Today we share and establish the most favoured 2003 Honda Civic Aftermarket Wheels

Three decades goes by since Honda introduced the Civic nameplate to the world starting with Japan. It was introduced as a small hatchback (dare we say cute even?) bringing it to the 2000s with various iterations.

Admired for its practical approach, understated (yet handsome) exterior, reliability, modification opportunity and frugal nature, the Honda Civic has made a household name for itself. For 2003, the car is still available in hatchback, coupe and sedan forms. An interesting fact to be known is in its earlier years, even a station wagon version of the Civic was available!

The biggest update for 2003 with the Civic name badge is the introduction of a very frugal Honda Civic Hybrid. Using what Honda refers to as the IMA (Integrated Motor Assist), this new model adds a number of new technical features to enhance its overall fuel efficiency. This means the car doesn’t need to be plugged in anywhere and the batteries charge while the petrol engine is running. Additionally, while decelerating, the engine uses a twin spark system to help burn the air-fuel mixture leaner, can deactivate 3 out of its 4 cylinders, auto stop and re-start when idle and is dressed in revised body panels and newer tyres to help reduce drag and improve its aerodynamics.

Given all of these new technological advancements, it is clear to see that Honda was setting a benchmark for the industry and it was complimented for the same. Awards came to the tune of being awarded the “International Engine of the Year” award, “Best Fuel Economy” award and rated among the top 10 greenest vehicles for its time.
