2005 Honda Civic LX with Side Airbags

The 2005 Honda Civic LX with Side Airbags combines an average trim for the model year with some of the best safety technology offered in the 2005 Civic.

The 2005 Civic LX is driven by a 1.7-liter, SOHC 4-cylinder engine. This block is estimated to get 32 miles per gallon in city driving and 38 and on the highway with a manual transmission.

For comfort and convenience, the 2005 Civic LX comes with air conditioning (optional on the base model DX) and remote entry, as well as an AM/FM audio system with 4 speakers and a dash clock. The LX Special Edition package adds a leather wrapped steering wheel and some extra audio: a CD player, two extra speakers and MP3 play capability.

Buyers of the 2005 Civic LX get the dual stage front airbags and LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) that are standard safety features for the 2005 Civic. Anti-lock brakes are only available on the EX trim. Electronic Brake-Force Distribution and the tire pressure monitoring system featured on later model years are not on the 2005 Civic. However, adding the optional airbag gives drivers and passengers more peace of mind when they're on the road in this model.

Honda buyers who choose Front Side Airbags get Honda's proprietary Passenger-Side Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS). This technology helps the airbag system to detect irregularities in positioning, and stops airbag deployment in situations where it can lead to injury. For drivers who may have younger passengers in the front seat, or anyone concerned with airbag safety, this safety feature can be a valuable addition to the Civic.
