The 2012 Honda Civic has been a customer favorite at SanTan Honda ever since it hit our Chandler, Arizona Honda dealership in May. In addition to its improved fuel economy and TOP SAFETY PICK rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, the newly-designed 2012 Civic has just been named one of the Top 10 “Coolest Cars Under $18,000” by Kelly Blue Book site kbb.com.

The editors at kbb.com summed it up nicely when they said:

Cool doesn’t always have to be in your face. Take the 2012 Honda Civic, for example. Its attributes read like a thought-out online dating profile: Good looking but not flashy, low maintenance and easygoing…but happy to be your partner in crime for any adventure (insert winky face here). And like any good relationship, admiration for the Civic grows the more time you spend with it. Cool, indeed.

So what makes the 2012 Civic so cool?

For starters, all the 2012 Civic models received a nearly 8-percent upgrade in fuel economy over the 2010 models. The Civic Hybrid features a whopping 44 mpg – the best city, highway and combined EPA-estimated fuel economy rating for any sedan currently on the market.

In addition to new futuristic and sleeker styling, the 2012 Civic models also feature a host of new, interactive technologies for personalization and convenience, and enhancements to performance, ride and interior packaging.

Check out the newly redesigned 2012 Civic — kbb.com’s “Coolest Car Under $18,000” — at SanTan Honda, your go-to Honda dealership in Chandler, Arizona serving the Mesa, Scottsdale and Phoenix area.
