Fun, fast, and fuel efficient

2019 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
33 of 37 people found this review helpful

I am a long-time Honda fan and owner, having owned a total of 5 Hondas, including a 1999 Civic Si as well as an S2000 back in the day. Honda is back and better than ever with the 10th generation Civic Si. You can really tell Honda went back to the drawing board with this car. The attention to detail is unmatched. I REALLY love the styling of the sedan and I'm very glad they decided to use the sedan as the base for the Si and NOT the hatchback. Don't get me wrong, I like the hatch, but I definitely prefer the sedan. This car has a lot of power, but it's not overpowered, and the stock wheels and tires keep up well. The engine is quiet, but it has a nice exhaust note that turns heads. Now for the "negatives"... This isn't really a Honda thing, but I don't see the point of Android Auto / Apple Car Play when you have to plug in your phone. It would be nice if it utilized WiFi or something instead. There are a few rattles when the car is on Sport mode on a bumpy road. I really wish Brake Hold stayed on between drives by default. Heck, I wish Sport / Normal Mode stayed set between drives as well. All that said, this car is awesome. No car is 100% perfect, but this car is as close to perfect as you can get. Honda, you did well!

Awesome Vehicle

2019 Honda Civic Sport Touring 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT)
26 of 29 people found this review helpful

Purchased the Hatchback Sport Touring model. Love the vehicle. Wish it had USB ports for rear passengers. Car does ride low so getting in and out could be difficult for some. Currently getting a combined gas mileage of 34 mpg. Love that! 3 driving modes to pick from: Eco, Standard, and Sport. Would definitely purchase the vehicle again. 👍🏻👍🏻

2019 Honda Civic Type R 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
19 of 21 people found this review helpful

A little background: I'm coming from 3 years in a Gen IV Prius and have had a 1989 Honda Civic SI, a 2002 Civic SI, and a 2009 Fit Sport. I missed having a manual transmission and that lightweight Civic SI go-kart feeling. With the Type-R I can still get 5-door practicality along with 305 hp and 295 ft-lb torque! Driving 9.5 Not the fasted car off the line, but once you get into that turbo, this baby moves out. Really makes empty on-ramps a blast. Outstanding 3-way adjustable suspension, steering and brakes. Can drive normally around town, but lots of untapped potential available. Thinking about autocross or a high performance day at a track. Comfort 9.0 Amazing seats! AC rocks. Nice features like touch to unlock doors, keyless ignition. The ride in comfort mode is easy-going. Road noise is not distracting. Not a luxury car--this is an economy car with an awesome engine and suspension! Interior 8.0 Lots of space, 5 doors. Materials are not the best, but again, this is an economy car with an awesome engine and suspension! Utility 9.5 5 doors, fold-down seats, lots of room. Technology Infotainment system is fine. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. Stereo rocks, but not why I bought the car. Interesting display options for the center instrument panel, but most are just distractions.

The perfect everyday ride

2019 Honda Civic EX 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

I have owned a mix of Accords and Civics over the past 20 years as my daily drivers (my wife has had Toyota, Mazda and Subaru, so I know those as well) and I think that this is the best all around car I have owned. It is vastly superior to my 2011 Civic in all ways except the entertainment system (still a bit confusing and no CD) and rear visibility. The hatchback configuration allows this to operate like a mini SUV (without the off road), but the handling and acceleration is top notch. The small size makes it a great car to commute into the city, but it is also fun for weekend trips to the mountains. Great mileage, looks good in black (to hide those ugly fake "air grills") and very reasonably prices. Honda cars are very reliable, so this one really falls into the sweet spot of price, performance, utility and reliability. Please not my ratings are relative to the car category/price. I know a BMW would have far better acceleration, handling, etc.
