I have been driving a Civic AT since Jan 2010 - and have done Bangalore - Goa, Bangalore - Chennai & Bangalore - Pune(860kms). This car has an amazing handling and very high on driver comfort. My wife sometimes complaint that the comfort at the back was not as great - but I quite disagree. The car also has great mileage(if you drive decently). I am getting about 13+ overall - with allost 100% aircon on mode - with 40% highway and 60% city driving.
It’s so amazing to drive this AT model in high traffics - no pressure on legs - and unlike what most would feel - its size is not really any issue. The car has very peppy response for an automatic.
I would certainly recommend this car. Once a Honda owner - always one. I was driving City before this.
