Budget Sports car

2020 Honda Civic Sport 2dr Coupe (2.0L 4cyl CVT)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful

The 2020 Honda Civic Sport Coupe is the best 2 door beginner car for any new driver. This was my 2nd ever car snd first brand new car. It handles as good as any affordable sports car and has decent fun and reliability. These cars have a 158hp engine which seems slow but once your up to speed it rips! Only downside is the CVT transmission makes it feel like a lawn mower on a Sunday morning trying to get up to 50 miles an hour but around back roads it's a hoot! 25-30 MPG and the best reliability honda is known for this car will never let you down!

Sporty, quick little monster.

I've owned my 2020 civic since 2021, purchased brand new. I love this car. It's roomy in the hatchback variant and the trunk has lots of space as I have two toddlers. The car is fairly quick when you know how to control the throttle with the CVT. This is my first CVT car and before purchasing, I was nervous as I heard lots of negative feedback about CVT transmissions in general but after 90,000km, the CVT still pulls and works flawlessly. I change the fluid in the CVT every 40,000km and the engine every 4,000km as I've heard oil dilution still may be present on the 1.5T in the 2020 models. Since purchasing the civic, I've lowered it, added some aftermarket wheels, installed a cold air intake and a strut tower brace. This car is an absolute monster. Handles the corners like it's on rails and accelerates fairly decent. This car definitely surprises alot of people in traffic with the way it accelerates. My only two gripes with this car is the infotainment sucks and the engine splash guard design is ridiculously bad. Very slow infotainment to respond to gestures/commands and looks outdated. Splash guard for the engine is held on by clips and seems to either fly off/come off on its own or gets bent because it's made out of the thinnest aluminum on planet earth. Other than that, the car is amazing.

Nice Ride

2020 Honda Civic LX 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl CVT)

I am enjoying driving my new honda civic. The ride is smoother than the Toyota corolla I have owned for over a decade. The backup camera, Bluetooth, and lane assist are great upgrades from my old corolla. I am disappointed that the care does not have a push-button start, rare cupholder, and seat pockets. Overall I think the Honda Civic LX is a great car!
