The Honda Civic Tourer is the perfect all-rounder for those who are used to traveling with lots of suitcases in tow and don't want to give up their dignity. However, the high price of the luxury version of the Lifestyle Navi ADAS (28.600 euros) may turn off many potential buyers.
La Honda Civic Tourer is one of station wagon compact the most versatile: it has trunk huge, very comfortable and gives especially live performances.
In our road test we have to analyze strengths и defects from the more expensive version: 1.6 i-DTEC Lifestyle Ships ADAS... The car in our test is still Euro 5 but for a few days now, options that comply with environmental protection regulations are already available at the dealership - at the same price Euro 6... Let's find out how a member of a Japanese family is doing.
city
La city this is not an ideal habitat Honda Civic Tourer: For example, in car parks you have to deal with a lack of body protection and numerous bulges that make it difficult to perceive the overall dimensions. Fortunately, front and rear sensors come standard.
Le adaptive rear suspension – also included – they guarantee effective absorption of cobblestones (if you choose the driving mode Comfort) AND engine Turbo diesel 1.6 i-DTEC 120 hp and 300 Nm of torque will get along very well in a sprint from a standstill (10,5 seconds to accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour), although I must say that traction starts powerful only after 2.000 rpm.
Outside the city
Le performance announced Honda Civic Tourer 1.6 i-DTEC are very interesting - a top speed of 195 km / h and 10,5 seconds for acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h - but the most interesting thing is different: in corners it is more confident than agile, the engine could be more elastic, and steering, not very sensitive, gives the best when it is not "hacked".
Il Speed the six-speed manual transmission, featuring a comfortable lever, is instead one of the best in its segment and is matched with a pedal from Clutch shine.
шосе
La Honda Civic Tourer is station wagon ideal for those who travel many kilometers on motorways: very quiet engine, good stability at high speeds, perfect soundproofing of the cab and suspensions soft (in mode Comfort), which filter any unevenness in the road surface very well.
On the other hand, I brakes (the implant may be more powerful) andautonomy: It is impossible to drive the 1.280 km declared by the manufacturer, and only when driving in an unnatural way (i.e., at a speed below 2.000 rpm) can you drive more than 1.000 km.
Life on board
To fall in love with Honda Civic Tourer just open trunk: the coupe is the largest in its category (624 liters, which becomes 1.668 in a two-seater configuration), there is also the possibility of raising session rear seats (as on Jazz и CR-V) to accommodate bulky items in the area normally reserved for passengers.
It is a pity that the cabin is not so spacious: those who sit in the back actually have access to a few centimeters in the area of the shoulders and legs. Chapter finish: body panel assemblies in poor condition when in dashboard Mastery levels achieved (even if the choice of some materials might make you throw your nose up).
Price and costs
It makes no sense to bypass this too much: Honda Civic Tourer 1.6 i-DTEC Lifestyle Navi ADAS It is expensive (28.600 euro) BUT standard equipment it is rich but not very customizable. Alloy wheels from 17", dual-zone automatic climate control, Cruise control, fog lights, satellite navigator, aluminum pedals, digital radio, electrically folding mirrors, front parking sensors e rear с Rear View Camera e adaptive rear suspension... Pretty long Warranty, three years or 100.000 km.
Lack of success can negatively affect preservation of value as for me consumption (25,6 km/l claimed, over 20 just riding with a bit of gas). It should be taken into account that less enthusiasm at low speeds compared to competitors forces you to run more often than necessary, above 2.000 rpm (as a result, increasing "thirst" station wagon Japanese).
safety
La safety equipment of Honda Civic Tourer 1.6 i-DTEC Lifestyle Navi ADAS very rich: high beam assault rifle, air bag front, side and curtain, hill start assistant, Isofix attacks, emergency braking, light sensor, Rain sensor and a tire pressure sensor. However, the real gem is the packaging. ADAS: BSI (information about blind spots), STM (traffic signal when maneuvering), FCW (frontal collision alarm), LDW (lane departure warning) e TSR (road sign recognition).
A set of useful gadgets combined with other elements that are not quite convincing, such as a weak harsh braking system and visibility penalized with not very large glass surfaces. In corners taken at high speed, the Japanese family is always stable and safe.
