2022 North American Car of the Year  
 

Since making its debut in the USA in the 1970s, the Honda Civic has set and shattered lots of impressive records in terms of sales and accolades. This compact sedan proudly wins the 2022 North American Car of the Year (NACTOY) award. Winning the NACTOY honor for the third time, this affordable model surely offers tremendous value across multiple categories. Available in four trim levels, the 2022 Civic faces sparse competition on the American marketplace. Let's review some of the fascinating features of this award-winning car from the reputable Honda Motor Company.

The 2022 Honda Civic is a Well-Rounded Sedan

Kicking out nearly 160 net horsepower, a 2.0-liter engine block resides under the 2022 Civic's hood. This naturally aspirated, I-4 powertrain cranks out slightly less than 140 pound-feet of torque. High-level models extract 180 total hp and nearly 180 lb-ft of torque from a turbocharged 1.5-L engine block. This inexpensive sedan runs on a continuously variable transmission and front-wheel drive. Paddle shifters expand the capabilities of the sporty CVT system. Two trims can operate on the ECON, Normal, and Sport modes. Additionally, this agile Honda sedan includes the standard Eco Assist and Hill Start Assist.

Installed on three trim levels, a 7-inch color display with touch controls provides superb value in digital technology. You could sync your smartphone with Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, or the Bluetooth HandsFreeLink. Similarly, the HondaLink mobile application comes with several convenient services. Having a field of vision of 7 inches, a digital instrument display is installed on three models. You'll get an extra 3.2 inches of display in the instrument cluster of the Touring model. A 9-inch touch screen is another upgraded technology inside this high-tier trim. You'll get extra utility from the wireless charger and multiple 2.5-amp USB ports inside this well-appointed edition.

Winning the Top Safety Pick+ honor from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the 2022 Civic truly claims elite status in active safety. Very few compact sedans could rival the standard Honda Sensing technologies on this affordable vehicle. You'll get a total of eight factory-activated driving aides on this dependable Honda car, including the Traffic Jam Assist, Road Departure Mitigation, and Adaptive Cruise Control. The high-end Touring model has the exclusive Cross Traffic Monitor for enhanced awareness of the surroundings.
