Utilized to getting top ratings -- and sales-- for the Civic, Honda responded rapidly when reviewers, especially Consumer Reports, criticized the 2012 Civic for its less enticing interior and poorer handling than the previous variation. The Civic on display today has a sleeker interior and exterior look and supposedly some suspension tuning and other modifications to resolve the handling. Honda was not saying much about any other mechanical modifications prior to today's statement. The make over gets a loan some functions from the redesigned 2013 Accord midsize sedan, including a lesser "open mouth" front bumper and even more slender, tapered headlights. The redesigned Civic also goes on sale at dealers today. 15 Photos Classic %%PRO10%% at the L.A.

  • Aggregate Sentiment is meant to be an indicator of an individual's overall sentiment.
  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
