The 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback has finally arrived at Cambridge Centre Honda. The Civic is the best-selling car in Canada for a reason, and this all-new hatchback edition is here to give prospective buyers even more reason to want to drive one home. A revamped exterior, versatile interior, engine and transmission enhancements as well as new tech and safety make the 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback a worthy progression in this iconic vehicle. Read on with us at Cambridge Centre Honda as we outline some of the major upgrades the Civic Hatchback has seen for its 2022 model year.
Taking cues from European-styled sportbacks, it’s easy to mistake the hatchback for a sporty coupe at first glance. It’s got all 5 doors, but with an aerodynamic build that highlights its sport coupe-like appeal. The Civic Hatchback easily sets itself apart from its sedan sister thanks to a honeycomb grille, easily identifiable when you first set eyes on it from the front. There’s even new paint colours like Boost Blue Pearl and Smoky Mauve Pearl to further set yourself apart.
The Civic Hatchback’s interior has been redesigned with a new two-fold focus: to both simplify it and also to create more versatility. This new design was all made in accordance with those young, active drivers who need their vehicle to adapt to their many needs in modern life. Thus produced is a straight-forward interior that’s still high on the sport style, but one that is equally suitable for gear, passengers or both. This all adds up to the 2022 Civic Hatchback having the largest backseat in its model year history, ready to graciously welcome all those onboard.
Previously for 2021 there were only two trims available with the same 1.5-litre, 16-valve, Direct Injection, DOHC, turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, but 2022 sees the addition of a new base trim and engine. The new LX trim comes standard with the 2.0-litre, 16-valve, Port Injection, DOHC, i-VTEC 4-cylinder engine, getting up to 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. A short-throw 6-speed manual transmission is available on any of the 3 trims, further representing the Civic Hatchback’s propensity for slick sport performance.
Honda and safety are synonymous, and the Civic being one the landmark models of the brand means only the latest and greatest safety tech will be found inside to aid your drive. Next-generation driver and front passenger airbags, alongside the Honda Sensing system (adding Traffic Jam Assist) highlight the Civic’s modern blend of safety and tech. Adaptive Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist have been updated to provide smoother functionality. Even small touches like a rear seat reminder and rear seatbelt reminder have been added, and standardized across the line.
All these many changes add up to an all-new 2022 Civic Hatchback that is both familiar yet completely revitalized for those seeking a youthful, fun and sporty vehicle.
