10 years running. And that you can fill up the tank right at home with
the Phill®2 refueling system. And since GX is a dedicated alternative-fuel vehicle, you could qualify for a federal tax credit, up to $4,000.3 An exhilarating characteristic every time you pass the pump. open to saving time.
Despite new restrictions on carpool-lane eligibility, alternative-fuel
vehicles like GX are still welcome in select markets.4 Even with only
the driver aboard. Proof that owning a GX opens up opportunities.
No matter what the traffic.
Civic GX shown in Green Tea Metallic. It’s an instant reaction, thanks to GX’s highly responsive 1.8-liter i-VTEC® engine. GX-specific technologies include special high-strength forged pistons that help raise the compression ratio to a race car-like 12.5:1. And special low-friction fuel injectors that deliver longer life and cleaner operation. Of course, GX is all Civic at heart, so it offers bold new styling, a spacious interior and sporty handling. Safety features such as six airbags* and Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure helped Civic earn a 5-star frontal crash-test rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration( NHTSA).† civicgx.com
*Honda reminds you and your passengers to always buckle up. Childen 12 and under are safest when properly restrained in the rear seat. †Government star ratings are part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s (NHTSA’s) New Car Assessment Program (www.safercar.gov).
