For the 1974 model year the Civic's engine grew slightly to 1237 cc and power rose to 52 hp. To meet the new North American 5 mile per hour bumper impact standard the bumpers grew by 7.1 inches, lengthening the car to 146.9 inches. A five-speed manual transmission became available this year, as did a Civic station wagon, offered only with the 1500 CVCC engine. Sales topped 100,000 units in this year. In October 1974 Honda added the first sport model, the 1200 RS, which was sold only in the Japanese domestic market.
