is this 2009 civic facelift???






The 2009 Honda Civic should see no major changes. These compact cars come in 4-door sedan and 2-door coupe body styles and include a gas/electric Hybrid sedan. Sedans and coupes come in DX, LX, EX, EX-L, and sporty Si trims. Also available is the Civic MUGEN Si sedan. DX, LX, EX, and EX-L have a 140-hp 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine. All Si models have a 197-hp 2.0-liter four. The Hybrid combines a gas engine and an electric motor for 110 hp. Hybrids automatically run on one or both of their power sources to balance acceleration and fuel economy. They require no plug-in charging. Available for sale in California and New York and to fleets is the Civic GX, which uses a 113-hp 1.8-liter 4-cylinder engine that runs on compressed natural gas (CNG). DX, LX, EX, and EX-L use a 5-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission. GX models are automatic only. Si only comes with a 6-speed manual. Hybrids have a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Available safety features include ABS, traction control, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. EX-L models have leather upholstery with heated front seats. The MUGEN Si has high-performance tires, sport suspension, and specific trim. A navigation system with voice activation is available on EX, EX-L, Hybrid, and Si.
