 | | Early models of the Civic were typically outfitted with a basic AM radio, rudimentary heater, foam cushioned plastic trim, two speed wipers, and painted steel rims with a chromed wheel nut cap. |
 | | The Honda Domani, another series based on the Civic, was sold as the Isuzu Gemini in Japan (1992—2000), and confusingly the 5-door hatch Domani was sold as the Honda Civic (along with the "real" EK Civics) in Europe from around 1995-2000. |
 | | Current generation Civics use variable valve timing (VTEC), and are approaching the size and weight of the early Honda Accord models, which were initially introduced as a larger, up-market alternative to the Civic in the mid 1970s. |
