is motivated by the responsive 140-horsepower 1.8-liter i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine that can be paired with either a smooth-shifting 5-speed automatic or the 5-speed manual transmission (MT).

Estimated fuel economy* of the 2009 Honda Civic Sedan with MT is 26/34 mpg (City/Highway) and with the automatic, it is 25/36 mpg (City/Highway)*. The Civic Sedan qualifies as an Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle.

The 2009 Honda Civic Sedan gets fresh exterior design and luxurious leather interiors. Standard exterior features include restyled front grille; revised head- and taillight colors; steeply raked windshield; sleek lines; short front and rear overhangs; 15-inch wheels on DX and DX-VP and 16-inch alloy wheels on other trims; and two-speed intermittent windshield wipers.

The inside of the 2009 Honda Civic Sedan EX-L comes with heated front seats, while the new LX-S gets exclusive silver-stitched black upholstery. The two-tier instrument panel; a flat rear floor; tachometer; power windows; storage bins; and a 12-volt power outlet are standard amenities offered on the 2009 Honda Civic Sedan. Technological enhancements include new USB Audio Interface on the EX and EX-L, and also optional Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with voice recognition and Bluetooth Hands-Free Link.
