The LX is considered the base model, but it still has many advanced features and amenities. Some say that the Civic LX has a roomy cabin with high-quality materials, excellent fuel economy, and a ride quality that balances comfort and athleticism. However, others say that the touchscreen interface is slow to respond and the forward collision warning system is overly vigilant.
