Interested in getting a compact car? Why not get a Honda Civic 2019, which has been raved about and is the perpetual fan favorite of many drivers. If some car makers have seemed to lose interest in the ubiquitous compact car category, which Honda hasn’t abandoned but continued to make it better. Other automakers have shifted to the sub-compact market with mostly paltry engines. But, not Honda which constantly upgraded, and developed their Civic series continually.

Though this segment seems to be in the blurred spot but still retains the bigger dimensions, which is a step away from mid-sized sedans. When roads are cluttered by half-hearted 1.0 or 1.5 liters engines, the Honda Civic soldiers on with the venerable 1.6 to 1.8-liter powertrains. Honda is the default choice in this compact car segment, which is only a step away from 2.0-liter powertrains.
