Do Honda Civics have car seat anchors?
Yes, Honda Civics have car seat anchors. All Civic models are equipped with a child seat-mounting system called LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) in the outboard rear seating positions . The LATCH system makes car seat installation easier and safer by providing lower anchors and top tether anchors to secure the car seat. The location of the anchors may vary depending on the model year and body style of the Civic. For example, in the 2020 Honda Civic sedan, the LATCH anchors are accessible and two car seats can fit with ease. In the 2022 Honda Civic, the sedans accessible LATCH anchors also make installation a breeze, but booster seat accommodations may be more troublesome. It’s important to consult the specific car seat manual and the vehicle’s owner’s manual for proper installation instructions.
