![]() ![]() To get in, you end up putting a fair bit of pressure on your knee. ![]() ![]() The option, is to push the seat all the way back, and stretch out.Īt the rear, the issue with the low slung seating position is amplified because the door doesn’t open too wide. But the co-driver will most definitely feel the pinch, especially over a long journey. This isn’t much of a bother for the driver as the seat height can be adjusted to mitigate this issue. The flat seat base robs you of valuable underthigh support, forcing you to sit in a ‘knees up’ position. Broader occupants will feel a lack of support for their shoulders. If you aren’t used to a low-seating car, you will need a few drives in the Civic before you’re entirely comfortable with the dimensions.Īlso, the front seats feel narrow. With the Civic you get tilt and telescopic adjust for the steering wheel, and the seat can be adjusted 8 ways to help you get into a nice driving position. But we do miss the drama of the old Civic’s split dashboard that housed a digital speedometer in the upper half. It’s that familiar spaceship-esque feeling with the cool-blue and red lighting in the instrument cluster and a central console that’s tilted ever-so-slightly towards the driver. The seating position is familiarly low and the dashboard wraps itself around you. The feeling that the CIvic is driver focussed hits you once you get inside the cabin. While the design is noticeably busier, we feel will look appealing for years to come.ĭeja vu. On the whole, the Civic’s design continues to be a strong point much like the older generation. The XL-sized triangular taillamps that flow onto the bootlid look super cool at night as the portion of the tail lamp on the boot lights up as well. However, it is the widest, and by a fair margin at that. Honda’s Civic isn’t the tallest when you compare it to its peers. Full-LED headlamps and that awesome-looking set of 17-inch machine-finished alloy wheels add to its wow-factor. And much like the old car, the Civic has a low-slung design, giving it a sporty ready-to-go stance. ![]() Should we be calling it a sedan? Because when you view it from the side, it looks more like a notchback with a raised rump than a conventional three-box sedan. Familiar Honda elements including the large grille dunked in chrome, honeycomb detailing in the vents and crisp character lines find their way onto this sedan too.Īctually, hang on. If it was the battery wouldn't it still start with a jump start? So the starter or alternator? I am out of ideas, going to have to uber to work the next three nights.Īny suggestions before I resign myself to shelling out for a tow?If the Civic could talk, we’re sure the first words it’d say would be ‘Look at me!’ It looks properly swanky, and a direct descendant of the posh Honda Accord. Key goes back to accessory and dash comes on again as if initially turned to accessory. Trying to start it I hear a faint t t t t t t, and all lights go out. Accessory lights dash, dome, headlights, again weakly. I have disconnected than and plugged it back OEM to eliminate that as a unknown potential reason for problems. Which makes no sense, everything I've read says on pretty much any car made after 2010 a reverse polarity would blow the main fuse. I checked all of the fuses in the engine fuse box, none are blown. My car however refuses to start even when connected to a donor car battery the right way. Got their car jumped and its fine, battery just depleted all the way. Well I work 12hr night shifts at the hospital, and its dark outside, and my brain isn't really on yet. My car initially won't start, I try to jump it with a neighbors car (a civic as well). I'll take you through the whole sequence of events. ![]()
