The Honda Civic--already the acknowledged benchmark among small cars--took another self-improvement course for 1996. Thanks to a thorough and thoughtful redesign, the Civic is now bigger and quieter, has a better ride, a more handsome interior, and an innovative array of technology. Despite these changes, prices are virtually the same as in 1995. It's no wonder the Civic was the best-selling small car in America in last year, outselling Saturn and the Ford Escort.
