Hybrid
The stylish 2008 Civic Hybrid is for those with the foresight to improve the future, and the spirit to enjoy the moment. The Civic Hybrid features a lightweight, low-friction 4-cylinder engine with torque-enhancing i-VTEC.® The engine is complemented by a powerful DC electric motor that's less than 2.5" wide. Power for the motor is stored in a compact battery pack behind the rear seat. And the Civic Hybrid Integrated Motor Assist IMA® battery pack comes with an 8-year/80,000-mile limited battery warranty for even more peace of mind.

','Dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags deploy at one of two rates and thresholds, depending on the severity of impact and seat-belt use.','<a href=/civic-hybrid/features.aspx?feature=dualstagefrontairbags>View Demo</a>','');){kind=small}
','In the event of a moderate-to-severe side impact, the side airbag inflates to help protect the driver\'s or front passenger\'s upper body. Plus the Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS) utilizes sensors in the front passenger\'s seatback to detect the height and seating position of the occupant. If a child or small-statured adult is leaning into the deployment path of the side airbag, sensors deactivate it.','<a href=/civic-hybrid/features.aspx?feature=opds>View Demo</a>','');){kind=small}

 with Electronic Brake Distribution (EBD)','The anti-lock braking system (ABS) uses a special modulator to pulse the brakes to help prevent wheel lockup. This helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard. The Electronic Brake Distribution system (EBD) balances the braking forces at each wheel according to how the car is dynamically loaded.','','');){kind=small}
