Civic EX

The Honda Civic EX represents the mid-level trim across multiple Civic generations, offering enhanced equipment and features over base models while maintaining Honda reputation for reliability and efficiency. Across its long production history, the EX trim has consistently provided features like upgraded audio systems, power accessories, and improved interior appointments. The fifth-generation (1992-1995) Civic EX featured a 1,590cc engine producing 125 bhp at 6,600 rpm and 106 lb-ft at 5,200 rpm with 9.2:1 compression ratio, establishing the performance-oriented character of the EX designation. The sixth-generation (1996-2000) added a CD player as standard equipment for 1999, while maintaining the balance of efficiency and performance that defined the nameplate.

More recent generations continued the EX tradition with modern powertrains and technology. The eleventh-generation (2022-2024) Civic EX features comprehensive safety equipment, advanced infotainment, and refined driving dynamics representing Honda latest engineering. Throughout its evolution, the Civic EX has served as the sweet spot in the Civic lineup: more equipment than base models, less expensive than top-tier Si or Type R variants, providing practical daily transportation with engaging driving characteristics. The combination of Honda legendary reliability, efficient powertrains, excellent resale value, and comprehensive features at competitive pricing has made the Civic EX one of the best-selling compact cars across multiple decades, appealing to buyers seeking sensible transportation without sacrificing driving enjoyment.
