Road Noise! Tin can loud!

I purchased a 2025 Civic Sport on 3/29/25 and after one day of driving I’m ready to trade it off. 30k down the drain! My wife & I test drove it locally around the dealership and never took it out on the highway and that’s where we made a huge mistake. MONSTER MISTAKE! Anything over 40 mph and the people in the backseat won’t be able to talk to each other or have a conversation with the people in the front. Anything over 55mph on a concrete highway and you can’t hear the stereo unless it’s at half volume, and forget about having any type of conversation. It’s noisy!! All the previous reviews that complain about the braking and lighting issues are correct. As we left the dealership I about had an accident when the lane assist yanked the steering wheel and I about swerved into a passing car. Super scary and I’m glad my 16yr old daughter wasn’t driving it. I’m 55 and I’ve bought roughly 15 new cars in my time and this is by far the biggest disappointment. I gave it two stars because it looks nicer than the competitors but that’s being generous. It’s prettier than the competitors but drivability and road noise are a serious issue with the 2025 Civic Sport Sedan.

Disappointing

2025 Honda Civic Sport Hybrid 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl gas/electric hybrid EVT)

32 mpg and filling up twice on a six hour drive is extremely disappointing. We got 52mpg from our Hyundai Ioniq and filled up once on a 1200 mile drive. The seat heaters are on timers and shut off and there is a subscription to get a garage door opener on this car. The smart cruise control will suddenly slow the car abruptly with no car in front of us. SO much regret selling our Ioniq to our daughter because she needed a reliable car. I would have skipped over this car had I known it was no better than a gas only Elantra. Has good pickup but that’s about the only plus.

Roomy Peppy Great Handling

There is a surprising amount of passenger and trunk space! It really gets up and goes when you need it without delay or effort. Steering and braking is better than I expected. One problem is learning all of the display and controls. It dies so much!

Love the advanced technology and safety features such as lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control. Hybrid gets excellent gas mileage. Enjoy the integration of the phone through carplay. Nice fit and finish in the interior.

AFFORDABLE SPORTS CAR

As someone who has previously driven the Lexus IS 350 sedan, I can tell you that you will love driving this car in sport mode. The acceleration is amazing and It looks and feels great. You don’t even think the car is running when you start it because of the Hybrid gas / electric motor. For $35,000 you also get all the bells and whistles of their Touring sedan. In addition, 40+ miles to the gallon with No Electric Charging required. It recharges itself!

This car is the fastest car from a standing start that I've driven. Great torque & acceleration. Quiet drive coupled with great mileage. Currently its giving me 48 MPG. Has every option I wanted & Honda has not left anything the average driver would expect in this model of a very low priced vehicle compared to todays reported average MSRP of cars for sale in the Us today. Great room for a small sedan with comfortable seats front & back. Loaded with all current safety features. This car will be hard to beat for the price.

It is a fun to drive smaller vehicle with very good MPG. IMO the ONLY reason to buy the Sport Touring is the 9" display with wireless carplays. It has more road noise that I'd like at higher speeds.

4th Civic; best one yet!

I’ve had a 2014, 2019, 2022, and now, a 2025 Civic. This one beats them all by a mile. At first, I had trouble getting up to the advertised MPG but after 1k-2k miles, I’m getting around 48mpg in combined driving which I’m thrilled with. This car is so easy and fun to drive. Problems with Apple CarPlay are minimal and I’ve felt comfortable on long drives, despite the lack of lumbar support.

2025 Sport Touring is excellent

Recently purchased a 2025 Sport Touring Civic and am impressed with the quality of the fit and finish inside and out. This thing has zip yet an amazing ride. The Edmunds review pretty much captures all of the high and low points pretty accurately.
