The Honda Sensing package of safety gear available on other Civics (lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, and automated emergency braking) will be optional on most grades of the hatchback and standard on the Sport Touring. A touchscreen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto also will be part of the mix, but frustratingly, only the EX models and up will get it—meaning buyers of the Sport trim can’t cue up navigation via their smartphones or take advantage of the enhanced phone integration either software affords. We’ve fiddled with the base infotainment setup in a 2.0-liter Civic coupe and found it works well—it has, for example, actual knobs for volume and tuning, rather than touch-sensitive sliders as on the touchscreen—but it’d be nice if all versions could be had with the touchscreen and its attendant Apple and Google phone-integration features.
