While sales of the Honda Civic Hybrid Sedan hasn’t taken off like the Toyota Prius, oddly enough the 2009 Civic Hybrid provides similar gas mileage for a lower price!
In general, reviews are saying that in comparison to the Prius, the Civic Hybrid (with it’s 90-hp, 1.3 litre engine and 20-hp electric engine) isn’t as ‘slick’ but it is good enough to drive – that isn’t meant to ‘damn with faint praise’, rather, put things into context; there is nothing wrong, it just isn’t ‘standout’ good.
Some highlights: Incredible interior room, good steering, breaks and handling
New in 2009: front bumper and grille styling, head and tailight assemblies, USB interface, Bluetooth, GPS, stability control.

I like the idea of hybrid cars, but as my personal opinion I think we should try and find a way to continue the combustible engine without draining resources. Scientists are on to some things.
