2021 Honda Civic Performance and Eco Assist System 

The 2021 Honda Civic fuel economy you’ll enjoy on Omaha roads is taken to the next level with its two engine options offered to sedan customers. First, on the Civic Sedan LX and Sport configurations, you’ll have a standard 2.0L 4-cylinder engine which delivers 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. If you opt for trim levels such as the Civic Sedan EX, EX-L, or Touring, you’ll have an extra boost thanks to the available 1.5L turbo 4-cylinder engine upgrade which generates up to 174 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. You can continue to make the most of your Honda Civic mpg ratings with the model’s Eco Assist System, which enables you to save even more on fuel in the following ways: 

  • First, the system tells you how fuel-efficient your driving habits are via a color-changing display around the speedometer. If the display is green, your driving habits are efficient; if it’s blue, you’re probably wasting fuel.
  • Second, the Eco Assist System can be had with an available ECON button, which you can push to change the Civic’s performance profile to favor fuel conservation.
