Confusing engine selection choices

I noticed that it can be confusing when selecting a engine type for your car. For example look at the 2012 Honda Civic, the choices for engine type are CNG, GAS, GAS L4, GAS H4. I think H4 stands for the hybrid, then why not just call it Hybrid. What about L4, does that actually mean "Inline 4"? If there is no v6 why would that matter, just call it gasoline or petrol or I4.

People with the LX, EX, and HF models are split between GAS, and L4. There is an HF owner who listed his car as a H4.

I think the best way to avoid this is to list cars that have different drive-trains by themselves just like the Civic Si models are. The Civic HF, and the Civic Hybrid should have their own separate group for better comparison and to avoid corrupting data and confusion.
