A lower hoodline, increased glass area and lower wind drag were functional advantages of the sleeker body styles. A family of new engines complemented the stylish honda Civic's. Power for the honda civic DX hatchback/sedan, new LX sedan and the wagon came from a 1.5-liter 16-valve engine that produced 92 Hp. The base honda civic hatchback had a less powerful 70-hp version of that engine. The fuel-economy champ honda civic CRX HF had an eight-valve 62-Hp version of the 1.5 that could go up to 56 miles on a gallon of gas. The standard honda civic CRX had the 92-Hp engine. A high-performance 1.6-liter 16-valve engine that kicked out 105 Hp was installed in the honda civic CRX, honda civic Si and honda Civic 4WD wagon. All this honda Civic's engines were now fuel injected, automatic transmission with transmission fluid. Previously, only the "Si" models had the injection.
A new double-wishbone suspension system was used at all four wheels. That inspired by Formula One race cars, this design promoted to agile handling and a more comfortable ride by precisely controlling wheel travel and keeping the tire's contact patch square to the road surface.
One model departed (the honda Civic Si hatchback), as a new one, the honda Civic LX sedan, was introduced. The LX loaded up a honda Civic sedan with features such as power windows, power locks and electric mirrors; a tachometer; exhaust pipe and intermittent wipers.

The Honda Civic LX loaded up the Honda Civic sedan with features such as power windows, locks and mirrors; a tachometer; and intermittent wipers. U.S. production car for the Honda Civic began this year in Ohio, making it easier for Honda to satisfy America's appetite for its gem of a small car.
The Honda Civic Si hatchback returned for 1989, now with a power moonroof and once again with the same potent engine (increased to 108 horsepower for this year) installed in the Honda Civic CRX Si and the Honda Civic 4WD wagon.
Revised bumpers and taillights identified the 1990 Honda Civic. Honda Civic Hatchbacks received larger reverse (white) lights, and sedans adopted a horizontal taillight theme. An Honda Civic EX sedan joined the Honda Civic car family and took its place at the top of the sedan lineup. The Honda Civic EX had the Honda Civic Si's engine, 14-inch wheels and all the features of the Honda civic LX (which now included cruise control). Four-wheel disc brakes appeared on the Honda Civic CRX as did a slightly revised dash-board (with softer corners and larger instruments) for all Honda Civic models.
The 1991 Honda Civics were virtually unchanged, and this was the last year for the spunky Honda Civic CRX.
