Do Honda Civics have ABS?

Yes, many Honda Civic models come equipped with anti-lock braking systems (ABS). ABS is a standard safety feature on most Honda Civics produced in recent years.


What is ABS and How Does it Work?


ABS, or anti-lock braking system, is an advanced braking technology that helps prevent the wheels from locking up during heavy braking. This allows the driver to maintain steering control and avoid skidding, which can help prevent accidents. ABS works by rapidly pulsing the brakes to keep the wheels rolling, rather than allowing them to lock up.


ABS on Honda Civics


Honda has included ABS as a standard feature on many Civic models in recent years. Specifically:



  • ABS has been standard on all Honda Civic models in the United States since 2007.

  • In Canada, ABS became standard on all Civic trims in 2012.

  • Some earlier Civic models may have had ABS available as an optional feature.


So in summary, the majority of Honda Civics produced in the last 15+ years have come equipped with anti-lock brakes as a standard safety feature.
