The 2022 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hatchback prances onto the hatchback stage with a cool look and adorned by a righteous amount of bells and whistles. The fluidic exterior lines serve up two favorable elements: first, a clean, uncluttered look, and secondly, a noticeable reduction in road and wind noise usually found in much more expensive vehicles.

This Civic is powered by a healthy turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 180 horsepower making 177 lb-ft of torque and at the same time can net up to 36 mpg combined. The continuously variable transmission (CVT) contributes to a smooth, spirited driving experience, assisted by:
MacPherson Strut Front Suspension
Multi-Link Rear Suspension
Variable Ratio Electric Power-Assisted Rack-and-Pinion Steering (EPS)
Front and Rear Stabilizer Bars
