- The 2022 Honda Civic is an early candidate for best compact sedan of the year. What's changed? A refined exterior, a comfortable interior, and a price point that impresses in 2021. For it's 11th generation, the Honda Civic is miles ahead of the Toyota Corolla and other rivals, and could very well be the best car in it's segment. So let's take an in-depth look at the 2022 Honda Civic Touring to see how it compares to some of the top competitors.
Huge thank you to Honda North in Danvers, MA for providing the Honda Civic Touring for this review!

Look how this man dose a 360 walk around not a zoom n I can actually see this care beautiful 🤩 nice 👍🏾 🎥
Great review 👍🏽
Thanks Carl!
Looks good.
I never like Honda Civic until now, this is impressive
Hillarious how they keep saying 30k is a budget car
Why can’t they put a rear AC vent? Lower models like city has it..😕
Definitely looks a lot better than last year. Too bad Toyota doesn't get away from that same design language with too many opposing angles.
I agree. There’s a lot going on there with the overall design. Needs to be simplified and probably more minimalistic for the exterior. Definitely needs to be revamped as the interior is way behind rivals in this segment.
@@BostonAutoBlog I already believe this is what Toyota is doing haha.
Worth noting the Bose sound system on the touring is pretty good and the first named system for the civic. A few nitpicks: no lumbar for driver (why?), no memory seats, grainy rear view camera for 2021. Overall seems like a winner for Honda and impressed with the package. Hopefully you can review the hatch as well.
I definitely want to get my hands on the hatch for sure! The lower quality rear backup camera surprised me, I was expecting better especially for the touring. Memory seats would be an added plus in the future for this gen
I personally don't mind about the not having lumbar. I'm personally more suprised that it's there when I find it on cars but I never really adjust it that much. Just ads to more things that can break. Also I don't mind about memory seats. I believe manual mechanical seats are the supreme supriror race. I have this old toyota and the seats are becoming older, and they are the part I'm having a hard time replacing the most. You have to buy expensive, uncommon assemblies to part out because they probably have problems too, or dig through a junk yard and hope you find your exact part that isn't also too far gone or too new that it bungles up the gears. Also they are fairly reliable it seems even on some large people, due to what I believe is gear reduction. These are a lot of complex parts assembled in a very complex way. The more you add to the seat the more complex it is. Having a 20 year old toyota makes me wish they made both the seats mechanical. Because the car still has 20 years left to live if taken care of if you ask me as would Hondas. So to me it's worth replacing but it would be nice if they were mechanical simply because of the advantage of quick driver changes. Yeah it doesn't carry you like a bitch that needs his hand held and that's nice sometimes sure, but that's what the higher end models are for. totally Mechanical and build tough and simple is more reliable, quicker to adjust and thats what you want in a 20,000 dollar car that you know many people will be driving for a long time if it's taken care of if you ask me. One thing that still bums me out is I love car paint as much as the next guy, but their has to be some way that's more reliable and not a plastic sticker that costs too much and only lasts a couple years if you're lucky in harsh enviorments. Would be dope if you could park this thing in the sun for 30 years and it didn't sun fade. It would be nice to have something that is easier to maintain somehow and longer lasting maybe in the economical, workhorse type Honda. I still think they should go back to some kind of sexy ass simple headlight and taillight housing. Even the same style as I think they're getting better at their style and you can tell they're working hard and doing good work. It would just make it easier to have some kind of glass or other material besides plastic that fades and becomes brittle over the years, and costs a fortune sometimes to replace. At least for the person that's trying to save a buck by buying an older used car. I love my old Toyota so much that I'm willing to resolve the headlights after they degrade too far, but it's not cheap for someone like me. Once you have to add up fixing a complicated seat, and a few expensive headlight assemblies you're hurting if something bad happens to it. It would be nice if the headlights were constructed so they were easy to replace lights, and the plastic didn't fall apart when you had to try to do it. So I actually think Honda is making some very calculated tactical decisions here and I like that. Who cares about an electric car that has fee moving parts in the motor, if everything above the motor is a nightmare to someone who's played with a few tools once in a while to work on and requires all these special tools? All that's going to happen is when tough times hit, everything will be too complicated and need too many parts replaced to keep it all going. I think Honda is making a car that appeals to many people and theyre moving In a way that appeals to many people with some of their models and trims as compared to others. I like when I am capable of fixing almost everything by myself, and not having to work on it much because of its reliability. If I'm buying the fully kitted car I know I might not be able to rely on it as heavily because it's more complicated by design and thus, the seat might go out sooner and you'll have to see if you can fix it or have someone else or if you're fucked. I like what Honda is doing. I just still can't stand how the whole industry is still using plastic headlights. If they're so settled on glass being gone eventhough it's better if you ask me, then I think these auto guys should start using other materials or something to solve the problem of the fading and brittle plastic over the years.. the paint flaking or wearing out. I look at the american rifle industry and they seem to be able to coat metal with the most durable coatings you could imagine. Their has to be a way to color a car red in a way that will last the the 5 generations of college students that are going to beat on it after it's already been beat on and still looks good on the side of the street because it's parked outside its whole life. If you're spending on a budget new car you want to get your dollars worth. 20k is a lot of money. It might be several dozen, maybe even hundreds of thousands of people's hands throughout it's lifetime, you just don't know. So these cars have to be reliable and the fewer things you have to work on the better, and the things you do it's nice if you can figure it out and it's reliable and easy to fix. I think removing the lumbar saves Honda some money, saves the consumer a couple of bucks, and problem slightly increases seat lifespan. It's a good move if you ask me on these base models. I love the direction Hondas been going. I question thee move for engine lifespan with these turbo charges 1.5 liter engines though. This old Toyota has a 2.2 but it's probably less power and Les advanced as what Honda is using today and it's still fast enough, so I'd be interested in putting the pedal down in one of these 4 cylinder 2.0 civics. Although I'm not in the market to buy one lmao. I don't really like these CVTs either. Someone has to come in and flip the script with some kind of wildly advanced, ultra reliable and affordable regular gear type transmission that's easier to work on. Idk man I'm just dreaming a dream car at this point
Show muito top 👌👌👌👌
I can get a 2022 Accord special edition for that price. I'm sure they won't be their top seller once everyone gets wind of the price
$30k for a Civic! Sad times we in
This was sub 29k 6months ago now its 30-34k lol
I don't think the MSRP changed. Just greed fed dealerships. Doing what they do best. Separating good people from their hard-earned money. You want to talk fair market value. No they don't. I hope every single one of them fall flat on their face.
How about compared with Mazda 3….?
The Mazda3 is the overlooked option in this segment. At the same price as the Touring it will have similar features, also a traditional automatic, and optional AWD. Lack of tech and the infotainment system is where it will fall short. I'm not a huge fan of the naturally aspirated engine but the 6 speed automatic makes up for it. Having reviewed the hatch earlier this year, I'd say spend extra for the turbo and you have a better car than most in this segment, but I'm not quite sure with the base engine that I'd say the ride comfort and quality is where it needs to be at $29k. I just think it's getting a bit outdated. Needs to be refreshed.
Good luck trying to find one, especially the turbo 2.5. Civic looks better anyway.
@@mic7856 It's tough finding a lot of cars right now. It was a frustrating few weeks trying to find a 2022 Civic on inventory
Good review but why does he keep saying for anything negative, “not surprising for a car that is $30k”. $30k is a lot for a compact car. So, at $30k, a civic should have everything short of Tesla’s Autopilot!
The average price for a new car in 2021 is $40k, so it wouldn't be a stretch to say that $30k isn't that expensive, especially when you take into consideration the price for used cars right now. Cars in the price range often lack refinement, especially with the driving dynamics, but also you tend to get what you pay for with interior quality and design.
I understand, but $30k for a civic is huge stretch, and the used car price in current conditions is not a factor as the MSRP itself is $29k. 30k is luxury level for a compact car like civic.
It's not a baby honda accord, it's teenager honda accord. It's the accords little brother not the accords son.
🤜🤛👏👊👌🙏
$30,000 for a Civic...? I paid $28,700 for 2019 Kia Optima SX
Yeah but I can get a Kia K5 GT for 3k more
Stop saying 2022. It’s understood after the first 5 times
