Honda gave the 11th -generation Civic Hatchback a refresh late last year .

The Civic uses a hybrid powertrain with two electric motors working with the 2.0 L, four -cylinder engine.

It's both more powerful and torquier than the 1.5 L turbo previously found in the top trim Civics.

With most of the propulsive power coming from the electric traction motor, the Civic hybrid feels very smooth.
