¹ Total system horsepower (ISO net) as measured by the peak, concurrent output of the two electric motors and gasoline engine.
² Based on 2026 EPA mileage ratings for Civic and 2025 ratings for Sentra. Use for comparison purposes only. Your mileage will vary depending on how you drive and maintain your vehicle, driving conditions and other factors.
³ ACC cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and other factors. ACC should not be used in heavy traffic, poor weather or on winding roads. ACC only includes a limited braking function. Driver remains responsible for slowing or stopping the vehicle to avoid a collision.
⁴ Rear seat reminder functions when a rear door has been opened prior to driving and will alert the driver to check for the presence of rear seat occupants when the vehicle is turned off. If the vehicle is turned off partway through a drive and the vehicle restarted without a rear door being opened, no alert will be provided the next time the vehicle is turned off.
