- This is the all-new Honda Civic!
The previous edition of the Civic was one of the most popular & recognisable family cars on the road. The question is, does the all-new edition offer enough to sway you away from a different family hatchback?
Well, let’s see what’s on offer. In terms of the design, it’s markedly different to the previous model, with a swooping tailgate around the rear through to an updated front with LED headlights and a new grille.
On the inside, you’ll be treated to a simple but well-laid-out dash. There are good quality materials throughout most of the cabin, along with physical dials to make it easy to manage climate controls. The infotainment has also been updated, although it’s pretty middle of the road. Thankfully though, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto come as standard!
Considering it’s a family hatchback, it’s still not the cheapest. The entry-level edition starts at just under £30,000! But does it offer enough for you to still choose it over the competition? You’ll have to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

Describe the looks of the new Civic in ONE word!
Revised
It looks like civicy😄
Interesting
matured or redefined
Nostalgic.
That was actually a good explanation of how the civic's hybrid system works in all honesty
Ya sure it was a nice explanation
It was decent.
That was the funniest Car wow Review Ever loool

@@shriramk8467 which Matt reviewed about Civic 2020 Type R.
I will stay loyal to Honda for all my life. I drove a few of them and NEVER had a problem with them. Reliable, affordable and fun to drive. Best brand for me.
How long have you been alive then? ALL cars have some problem at one point in their lifespan
@@nilzr1 cry honda solos
@@nilzr1 I bought mine used with 58k miles and sold it with 140k miles on the clock and had ZERO problems. So I bought another Honda.
Yep, my very tidy old '03 Civic VTEC - used as a second car - runs like a champ. Always loved a Honda especially older models.
@@nilzr1 Hondas last 300,000+ Miles the point is its not something like a Ford that dies at 100k
Test drove it, now ordered it. Best car I’ve driven in years, very fast, very comfortable and roomy. Great thing about any Honda, is the tech works, it’s stable at any speed and this one’s feels luxurious.
Me too waiting for mine to arrive 😊
@@spjones463 It’s well worth the wait ! Picked up a cancellation, it’s an Elegance and has everything you need! Still on the waiting list for an Advance though 😂
How have you ordered it? Every dealer I’ve been to say that the order book is closed.
💀gl
what abound sound insulation?
I would give the looks of this car a 10/10 for one simple reason... I turn my head every single time I see one haha! It just looks so damn good
You've seen one ?
lol no, Mazda 3 hatchback will make every head turned, not this overrated CVT
I dont like it. 🤠
mazda 3 is too compact & non-turbocharged, this is faster and it has a bigger profile 👌🏻@@hughvdo
I honestly think the new civic looks amazing
Not even match 2020 Civic Type R tho.
GR Corolla better
yea I like this gen more than the last one, Type R included.
Yes now loving Hondas again!! Taking a break from liking Toyota and VW. Prev gen looked too much style. But regular previous Civic hands down, looks quite mature. So as the original 2012 Civic, I like how it was just having styling cues of a Civic.
@Teamgeist oh damn lol.! What a way to salvage times to a devout designer like me. I actually thought it was a Peugeot.
I love that Honda is going back to the simpler look, it shows the original creativity that they had put in their older cars and this one looks really amazing and the color is just creamy and nice
Beware of fraud gifts
Literally this ones look like copied from new BMW series, the color the vents placements, protruding screen on middle
Actually the design looks BMW-ish.
This colour is nah...
But red, white or black, especially red is incredible 😍
@@parishitegermain2936 Red on the mk10 civic looks really good too 🔥
I’m still amazed when I watch a review these days and see things like base civics costing £30k. Guess I’m still stuck in 2007 when a civic type r was £16k brand new 😅
How does it surprise you when the value of the pound is equal to the dollar now?
@@dooovde It's got to do with inflation over the past 15 years rather than something that happened a few days ago. All cars are more expensive now.
technology has come a long way and also safety and also infaltion so i understand
@@dooovde c oil l CD
It would not be something so bad if people earn 3 times more until than. But for some it could be difference of only some hundreds but car prices went crazy
I've had mine for a month and 4 days. I've put 6100km on it in that time and I've loved every minute of it. Driving motorway speeds, I get 57mpg (4.8L/100km). A 420mi run from Madrid to Gibraltar at 110km/h on the motorways and 50mph on the "A" roads here (A-7) and I used ~33L of petrol. Brilliant car to drive and great fun on the twisty roads.
So overall its a great car to live with? how good does it look styling wise, is it a bit bland or did your relatives/friends like the car's look
@@theweeknd2725 very easy to live with. Turning circle isn't brilliant, but you get used to it. I like the looks of it, doesn't look as busy as the Mk10
Hey! Looking to buy one aswell, can you please tell me about the interior build quality? And also a question which i haven’t seen been answered would be : can the battery be exhausted as in an electric car? Like what happens then? You have to replace it? Thanks!
@@exdakira hello! The interior build quality is excellent. I couldn't comment on the battery degredation as I haven't read too much into it, but having seen 15 year old hybrids still out on the road, you should be ok.
@@exdakira The engine build quality is very good and I am sure the battery will last for a long long time before any wear & tear (judging from the mk10 civic which I already own and it's already a superb car, this mk11 is definitely even better), when it comes to build quality I went to Honda's beautiful showroom and sat inside this car.. Yup.. It feels literally like an Audi inside it's so superb!
It might be a much simpler interior then my car and streamlined simpler looks, but it looks hella clean and clever eith how all the things are placed. Build quality itself is definitely next level, competing with Mazda and other premium competitors. It's 100% a car to go for (best value for money yet)
I love the way it has the profile of a saloon, especially at the front. I wish car design would return to traditional hatchbacks, saloons and estates. So much better looking than all the crossover blobs.
This looks like a crossover blob though lol
Half sedan, half hatchback.
I prefer not to go back.
Me too. It was a simpler time.
@@Tranny_Exterminator_9000 It doesn't seem to fit in liftback description either.
@@Tranny_Exterminator_9000 It looks similar to older cars like the first Volkswagen Passat or the Vauxhall Cavalier.
The new Honda Civic looks a little bit less aggressive than previous generation Honda Civic but it looks more cooler and sportier than the previous generation Honda Civic! I love the design of the new Honda Civic!
it's looks good in all body styles
@@aimanfitri0iv but still more like less the copy paste than the 1998 Infiniti G20 Coupe.
It reminds me of the Honda Civic coupé from 1997. I loved that car
You love everything you bot.
@@manuelight 6th gen coupe is legendary, even though I have a hatchback from the 6th generation lineup I still want a coupe someday, in the SI electron blue paint.
I am used to driving SUVs . When my suv got bumped and landed in claim i borrowed my father's civic.
I just love it. It is so so smooth to drive the pickup is so smooth. You feel like a snake while zipping past the cars.
Due to sudden surge in crossovers and suvs in my county. It is sad to see people missing out on this absolute beauty of a car.
I decided to keep it a little longer and exchanged it with my father. It is an aboslute joy to drive this car.
I used to watch your videos few yrs back. It's a bit surprising to see your enthusiasm and fun side during the car reviews not as before.
Cool colour, sweet design, reliable engine.
Yep. But just a bit dull to drive tho.
Reliable engine? Wut?
@@bigglyguy8429 It's not reliable?
The 1.5 T had it's share of oil dilution problems. But Honda sorted that out by now. It's common sense that any of those tiny, turbo charged engines will not run forever like the naturally aspirated ones used to. But Honda gives you an option of 2.0l NA for this car which is what I would go for.
@@purwantiallan5089 退屈ならNSXを買ってみて下さい。満足です
I found it interesting that the UK gear selector is buttons, because the US version shows a traditional gear selector. And I have to admit, the buttons looks much more open and modern. Also, the US version does nor get a hybrid yet. I don't always see the logic in car manufacturers' market specific choices. I have owned 8 Civics in my life, and this model seems more mature without being stuffy. Maybe it should be number 9? Number 9, Number 9, Number 9, Number 9, Number 9, Number 9, Number 9, Number 9. (The Beatles - Revolution 9)
only hybrid variant gets a gear selector with buttons
@@merdem7805 not exactly true. The hybrid sedan which is only available at Thailand atm is still using a traditional gear selector
You found that interesting? Remind me to never invite you round for dinner.
u have to thankfull brother in our country civic doesn't have led lights
It has vents for the rear seats because of the button shifter. Every honda is hybrid or electric in the UK. They get a few better features like matrix headlights too. I have the 6m and the shifter is amazing. But I think I like the UK setup better. I'm hoping it will come in a hybrid integra later. Trade mine in. Like other Hondas I've had, I end up liking them too much.
I have had Hondas for 23 years (4 Accord 2.4s and a Civic Prestige).all totally reliable. Took delivery of a Civic e:HEV Advance (the subject of the review) 3 weeks ago and I am loving it. It took a week or so to get used to the fully auto hybrid system but now it is great.
Your random and unorthodox interior and feature review was GREAT!
The new Civic is amazing and i can’t wait for the Type R to be available.
Im actually surprised at how fast this new one came to Europe. I thought Honda isn’t particularly successful here. At least where i live.
I would definitely consider buying the Type R when it’s available.
The 2023 Civic looked like a scaled down 1998 Nissan Primera G20.
@@purwantiallan5089 a little bit yeah lol
@@purwantiallan5089
It does... to a partially sighted man riding a pogo stick.
Better off getting the previous generation type r - more wild, aggressive, fun.
It‘s not really early, the civic has been on sale for over a year in north america
6.79 for 0-60 for a family hybrid car is really impressive. The exterior design is a step forward from last gen, but the interior, not my taste.
I'm really considering to buy one, 21km/l is insane for this car.
That is stepping into the boundaries of quick. There are plenty of feckwits these days that are too influenced by Forza and what some car journalists say and would say something which does 0 to 60 inbetween 6 and 7 seconds is slow. I'd be surprised if a lot of them had owned something that quick let alone been a passenger in something like that.
@@skylined5534 true that, imo anything below 10s for 0-100kmh/0-60mph is already quick, under 6/7s fast boi
exactly, thats some serious number
That's indeed not bad. It's crazy how nowadays Family eco friendly cars are Almost as fast as the early gens Civic Type R. The EP3 and FN2 take like 6 - 6.5sec. And those really don't feel slow at all.
best presentation ever,funny and easily explained how the hubrid system works for this honda!!!
The rev sound u hear is actually the engine charging the battery as you push it. Truly amazing what Honda has achieved. Love your review Matt!
Doubt it. The engine doesn't change gears, because there's no need. No gearbox either. The engine is probably running at constant rpms, slightly varying at times so that it generates more power.
So no, that's not how the engine sounds when generating current, sorry. The fake sound is just fake and ridiculous.
EDIT: Maybe the sound at the end, where he does 0-60 can be real or at least could make sense. It just sounds like a CVT, going up in rpms and staying there. Not particularly enjoyable to listen to.
@@mircea5013 I think your wrong. I like it
@@speak_your_truth. well, it's still fake and ridiculous, but it's your right to like it 😁😂
@@mircea5013 indeed the sounds it made when driving around were all fake and did not match what the engine was actually doing. The accurate sound was when he did the 0-60 runs. It sounds like a CVT because when you floor it the ECM just tells the engine to sit at peak power RPM. It's actually more responsive than a CVT because you don't have to wait for the "cones" in the gearbox to move around. Probably why the 0-60 times are very impressive for a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine in a sizable car.
@@mircea5013 The thing is that the sound is augmented in the sport mode through speakers, sounds a bit silly I'll give you that. However on normal and eco the sound is purely from the engine, it goes up and down on rpm's to simulate gear changing, "gearbox" is fake but sound is 100% real - for my taste much better than the fake sport one.
Great review. Sub 7 seconds, that's crazy for a hybrid that does 50-60 MPG
My hybrid SUV does 60+ mpg (best I’ve had is 82) and 0-60 in 5s, not really crazy.
@@AegisM which car u have?
@@AegisM way more expensive a car though
@@AegisM So, double the price then. Not really comparable.
@@italianjob4947 my car is 4 years old now, the claim made no reference to price and I’d expect in 4 years that progress is made. What I’m getting at here is that it’s not exactly crazy but hey ho. Enjoy the civic if you buy one. I had an EP3 type R that never let me down once.
That hybrid system is absolutely genius
Is it? I think deleting the transmission is bold. But I wonder if the car is more efficient at 70mph than a hybrid car with 8spd auto
@@brianm5753 I believe it uses a CVT and those are usually fuel efficient
I mean.. what would be ghe Car's power figure?
Ev or ICE?
@@brianm5753 Yes! It is.
Overcomplicated. Will be extremely expensive to repair in 10 years time. Good luck with that.
I’ve had 4 standard size internal doors in my 2017 civic. Seats down much flatter than a Focus. You can get a road bicycle in no issues. Main gripe of a 2017 is the ABS sensors failing usually in wet weather. Just had my second one changed in 9 months. Puts all the sensors into amber mode. Too many sensors on modern cars. I get 50mpg in my 1L. Goes very well 👌🏻 I commute 50 miles per day.
Your reviews are always thorough and to the point.👍
Actually a fantastic car. Simple, useful and good interior choices. But it looks sporty. Only thing i’d change is the behind of the car, its better than the previous model but not quite there yet
Previous model looked better especially the Claw rear lights, used to stand out nicely in night time! I think the previous civic just stood out much more, and was really sporty looking and beautiful in person. Let's see how this one goes to be, definitely looks a bit more bland but clean tho
The 10th gen hatch was pretty awful with those huge fake grills. However the 10th gen sedan's back is a thing of beauty. I love the back of the 10th gen sedan (i just recently got a 10th gen civic ex sedan, 2020 with just 17k miles on it). I don't know why they screwed up the hatch version of the 10th gen. They should have just kept the sedan's backing for the hatch.
@@theweeknd2725 I feel like the other one was trying too hard, it looks much better cleaner than it did before.
The saloon version is beautiful and the rear is perfect. Trouble is we cant it here in UK, it looks amazing
First time I see Matt doing a car review with the I can’t be arsed attitude 😂
Mat is in a bad mood isn't he
He is still upset about Charles III taking the throne
Beware of fraud gifts
My last couple of cars have been German. But I've had fantastic experiences in the past with Honda. Incredible build quality. Legendary reliability. I will probably go back to them again in the future.
Received ours last week in red, its stunning to look at and Wonderfull to drive
that 2nd overtake was dangerous, Matt :(
Yeah struck me as well. Maybe the car in front was with Matt and gave him the nod to go (and they had better view). Maybe!
@@wallace-bv4rl could be. but still one can't estimate for another. He was not in a 500 bhp+ car :(
Sport touring 1.5t owner from the states here, amazing car. I do wish the top trim got some of the bits from this euro variant like the pano roof, rear vents, and driver’s lumbar adjustment but the car has been absolutely fantastic so far
It also has adaptive headlights
I also wish Europe got the 1.5T like in the old generation.
@@Dranzell it’s actually one of the less reliable engines from Honda due to oil dilution. So I actually prefer this. Faster more economical and no CVT gearbox
Same. I like the matrix lights too. The led are nice but they have a better package. I hope we get a hybrid integra with these features. The button shifters allow vents for the back seats.
@@Gabztar97 That's on the early models. Mine (2020 facelift model) has 60k km and doesn't have that issue yet.
Most reviewers don't talk about the Spaciousness for a compact sedan like the civic, this is the only car with best leg room in its class. Nothing even comes close. In comparison Mazda 3, Toyota corolla feel smaller
as an acura invetory photographer the gear box gets SO easy to get used to, and it feels great to just pull the reverse and push the drive.
That hybrid system sounds brilliant, I just hope it's reliable.
Honda has done hybrids since a couple of years both crz and civic for example.
@@_TrueDesire_ CRZ Integra and NSX also.
@@_TrueDesire_ The same style of hybrid as this, though? Where the ICE is only used to charge the battery and not actually power the wheels?
it will be very reliable, the design they use has LESS wearing parts than a conventional drivetrain. Also naturally aspirated engine with 2l displacement.
@@blackjack2150 it’s called series hybrid and Nissan has been doing it for atleast 5 years now. It’s very reliable and economical.
Can't wait for the Type R test!
Maybe January 2023.
Love the gear selector buttons. When u get used to it u would never wanna switch back again.
Damn you Mat, now I really want one. If my CR-Z ever kicks the bucket, I'm getting one. I love the looks, I love the technology and now you've confirmed it's good to drive I'm sold!
You're a physical knob, Matt, and that's why we love you!
Messing about aside, this seems like a step back to the styling cues of the FK, but with a modern twist!
That driveline is trick too, I'm shocked hybrids haven't adopted the 'diesel/electric' locomotive approach.
I do recall Rover (when still in charge of the R50 Mini project) did look into an indirect petrol/electric drive train. I wish it had come to be as it would have sidestepped the crap range of electric cars back in the day and still got good economy.
P.s. I love the way it 'sounds'. Would be great if you use any engine sound from a detroit diesel to a 90s Renault V10 F1 engine 😂
You have the better package. I'm in the USA and have the 6m. I like the button for shifters, you get vents in the backseat, matrix lights and better sunroof. The grip is wild on this car. I hope they make an integra hybrid with these features.
Great review 👏, Was the traction control off and was the car running on regular unleaded or premium?
Thankyou
I test drove the sport model a couple of weeks ago and loved it ,it's ample quick enough for what it is and drives great .
The only thing was the price so think I'll wait a couple of years and buy 2nd hand 👍
I have the sport touring trim here in US. It has real exhaust tips. Bose speaker. It’s 👍
Looks like a late 80's/90's Japanese sedan particularly the front with its long & low hood and slim lights & grille. I love the interior esp. the dash it looks expensive!
This is the review that got me to but my civic and i love every moment driving it. So easy, so reliable, so interactive, everything is just so 1 with me.
Thank you for uploading video at new honda civic us!! I pleased to review new honda civic for you.
"Everyone loves a physical knob" - Mat Watson 2022
13:33 very safe overtaking there Matt.
Hahahahaha overtaking on a Blindspot !
Look closer, the car ahead has cameras attached for filming purposes. Carwow videos are for most part shot on closed roads.
I’ve had my Advance since November - absolutely love it.
Finally a proper hybrid car. I think that this is the future not fully electric vehicles. Great job Honda!
Don't worry Mat! I understood everything you said about the engine it's not confusing!
The engine looked cool.
Bot bot bot
I like how the airbag jiggle jiggled when Matt adjusted the steering 😏
Honda civic is such a good car. I’ve driven loads of cars but this is up there for sure. Super comfortable super reliable and very fun to drive.
This car is great! Had it for a weekend and was surprised how good it is. Never thought will say it about civic, because that was always to crazy looking to me.
I like how they used an Audi S8 (I think) to film the review of the Honda Civic 😂. The new civic is a whole lot more sensibly designed though, which is a fresh breath of air!
I love this color! Rear end looks a little weird although it's much better than the old one. The only version of this generation civic that's being sold in my country is the 4-door sedan and I think the sedan rear end looks a lot better.
It's disgusting colour sadly in my opinion but red, white, black is 😍
I think the old model looks significantly better
ty for the review ... great work as always ... btw i'm luvin the knobs and buttons, massive TY for keeping them Honda ... tho that mesh vent is kool will be a pita to keep clean in dusty areas so they evened out my liking ... all and all great accord ** cough ** I meant Civic, sry it was so huge I kinda mistook it ... lol j/k cause I do like it over all.
Went to a dealer, did a test drive. Value for money, fun to drive and you got a nice kick, brilliant and smart interior. Dislike the arm rest in the back and 60:40 rear split (no through loading system…). What I’m missing the most is awd to be honest. Reading rumors there will be ZR-V coming 2023 so if you can wait and really need 4x4 this would be an alternative in bespoke SUV
Really like both the new exterior and interior design !
Yep. But 2020 Honda Civic Type R is far better honestly.
@@purwantiallan5089 I personally prefer this design over the old one
Absolutely love it. The only thing missing is a VTec mode and of course the R badge that we're looking forward to. Even this version will be very tempting to swap an MPV to considering the space and the fun to drive aspect with the looks even sounds pretty good on the outside as well, As Matt says Honda engineers are geniuses and do actually listen to the customers.
I 2nd everything you just said. If by some miracle I can fit my xl bike in with the seats down. Then it will be hard to say no. (coming from a current mpv/suv owner)
@@AM-zq8ro I could fit a 29" MTB in my 07 Civic no problem with the seats down. The access was actually wider/deeper and easier than my A4 Avant estate.
Ahhh been looking for this comment, there is a new E-Tec mode, lots of torque and shove. See Matt's smile when he accelerates!
This is basically an electric car with a petrol range extender. Honda pulled a blinder!
@@thabzmad7265 no it's not 🙄
@@ln5747 I presume you miss the roar of the V-tec? In that case, sorry for us all😭
Was looking forward to this. I have the newest Jazz and it seems like many of the features carry over. Climate controls and infotainment seems like it's the same at least. Lovely car, but every time I have to explain the hybrid system to someone I always struggle. Also very efficient, I average between 25 and 30 km per liter on the way to work (which is a good mix of city, main roads and motorway)
How beautiful design does this Honda have! I like this color as well!
I wish they'd do a super stealth Type R... and have it looking exactly like this one!
The latest Type R is at least a little toned down and doesn't look like a ripspeed at Halfords ram raid victim. But a real Q car version would be incredible.
Thanks again for the video matt!❤

Hi Brendan, ever tried out Integra Type R yet?
@@purwantiallan5089 make it you mean?
The over quoting 0-60 time (quoted more time than real) thing is what Honda has always done with their hybrids. I think the quoted 0-60 time is what’s achieved in the eco mode. The reason your 2nd run took longer is likely that it’s run the battery down in your earlier attempt
they did it actually with normal cars too.. my mk8 1.8 5d Civic is rated at 8.9s but I got even 8.3s easily, not as big of a difference but still... And I am not an amazing sports driver and mine is manual
I actually like the fact that right now Honda uses the old-school USB ports, because as of right now most chargers are still have USB-A to Lightning/ USB-C cables. Also, when the most chargers become USB-C to lightning/ USB-C, they can just change it in the newer models for less than £1/ car
Most use USB-C to USB-C or Lighting now, the USB-C port can offer up to 100w of charging and power delivery. Your USB-A port is extremely relative to that. For the everyday man, this means the fastest charging speeds.
@@AxemanMessiah as if the car can give 100w charging. No. Recently, a lot of ppl I know and even I got brand spanking new phones. (Abt. 8 ppl.) All but one have A to C chargers
@@whotf888 thats your friend group, not everyone. USB-C has capability to 100w, but doesn't mean it needs to be. 30w is great and also will open up other accessories. Don't get hostile lol
you can always just get an adapter bro
@@AxemanMessiah OnePlus does 100W over USB-A but almost nothing supports their SuperVOOC charging protocol :/
I wish they'd bring back the back seats that you could fold upwards. It's mad how often I used that on the 8th gen civic
But all in all, once again, another great civic.
That Civic was based on the Fit/Jazz plarform, a smaller one than the North American Civic/CR-V/Accord one.
Beware of frauds
Nice review👍 For some people the new Civic might be more economical than an electric car driving few miles per year or a plug-in hybrid car driving many. Therefore the new Civic with is strange motor combination still makes sense in 2022 even dough it’s a bit expensive.
But as we all know quality has its price.
For me the new Civic is an absolute dream car I would love to have in my garage
Beware of frauds
It's great to see them using the Honda Clarity hybrid tech in a better way. I have one and love it, but it doesn't simulate gears so you just have the noise of 6000 rpm constantly if you punch it on gas and that tends to worry people lol.
Beautiful car and wonderful review. Thanks.
This is really impressive. Good car - and a good explanation of their hybrid system 👍
Mr. Watson never disappoints with the reviews, excellent design Civic is really sporty.

@@soul_____489 Reporting the channel itself for impersonation. After all, they do use carwow's profile picture.

Swapped over a BMW G20 to this and i did appreciate it. Cant compare brands, designs vs good reliability. thats all we want in a good car
Great review Matt, really like the look of this particular civic. I have a 2019 Ford Focus st line x and i'm looking to change it. Do you think the Civic is as good or better than the focus,especially in the handling department?
it deserves a "buy" advice. Best current car in its class considering its competitors, hands down
A hybrid car which is fuel efficient but at the same time accelerates like an electric. That is a unique combination
Bought a 2022 Sport Touring Hactback at MSRP!! Great daily to rest the weekend warrior- 2019 Type R!!
Can't wait to see his review of new type R😊😊
This car defeats the sense of having a crossover. Its sporty yet so practical!
Would be a 10/10 if they had left rear headroom instead of styling a sloping roof
@@brianiswrong and a smaller hump in the middle
@@brianiswrong tbh i rarely have back seat passengers and love the sloping roof in general, so i dont mind
Its good enough for my teens and occasional adult friend rides but I hear you
If only they'd make another Tourer. The hatchback really doesn't have enough rear headroom or boot space for me.
Fake exhausts, vents and diffusers are so depressing it should be illegal.. thank god for Matt and his trustworthy stick of truth 🙏🏼
Dang! I line this guy. Gets straight to the point!!
I've owned Toyotas and Hondas. In my experience Hondas are more reliable, have fewer problems over the long run, are better priced, have a solid feel and drive. Also I think the dealers are better.
Seems mat has been watching the straight pipes reviews for the visor test👍
Love the civics have had 4 different shapes of them now and loved them all.
Bro this guy is hilarious 😂 Great review with humor mixed in.
Great review, just a shame you didn't mention whether or not it's plugin and, if it is, what the size of the battery is!
Wow we get way more civic options here in Canada. Can't believe you can only get the hybrid model there!
Its a uk Government thing, all new cars from 2030 have either got to be pure electric or hybrid .So they're gradually phasing out petrol and diesel vehicles.
I didn't expect you to be so goofy. I'm here for it. Subbed.
2006 HONDA CIVIC
A very appealing car, I really like its sporty liftback-shape and interior. Almost tempts me to trade in my current model Mazda 3 for one ...
This is a very well thought out well engineered car and is one of the best in class. Yes it is an expensive car, but if this car was an Audi, VW or Mercedes with all the technology this Honda has, then Matt would not be complaining about price and would say in summary just go ahead and buy it. I would have the new Honda Civic over any German or French rival. A great car and will prove to be very reliable and a great long term buy. Well done Honda.
Today I got phone call from local Honda dealer who wanted to schedule a test drive with me.
The guy told me that if I ordered now, the waiting time is 12 months. Months.
That's the throughout on the manufacturing side.
I'm located in Poland.
@@tubetotto same here in Malaysia. 12months+ waiting time. Wtff
@@fariszaini5340 I wonder if it's global, or Honda prioritizes bigger markets like UK or Germany.
@@tubetotto The UK and Germany aren't big markets for Honda.
First Civic without a manual gearbox. Very interesting. It’s still available with a 6-speed in North America, though there is no hybrid option here.

Took delivery of my Civic Advance today….Great Car! Can’t fault it and I have all the German models…. Honda is better all round. 🚗😀
Take off the Fold 3's inside screen protector, its peeled off in the center (Common issue) I've removed mine since 4 months and its much smoother, Nice review as always 😊
Really nice car, in design, ergonomy and I am sure in driving experience! The only drawback is the high price. But I would choose it over a Mercedes A or BMW 1 base version. I would be interested if Mat reviewed the RAV4 prime and the new Corolla Cross.
Just received my Sport Touring in pearl white three days ago here in Canada (made in the UK). Key differences in Canada from the UK versions: we get a gear stick (either manual or CVT), a top option of a 1.5 turbo at 180hp that beats all it competitors in fuel efficiency, the head lining and entire interior is black but standard size sunroof not pano sunroof, steering and rear seats have heating but no rear vents, Bose speakers at the top trim, no fake plastic exhausts (Crome cut outs instead). Before taxes and delivery.. the top trim was billed to me right under 37000CAD before my Honda royalty discount. I’d say we got the better end of the stick :)
If it's a UK built car then that'll the old FK8 Civic because the UK factory has been shutdown since last July.
Your car is still using the older engines of the 10th gen civic, both are available here on the mk10 hatchback 1.0 Turbo & 1.5 VTEC Turbo with 182 bhp.
I think the european model is definitely a lot more advanced compared to american versions, and ofcourse more fuel efficient (big difference) to normal combustion you got in canada. Sad that you weren't able to get this advanced and performancy updated industry competitive e:HEV system, and better specs in UK for the same price too (further researched, developed and tested for europe therefore this Civic released a year or two later then america) but the manual is always a joy to use. 😉
Still have the mk10 civic turbocharged vtec in manual, and it's a perfect manual. Fun to use, very sporty and gripping (more sportier than the mk11 from all respects) and great to drive too.
Definitely enjoyed watching Matt play with those knobs
I like the last Civic FK7/8
Looks badass
