The lane keep assist is insane on this thing like for real it blew me away. It literally keeps the car dead center even in pretty good turns. Basically drives itself.
It has 7 simulated gears. The car actually has a CVT, which makes the paddles more of a gimmick than anything else. But its probably more fun than nothing and is good for snow and steep hills
I just picked up my 2023 civic sport in the same exact color today! So far, I love this vehicle. So many options & absolutely fantastic! Great video sir.
That’s awesome and you’re welcome. The black on black look sooo good, the only reason I didn’t get that color combo is bc I have two black trucks and I wanted something a bit different!!
Thanks for the feedback! Currently picking one up tomorrow - black on black. Any suggestions on wiper blades that you feel work best with this one? Tires as well? Thanks
I paid for one that should be here on 11/21. I got a white sports touring hatchback. I am a bit concerned with that honeycomb dash though. Seems like a tough thing to keep clean.
I got a new 2022 Honda Civic sport back in October. And I love it. But I wish it came with a wireless charger. And blind spot monitoring. Also power and heated seats.
I got to say I have daily driven Honda Accords for over 20 years. Never once have I (in the past) said "wow look at that civic". Up till the 11th gen the Civic has been boring looking (minus the Type-r). But last week while shopping for a 2022 Honda Accord, I had to test drive the 2023 Civic Sport. Short story, now I am looking at a 2023 Honda Civic Sport Touring (Hatch) to replace my 9th gen Accord. The RPM think, never noticed it in the CVT version of the 2023 Civic Sport. Maybe it's just the Manual version? Great job Honda, the tech in the Civic has surpassed my expectations for a commuter car. Looking forward to driving my new Civic soon.
I left a comment on the things I hate about the civic. I enjoyed that video, and I enjoyed this one also. How can you tell if you have ventilated front rotors? Thanks for the two videos. 🐢 😀 🐢 👍
i came from a 2021 Honda Accord 2.0 Sport so naturally once the new civic came out i wanted the touring trim. I am glad i did not make that choice. The touring trim is 30 grand and for that price you can just buy an accord which is obviously a better car all around. I would never pay 30 grand for a civic anyways unless its a type R or something. The touring trim is ugly and has grandma looking rims and chrome accents on the side with chrome on the rims as well. I hate chrome. The sport looks sick as hell the way it looks. That naturally aspirated 2.0 engine does got a little kick to it. Its more then enough power for sure. For the price point its a steal. So now i have my 2022 civic sport in white pearl and i love it so much. Best decision no regrets. Great video by the way.
Congrats on your purchase and I agree that the touring model isn’t that great looking. Most definitely for the price the sport model accord is an all around better car and looks better vs the touring model civic. That being said you can absolutely get a sport model civic for 6-7k less and it’s a hell of a steal. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoy your new purchase!!
I feel you on the Touring. Like for the price, why not just get an Accord? Crazy thing is, I saw a 2 year old one for 50K and it had 10K miles…..it sold 3 days later. I have a 2018 1.5t Accord Sport. Love it. I wouldn’t mind getting a new one, so probably will wait until this madness dies down.
@@kaceydillin7367 i had a 1.5 accord sport too. Its an amazing car. Way better then the new 2022 civic touring for sure. Upgrade to the 2.0 you will love it.
@@Rip84LW I looked into it. I live in Texas. Heated seats would be nice maybe 1 day a year. Worse gas mileage, but more power? For me, the 2.0 isn’t worth it.
@@kaceydillin7367 the 2.0 accord is an amazing car. Honestly the gas is a non issue. it does great on gas for the engine it has. i never had a problem with it when i had mine when it came to gas. The heated seats felt so good on those winter days. The power is a night and day difference compared to the 1.5 i had. Its fast as hell and super fun to drive. but in my opinion now is not the time to buy an accord because the all new re designed accord is about to show itself. We are due for a new accord very soon. I say in about a year or less. Its coming.
I was looking at the Civic sport also. Then I discovered that it doesn't have heated seats or a moonroof and it also has less horsepower than the EX and Touring. The sport should have the same horsepower as the upper trims if you asked me. 😬🙄
It has a CVT it doesn't have gears. The paddle shifters simulate gears within the range of the CVT. Luckily I got mine in a manual which makes it way more fun. Especially in traffic.
Was checking to see if anyone already commented this lmao wish they didn’t do the cvt but at least Honda makes good ones. I’m jealous you got the manual but I am not a fan of how the hatch looks tbh
I have a Touring but regardless, the infotainment and driver cluster in the new Civic is a truly massive upgrade over the GenX. I also recently had a Mazda CX-9 for a rental and there is no contest between the instrumentation and infotainment controls in that vs the Civic even in full touring trim. Our 2020 Touring CR-V was also more than a match in daily function and intuitiveness compared to the Mazda. I am sure that you will find more and more that you really like Honda. Oh and the vented disk brakes in the front is standard on basically all Hondas for a very long time. They are only solid disk in the rear as most braking in any vehicle is done using the front brakes and not the rear. (Most systems are 70/30 bias)
I absolutely love my 22 civic touring i bought it out the show room floor at Honda Duval last year on June 13, three days before it got released to the public on June 15, 22.... I also have a 2021 civic sport and I love my 22 touring way more I have to admit it
Vented rotors would be nice on my 2016 civic EXL , Brakes get hot and warp them . Also notice the A/c heat shows what temp you have it set on , my 16 is just a guessing game . I have never found where you can set a temp or see a temp you want .
I have the same car in white love it however…they left a few things out , I miss my XM Sirius radio 🙄, no charging ports in the back 🙄, no lights on the visor mirrors but I guess I’ve adjusted lol.
Looking at it as the current owner of an ‘03 coupe LX…and I barely understand the new dash. Think it will last as long as my Sylvie? She has 203k miles on her.
@@TruckLifeProductions I am daily comparing this car with the Camry…my mechanics say anything with a Toyota emblem is a good thing…they work exclusively on foreign cars….sadly I don’t even have the base Camry budget…dream car for all this plus safety for me is the Camry SE AWD but the price new or used even with some miles on it is over the top. Tough car shopping world out there right now…
I’m not positive but I’m like 99% certain that the transmission has a built in safety when you’re in the sport mode and start to use the paddles that it automatically will change back in to auto without you having to change the modes again if you don’t upshift for like 2-3 seconds maybe a little bit more to ensure there is no damage to it for running at such a high rpm for that gear. Other than that a decent video. Love the car but I definitely would have gone with the sonic grey pearl color with a black interior if I was getting one
Thanks for the comment and honestly I’m not sure I’ll have to find out I know it automatically goes back to 1st when you stop in sport mode with the paddles. I might make a short video clip about that. That is a nice color combo as well
Very decent for a N/A 2.0 and since it’s a 7speed that helps with quicker acceleration. I would lean more toward the sport honestly bc the price and the looks plus it’s more of a drivers car
I would look at all the features of the ex and the sport and go to a dealer physically and sit in both experience Botha features and then decide if it’s worth the price difference because the power train is the same but the sport is electronically tuned slightly different because of its sport option when gearing.
I absolutely agree there is nothing like a true manual, but when it comes to paddle shifters I prefer to have them rather than having to bump the shifter up or down in the automatic(manual mode) cars with the console shifter
@@TruckLifeProductions yeah your right on that. But then again when you drive manual you gotta take your hand off of wheel lol. Nothing like taking the s2000 on the tail of the dragon
Legally I'm allowed an opinion so the following is my opinion. I had to get rid of my civic before it killed me. Due to computer error the electric parking brake locked up my rear tires while I was driving it. My civic had 16,000 miles on it. Honda techs said they couldn't fix it. Honda customer service said it was fixed and refused to do anything for me so I had to get rid of the car to get rid of this problem. I'm thankful for TH-cam so I can warn people about Honda. It cost me a lot

Usually ventilated rotors with have holes drilled in them as well as groves cut into them as well. Thanks for the comment and support

Get some sport wheels and throw them on there and you wouldn’t be able to tell much difference

I'm afraid it only has one gear. Just like a go cart. It's a CVT
Do you hate the sluggish acceleration?
Nice video, I just bought a white one about 2 weeks ago.

Thanks!! Enjoy yours as well

Sounds like it is the same system that is on the Toyota Corolla hatchback. I like having them!
hey was wondering what tire size do you have on the f150 and does it have a leveling kit??
265/75r16 and no it’s stock suspension
looks like a great car !
Do you put regular gas in yours or premium ?
Regular
How's the acceleration? I'm deciding between a Sport, and EX trim.
Very decent for a N/A 2.0 and since it’s a 7speed that helps with quicker acceleration. I would lean more toward the sport honestly bc the price and the looks plus it’s more of a drivers car
@@TruckLifeProductions Both have CVT's.
@@thundergato84 yes both do, but what I mean is with the gearing as a 7speed it can get through the gears quicker than say a 5 or 6speed

Lovely car
Thanks!!
Cool Vid, might get one...
Awesome!
Awesome
I wish the sport came with BSM and Turbo and it woudl be godly. I hate the EX it's a wasted trim
What's the sound system like?
Basic
What about the 8 speakers sound quality.is it any good and basy?
It’s ok and clear not that much bass. I don’t believe it has a sub or amp so that would be a factor
Paddle shifting with a CVT 😂😂😂😂. Honda still makes a 3rd pedal bro nothing like a true manual
