It's a great car that handles well and has ample power. I love the smoothness and acceleration I get from the 1.5T engine and CVT transmission. Gas mileage is incredible. I usually get an average mpg in the mid 40's on the highway and on road trips. Lots of nice features and tech such as a sunroof, dual climate, remote start, heated seats, heated side mirrors, apple carplay, and blind spot monitoring. I find the seats to be comfortable. They aren't as bad as people make them out to be. My only complaints are the auto start/stop feature, which can't be permanently disabled, and the lack of power seats.

2023 Honda Civic Touring 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo CVT)

Since I have occasional lower lumbar back issues, I was hesitant as there is no lumbar option on the 2023 Honda Civic Touring. So far, the gray leather seats are perfect and I am not experiencing any back issues. Before test driving this car, I thought the 1.5 Turbo engine & CVT transmission would not be sufficient but they pleasantly surprised me when entering the interstate highway. I am very happy with the good city and exceptional highway mileage. Body panel fit & Meteorite Gray finish, gray leather seating / interior is nice. I would have given Honda a 5 stars but the following two points are worth mentioning. (1) The carpeting is very thin and Honda could have used more sound deadening insulation to quiet the interior on rough roads. (2) I was disappointed to learn a heated steering wheel is not included with the heated seats.

I bought the 2023 Honda Civic Touring new after driving this and 2023 Accord Sport hybrid, the dynamics were similar but the new Accord Styling is definitely a miss, so I got this one. Not sure how the 1.5 turbo is going to hold over time but it is definitely satisfying to drive for the small displacement it is and my last car was a 2007 Honda Accord EXL V6. The downside is road noise at highway speeds and trashy Goodyear Eagle stock tires but aside from this, the handling, dynamics and fuel economy just a tad more than 40mpg when not exceeding 75mph is great.

2023 Civic Sport sedan (2.0) K20C2 / CVT

2023 Honda Civic Sport pro's 1.) The engine (K20C2) it is the most reliable 4 cyl on the market right now! 2.) Gets above average gas mileage 34.5mpg in the city & 37mpg on the highway! 3.) ease of DIY maintenance and cheap replacement parts compared to the 1.5T! 4.) The CVT transmission is more than adequate to respond to your throttle inputs, also just remember to change the transmission fluid with HCF-2 cvt fluid every 25k miles. 5.) Lastly, the chasis handles like a Accord with its smooth flat steering response with the 18's that come stock on the sport trim. Con's 1.) No manual E-brake. 2.) Prone to rock chips on the paint and windshield. 3.) Have to enable auto start stop to (off) every start up. 4.) Highway passing power isn't the most robust leaving some to be desired. 5.) Subpar audio system... Honda's stock 8 speaker system is a 6/10! In conclusion, I enjoy my Honda especially since it is the most reliable economy car that has a great handling chasis as this 11th civic does. I plan to keep this car a long time and will do oil changes every 3-4k miles with 0W-20 Valvoline Full synthetic extended protection with a Mobil1-110A synthetic oil filter or a Fram Ultra synthetic 7317!!! Also, Change the transmission fluid every 25k miles with Honda genuine HCF-2 cvt fluid and only do a fluid change, no flush.... Lastly, I always put my E-brake on before I park so help the transmission along with letting the car warm up at least 30 seconds before driving off and driving easy for the first 15 minutes.

Very poor exterior paint quality

Very poor quality control on the paint jobs of these Civic’s. I have a black 2023 and the paint looks horrible with a dull look and lots of orange peel. The bumper still has buff marks from where it looks like the factory tried to fix the dull paint. Very disappointed in Hondas paint quality.
