The Honda Civic EJ refers to the sixth-generation Civic coupe models, produced from 1996 to 2000, specifically in North America. These models were based on the Civic’s EK platform but were designated as EJ in VIN codes. The Civic EJ came with various engine options, including the D16Y8 in the EX trim, a 1.6L SOHC VTEC engine producing around 127 hp, making it one of the more powerful options in the non-performance lineup. The EJ Civics were available with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission, with the manual being preferred by enthusiasts for its engaging driving experience. The Civic EJ was popular for its lightweight, simple design and was highly modifiable, making it a favorite in the tuner community. Its styling featured a sporty, compact coupe design with a clean, aerodynamic look and rounded edges. The interior was basic but functional, with driver-friendly controls and optional features like power windows, power locks, and a sunroof in higher trims. The EJ Civic remains popular among car enthusiasts for its tunability, reliability, and classic Honda appeal.
