Used Honda Civic Car

Used Honda Civic Car Honda Civic gas mileage must be really good! Most top ten automobile rankings based on fuel efficiency have put this model on their lists, with majority of them ranking the Civic as the best car in terms of fuel economy.


Honda civic gas mileage has been touted as the best in the current market. The 2008 hybrid model in particular has received rave reviews for its fuel efficiency. It records a combined EPA mileage rating of 42 mpg - 45 mpg highway mileage and 40 mpg city mileage.
For young people – mostly males with fluff stuck to their upper lip, the Honda Civic and it’s hatchback rivals represent the cheapest way of getting a car, insuring it and then thrashing it to within an inch of it’s life every night in a McDonalds car park.Much like the punk movement, it’s the DIY aesthetic of personalising your car from a million different options and standing out from the crowd that appeals. With its bullet proof reliability and extensive catalogue of performance and styling parts, the Honda Civic has simultaneously become the favoured choice at both ends of the circle of life – but for very different reasons.
If you have an old Honda Civic, you can convert it to an EV at your home garage. Even if you do not have one, it does cost a lot to buy a used Civic. The idea of the electric car retrofitting is to take out the internal combustion engine and replace it with an electric motor. The motor is connected to the existing transmission unit. A series of deep cycle batteries will be used to power the motor.An old Honda Civic can be a great EV because of its compact design and light weight. Since an electric car would have to carry its own power source in the batteries, less weight is better. An electric car without unnecessary load will be able to travel further before it has to be recharged. An average electric car with 10 to 15 units of batteries can cover up to 100 miles before recharge.
