Reader’s Question:

I just got my first bonus paycheck and I am looking forward to buy myself the 2007 Honda Civic Hybrid here in Houston Texas. What can you say about its engine and transmission?

The 2007 Honda civic Hybrid will only cost you about $22,000 excluding any of the special add-on features. If you’re going to buy a hybrid with features such as the Satellite-Linked Navigation System and fog lights and stuff like that, you’re looking at a $30,000 vehicle. Let’s set aside the price, let me take you into this vehicle and show you what it’s all about.

The first feature on our list is Multipoint fuel injection. Multipoint fuel injection is the system that injects the fuel into each cylinder against the carburetor or throttle body injections which injects fuel at one point in the intake system.

It also has the , Drive-by-Wire Throttle System which enhance engine efficiency while slowing vehicle emissions. The way this is done is it replaces the old throttle control system with an electronic system that is more accurate, needs no oil or service, and does not get affected by outside forces such as hot or cold weather.Enough to withstand the weather of Houston Texas though.

Next spot is the front-wheel drive. This feature literally means the front, rather than that rear wheels move the car. These has definitely got has to do with control and handling.

One more feature of the engine is the Direct Ignition System with Immobilizer . In theory, the advantage of this system rather than traditional ignition systems is that parts don’t wear out and would not cause you problems in the future when you try to start your car.

Another on the list we have is the unit-body construction. This is a system is fuel efficient because it tries to lower the car’s body weight.

This vehicle also comes with, the Mac Pherson strut front suspension which is not better than double wishbone suspension but it’s still better than most. One problem with this is that the wheel actually bends in which effects the sharpness of the turn. Well, at least you get to save a few dollars here because of this feature.

Finally, this car comes with a spare tire like many other cars do just to add that extra feature on the list.
