Honda Civic VTi-L 2017 review: snapshot

EXPERT RATING
7.5
The VTi-L ($27,790) is not just the mid-point in the five-strong Civic family, but also the first to make use of the pick of the engines, a perky petrol unit helped along by clever turbocharging.

The VTi-L ($27,790) is not just the mid-point in the five-strong Civic family, but also the first to make use of the pick of the engines, a perky petrol unit helped along by clever turbocharging.

Ditching the soggier-feeling 1.8-litre engine from the cheaper models, the VTi-L makes use of much better turbocharged engine that will send 127kW at 5500rpm and 220Nm at 1700rpm to the front wheels, via a CVT automatic transmission.

Along with the engine, springing for the VTi-L will also earn you 17-inch alloy wheels, twin-zone climate control and automatic windows in both rows, but safety mirrors the model below it, so expect parking sensors front and rear, a reversing camera, six airbags and Honda's cool LaneWatch.
