Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The eighth
generation of the Honda Civic was introduced in 2005. Trademarks of this
generation include its futuristic sleek body, and its "two-tier"
instrument panel. In many countries (USA, UK, New Zealand), all models
(including the base model) come standard with power windows, anti-lock
brakes (ABS), and side/curtain airbags (for a total of six airbags).
Additionally, the 2006 models acquired ULEV-2 (Ultra Low Emission
Vehicle) certification and boast a more powerful 1.8 litre engine than
the 2005 counterparts while retaining almost equal fuel economy.
