HISTORY历史
The Civic 5-door range beat its Rover clone to market with a launch in March 1995.公民5-击败其门射程孚无性市场推出了1995年3月. Equipment levels were strong from the start (better than its British rivals), with even the least expensive entry-level 1.4i version getting front full-sized driver and passenger airbags, power steering, central locking, an engine immobiliser, electric windows, wood finish interior trim and an electric glass sunroof.装备水平从强(比其竞争对手英国)连最便宜的入门级1.4i版越来越战线全面型司机及乘客气袋、动力转向、中央锁、发动机防盗、电动窗、浪木、整理室内电动玻璃天窗.

These included two 1.6-litre variants - the plush 1.6 LS and the sporty 1.6 SR, with its 120mph-plus ?VTEC?这包括两个1.6公升变-长毛绒一月六日一月六日镑和潇洒简,其120mph多?电子总量? engine.发动机. There was also a 1.5-litre version, the 1.5i VTEC-E, which, with its clever variable valve timing engine, was economical enough to take on diesel rivals.还有1.5升版本,1.5i总量的娥,以其聪明可变气门发动机为节约柴油采取足够的对手.
A high-level brake light was added to all models in October 1995 but the real changes came with the introduction of second generation versions in June 1997.高级刹车轻加入所有型号1995年10月,但真正的变化来推出二代版本在1997年6月.

WHAT YOU GET 什么才叫 
The neat if not memorable exterior styling will be a matter of personal taste.如果不是难忘的整齐外观造型将属于个人的品味. It certainly won't put you off.它当然不会让你过. The interior meanwhile, is spacious and comfortable, if not ultimately roomy enough to justify rather hopeful Honda aspirations that their new car might steal sales from Mondeos and Vectras in the next class up.内政部同时,宽敞舒适,如果没有足够的理由相当宽敞最终愿望,他们希望本田新车销售可能从窃取、vectrasmondeos在下一阶级. Pitch it against the Vauxhall Astra, Ford Focus and Peugeot 306 however, and you'll have no complaints.它针对沥青路上雅特、标致306、福特焦点,你就会有不抱怨.
In fact, the exemplary driving position, sweet-shifting gearbox and careful dashboard design leave a distinctly favourable impression.其实,模范驾驶位置、甜移变速箱、精心设计的仪表板留下良好印象鲜明. It's also hard not to be impressed by the willing nature of the various engines on offer, despite the fact that you have to rev them pretty hard to translate much of their potential performance to the tarmac.它也很难不被感动愿意性质不同引擎售出尽管他们很累,你必须把许多很有潜力的表演停机坪.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR 寻找什么
Very little: the car tends to prove predictably reliable.很少:汽车倾向于证明料可靠. Your biggest problem will be sifting through the extraordinary number of engine and trim permutations to find the model that best suits your budget.你最大的问题将会非常多,搜罗引擎和示范浪排列找到最适合你的预算.

More to the point perhaps, it also returns up to 40mpg in normal use.或许更重要的一点是,它也回报达40mpg正常使用.
