My 2022 Honda Civic was great for the first year Igor in my car the next summer of 2023 with 37000 in’s and turned on the ac to cool off To my surprise I was only getting hot air I called the nearest Honda dealer to book a appointment for inspection The dealer charged me $640 for the diagnostic and Freon I wasn’t happy The tech told me there was no Freon and they could not find a leak I brought back my car 2 weeks later to have the technician tell me that a rock hit the condenser and that’s why I have no ac 37000 Kim’s this is unacceptable Honda wants $1678 to fix the ac and I could drive down the road and get another stone hit the condenser I also forgot to mention the dealer refunded the $640 for the diagnostic Out of good will I don’t by that at all I live in Toronto Ontario with lots of construction going on all the time I think this is a bad design as rocks shouldn’t be damaging your ac condenser so to make a long story short I am fighting with Honda canada because they won’t cover the repair under warranty with 37000 Kim’s Also forgot to mention my wife and son also bought 2022 civics and have bought many hondas from honda dealer ships I don’t think this is a good way to treat your loyal customers shame on honda

Attractive outside. Ugly inside

Ride was nice but noisy. Seats were not very comfortable. No rear vents. Lots of shiny hard plastic inside. Center screen looks like an after thought and not very well integrated into the dash. Didn't feel like I was in a 30K car.

2022 Honda Civic Sport More cons than good

I've had my 2022 Civic Sport for 3 months. I've owned several model years of Civics. Th2 2022 Civic Sport is a DUD! Very little power in acceleration and not fun to drive as Honda advertises. They also removed many comfort items from the 2022 Civic Sport. You used to get a sun-roof. Not anymore. Instead you get 18" wheels. The car controls how you drive with little to no options to adjust controls such as Lane Assist and other items. You can't program the doors to lock automatically either. This is the slowest Civic I have owned. No turbo unless you go to the EX Model. Not great on fuel economy either. Thank God I'm only leasing this for 3 years. A positive note is that the car looks good inside and out, but that's about all the good I can speak of. Honda missed the mark on this generation of Civic Sport. Hate it!!!

Rethink buying this vehicle

Beautiful car.....very poor design. Can't lift the windshield wipers up to clear all the snow. The windshield washer dispenser on the blades is terrible. The side windows has a large gap and ice builds up and you are not able to roll your windows down. The water run off goes into the truck and freezes. If you open the truck you habe to chip all that ice away for it to close again. Mine has a bad squeek from the suspension, it been to the shop 3 times and they still haven't fixed it. This is my first honda of my own and my last. I was super pumped to own a Honda, they last forever. I have never been so disappointed in a vehicle. I have had it for 16m and I am getting rid of it.

Best car I have ever owned

I have only owned the car for a little less than a week but I love it. There are a ton of features to like but the best part is the driving experience. The closest I can compare it to is my dad's Mustang which drove like a dream. Great gas mileage and fun to drive is a wonderful combo!

Beautiful Hatchback

I love my new car. The safety features are very helpful. The only thing that can be annoying is at night country roads it can get confused with going off road even though it is on the road. Sometimes vechiles parked can confuse the auto cruise and slow down the car as if getting close to one. Along with people making turns that the vehicle slows down longer than needed for the person turn even though they are no longer in front of the vehicle. Other than those the vehicle safety is very useful. The Bluetooth connection and system is awesome and easy to use. The space for this car has being a smaller vehicle is very nice and useful compared to the civic sedan I had before this. The vehicle having automatic windshield can be helpful as well. I highly suggest this vehicle if you find interest in it.

Exquisite Civic EX

2022 Honda Civic EX 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

After buying the 2022 Honda Civic EX, I was pleasantly impressed with how much torque and horsepower the L1B7 1.5T had for such a small displacement engine. Coming from a 2017 Elantra with the 2.0 Atkinson engine, I believe the Honda engine is increasingly more responsive in city and highway driving. With the turbo engine, I can sit the engine in its 1,700-4,500 rpm torque range and fly off without the engine screaming or overworking like in the Elantra. I absolutely love the exterior styling which mimics the 10th generation accord. I also noticed that the front A pillars mimic the similar slope and curve of the 2001-2005 civic. My ear has taken a liking to how the 1.5T sounds when approaching 3,000 rpm. However, revving the Honda engine past 5,000 rpm doesn’t really add any more power, and sounds like the engine will tear itself apart if you floor it to redline. Since its a turbo engine, changing the oil which also cools the turbo will be of utmost importance to ensure longevity of the engine and the TD03 Mitsubishi turbo. When my friends are in the car, the engine has plenty of acceleration where as in the Elantra and my old 2001 Civic EX, the engine would scream but I didn’t feel any acceleration just an overworked engine. The moonroof is also an excellent feature that I had in my 2001 Civic. I’m blessed to have heated front seats and fell in love with the remote start feature so in the winter time, I just have to start the engine from inside the house and let the car defrost the windows and heat up the car. Sadly, the remote start only keeps the engine on for 10 minute increments. You have to restart the engine for another 10 minutes after it shuts off from the initial 10 minute remote start. I love the Agean blue color. Another feature I really liked were the LED front headlights. I don’t see well to begin with and especially at night it’s helpful to have bright LED’s to assist you in driving at night if you must. Some aspects I wish were different include not having Sirius XM Satellite radio as an option on the EX trim. I had XM radio standard on my 2017 Elantra SE with the popular equipment package. However, I don’t listen to XM radio anymore. I hardly ever use the radio unless I have my IPhone plugged into the CarPlay. Annoyingly, the car has a smaller gas tank than my 2017 Elantra. The Civic EX has a 12.4 gallon tank, while the 2017 Elantra had a 14 gallon tank. They both get similar gas mileage, although. I frequently have to fill up the 2022 Civic more often than my 2017 Elantra. I can go almost 2 weeks with my 2022 Civic, while my old 2017 Elantra I could go almost 3 weeks. But, it’s not much of a difference. I don’t drive long distances often, and mostly drive in the suburbs. Another structural feature I wasn’t happy to find out about the 2022 Civic was that Honda decided to use a rigid plastic engine mount for the rear engine mount which I hope will not be prone to cracking or failing suddenly. I also researched online and found out that one of the suspension brackets in the rear of the Civic is made partly with aluminum instead of all stamped steel. Maybe, the car engineers have been able to use higher strength aluminum for weight saving design and better mpgs. I just know that aluminum is not as malleable as steel and can be prone to fracture failures. Hopefully. The aluminum they used is as strong as the steel they used in the rest of the car. Overall, I love my 2022 Honda Civic EX, and I’m extremely satisfied with my decision to purchase this exquisite piece of machinery.

I love my new 2022 Honda Civic Sport in red!

I absolutely love my new 2022 Honda Civic Sport in rallye red! It is gorgeous! I love how eye catching this car is and how it stands out wherever I go. It is an amazing new design. It is very fun to drive. I love being able to change the driving modes to normal, sport, or eco. I also have been enjoying listening to my music via bluetooth. The seats are super comfortable. The red color, shiny black rims of the tires, and the entire interior is wonderful! I like the honeycomb detail on the inside near the vents. Highly recommend this car! This is actually my first new car I've ever had so it is very special to me!

What's New is Old.

Old time reliability in a newly designed Civic. So, the interior looks nice and the exterior as well. Can't help that the Sport model looks good but has the anemic base engine. Honda could have done so much more with it like placing the 1.5 turbo in all of the entire line. Then when all you want is the good looking sport model with automatic and 1.5 turbo, YOU CANNOT HAVE IT! So, you try to move up line the you have to either get the EX or Touring. Well, if they ever, EVER make the Civic Si with an automatic, I might switch back to Honda, For now, if I want anemic performance with great gas mileage, I will get the base Ford Maverick for less than $20,000 .

Spacious, but lacking options and quality

The car is very spacious- especially in the trunk area. The paddle shifters make for quick passing on the highway when necessary, but the CVT is best left to its own devices if driving back roads in sport mode. Very underpowered engine that, when combined with the CVT, sounds like an angry hornet nest while trying to get up to highway speeds. Leather trim is a nice touch on seats that sit way down into the vehicle to add a sportier feel, but the leather has started to wear out after only 15k miles. Lack of lumbar support can get old on long drives. Highway noise is definitely a factor, but the premium Bose sound system helps drown it out. The A/C developed a ticking/whirring noise at about 10k miles, and the dealership basically shrugged it off as my problem to deal with, so I will need to schedule a warranty service to address that. The back end looks way better with the update. The steering rack recall issue made the car nearly un-drivable, and the local dealership was awful to deal with when trying to get the recall work completed. Ended up trading the car after the dealership admitted they never put the paperwork through to fix the steering rack. Overall, it’s an okay daily driver that allows you to have a little bit of fun on your commute if your commute has a lot of back road driving. Just be mindful that the recall work has been completed.
