From The Experts

Things we like

New-age design inside-out

Engaging performance

Read More

 

Striking Design – The Honda Civic’s sleek coupe-like styling and luxury sedan elements make it a real head-turner.

Modern & Feature-Rich Interior – While not as futuristic as its eighth-gen predecessor, the tenth-gen Civic offers a well-equipped and comfortable cabin.

VTEC Power & Performance – Retaining the 1.8L engine, the Civic also gets an optional 1.5L turbocharged petrol unit, delivering power akin to a 2.4L engine.

Things we don't like

Lifeless steering at higher speeds

Expensive to buy

Read More

Cramped Rear Cabin – Despite a spacious feel, rear legroom is decent at best, and headroom is limited due to the sloping roofline.

CVT Dulls the Drive – The 1.8L engine delivers good power, but the CVT’s rubber-band effect reduces driving excitement.

Paddle Shifters Help – While not a complete fix, paddle shifters add some engagement to the driving experience.
