2008 Honda Civic Si Sedan

Overview The 2008 Civic Si Sedan showcases the performance potential of the Civic platform and is designed to carve through twisty roads like a sports car, sprint from 0-60 quickly and still provide the everyday practicality of a Civic with its legendary quality, refinement, and durability. Power and Performance The Civic Si Sedan’s 2.0-liter, 16-valve, DOHC engine produces 197-horsepower at 7800 rpm and 139 lb-ft. of torque at 6100 rpm. A vehicle stability assist (VSA) system with traction control is standard. The Civic Si Sedan has a unique intake and exhaust tuning that emphasizes the torque of the K20Z3 engine at low rpm. Body and Styling The Civic Si sport suspension adds firm spring, damper, and stabilizer bar tuning along with exclusive 17-inch alloy wheels and high-performance tires. Exclusive exterior features include a low-profile rear wing spoiler and Si emblems. The fully-featured Civic Si Sedan interior has a two-tier instrument panel that conveys futuristic design and a quick reference meter positioning, including a rev-limit indicator light and outside temperature gauge. The sports-oriented interior adds specially-bolstered synthetic suede seats with red fabric stitching and unique trim panels. Safety Features The Civic Si Sedan’s safety system includes Honda’s exclusive Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure for enhanced frontal crash compatibility. The ACE body structure enhances frontal collision energy management through a network of load bearing structures in the front of the vehicle. In addition, the Civic provides a long list of standard safety equipment including side curtain airbags, front side airbags with passenger-side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS), and active front head restraints. To help reduce pedestrian injuries in the event of a collision, the Civic model’s hood and fender areas are designed to deform if it comes in contact with a pedestrian.
