The 1.6 liter, 160 hp Civic VTi engine (B16a2/3-EG6/1.6 L DOHC VTEC) is a double head camshaft. 16-valve, in line, 4-cylinder designs. Made of alumunium alloy, their lower mass helps reduce overall vehicle weight, which in turn helps overall performance. All 16 valves are operated by a double overhead camshaft (DOHC), instead of single overhead camshaft used in order 16 valves 4 cylinder engine. Engine efficiency and reliability benefit from the DOHC’s lower fraction and reduced mecanical complexity. Additionally, the efficient and compact engine design allows for more overall interior space. The outstanding efficiency and overall performance of the Civic engine make it classic example of the Honda approach to engine design. Smooth, powerful and technically sophisticated, it will cruise economically at high way speeds, yet its ample low and medrange torque makes it responsive and easy to drive around town.
