Under the hood is a built proof 2.0L inline-4 paired paired with an all new hybrid system. Is the 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid Sport Touring the BEST compact sedan ever built?

Hey Joe, Chinese fan here. Keep up the amazing work! Your videos helped me choose my dream car.
Hey Joe I tried buying one of these but all my socal dealerships wanted 2k over sticker so I just ended up buying a 2025 Hyundai Elantra N-Line. Great review!
Oh wow that is crazy! Congrats on your new Elantra N-Line
@@RaitisRidesThanks! I watched your review you did awhile ago on one and was sold. Thanks for all the reviews you do! You are one of the best.
@@DavidGotelli710 I currently have a Kia I hope you don’t regret your purchase as much as I hate mine if Toyota had been able to supply me the parts to repair my 2020 Camry XSE ID STILL ON THAT BUT I WAITED A YEAR FOR THE PARTS TO GET HERE BUT THEY NEVER CAME SO I GAVE THEM THE CAR BACK SINCE I COULDNT FIND A DEALERSHIP THAT WOULD TRADE IT IN FOR ME EITHER
@@darrengodbee3397what was your mileage on your Toyota?
@darrengodbee3397 i had a 2021 n line and have a 24. If he octane learns it he'll be fine
Took one for a rip they are quick. 6.2sec i got it going. Build quality is 10/10. Would 100% buy this car
Real talk, Raiti. As a Honda fan and fanatic, I hate that they cheaped out on adding vents to the rear of civic. It is a beautiful machine and yes, as a 9th gen accord driver, I will never get the 11th gen accord. I prefer the civic over the accord now. I hope Honda listens and brings back vents and connectivity to the rear and redesign the accord. They did it on the CRV’s
Honda civic all the way!!
Love the Civic hatchback hybrid version , the perfect swiss army knife , do everything type car ,
I really like those wheels. They even look a lot better than most aftermarket ones.
Hi Joe, like everything on the car except the front end. It looks someone that just got braces and it pushed their lips out. I’d still buy it though.
Loving the wheels ! I was picturing them on your Civic 🤔
Great “ little” sedan 👍
They are nice Tom but I just couldn't do it!
Nice video keep up the great work Joe
50 mpg is wild
I really love that Civic hybrid now yes the back seats lack in amenities like a Genesis gv80 but keep in mind this is a lot cheaper than the apostles to the luxury cars.
You are right it is less expensive but this is the 21st century.
@@RaitisRides yes I agree with you Joe I feel like for Honda that is where they kind of went wrong because comparing it to the apostles to the luxury cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars they have more amenities for the back then compact cars
@@LuisUrbieta Very good points Luis!
@@RaitisRides yeah I feel like for being a compact car they should give you more amenities comparing it to the disciples of luxury that cost way more like a Rolls-Royce
Super J ~ put some premium in your garage of monster muscle cars, one day I'll come visit ya & we can go cruising = yay. another S Tier report from my favorite auto channel, thanks Joe for being awesome.
@@SpringfieldTony i definitely second that here Joe is amazing
Always great reviews!
Joe there is a recall and STOP SALE in effect for certain Civics because of high pressure fuel pump failure. Don't know if this model is affected but I tried buying a new Civic Sport today and they wouldn't sell me the car. I was pretty disappointed.
they’ll just have to perform the recall first and then they can sell it to you
wow I love that color! I’ve never seen that before the gold sparkle on the grey
Great review Joe.
So far I’m loving it I’d never spend what a Tesla cost for a Tesla but I love those new wheels it should have had a pano roof so that’s a big zonk
Thanks for your honest thoughts on this one.
A new Tesla Model 3 is $42,400. This Civic hybrid is $34k. If you splurge a little you get full electric with Tesla. And let's be honest, there's something exciting about being in a Tesla compared to a Honda.
@@Pohonesty I wouldn’t have a fully electric car even if it were free I’d still buy a gas fueled car the first time any one turned my car off I’d be wanted for murder so it’s much safer for me to have a car that’s gas fueled
@@Pohonestynah Tesla ain’t proven. People have Hondas from the 90s still running strong. Tesla is good but can’t be considered even great yet with that they’re still just getting a grasp on better quality control. Plus hybrid is currently the best today. Electric is still not there yet and soulless driving with no feedback vs a gas variant vehicle
These really are great cars. All trim levels are well equipped and look fantastic. Can't beat the truly impressive balance with fuel economy/performance they achieved here.
I like the black trim under the headlights rather than body colored. I just think it looks little better and more contrasting!
Totally understandable Bobby!
@@bobbyjones2112 i definitely agree
Amazing MPG. At 50 MPG, if you are paying 25 cents/Kwhr, the fuel cost of this Honda is almost as low as an EV. The hybrids have gained so much market share recently, and i believe that the sales increase in hybrids is higher than pure EV's this year.
Would you take this or a similar priced Camry?
I am going with this Civic Toby!
@@RaitisRides Joe, I am curious, why would you pick the Civic hybrid over the Camry hybrid?
@@Oregoncoast30well, it handles better, looks better (subjective), smoother, driving inputs feel better. The camry will beat it in highway efficiency and having more optional features though. Can’t go wrong with wither. They’re both the best in class
Could you start talking about the rear door materials too? A lot are hard touch. $33k is a lot for a Civic. That's what I paid for my 23' Tucson SEL convenience
Civic Hybrid for the win!
DO one for Civic Hatch Sport Touring!
Love the review, Joe hope you and Laurie and the team had an awesome weekend, have a good upcoming week guys and God bless and keep the great reviews coming. My friend of mine just bought a new Accord a couple weeks ago at least it not the hybrid one the regular one gotta check out in person, I’ve never seen this generation get in person and Civic. I wanna check out the Civic even more so.
I test drove one and was very surprised at how good it was. Not that I would buy one. I just wanted to see what the new hybrid powertrain feels like because the upcoming Honda Prelude will be a hybrid.
Over 2 million were just recalled
The Honda Civic Hybrid is a great choice if you're looking for a fuel-efficient vehicle! It combines a gasoline engine with an electric motor, which helps save on gas while reducing emissions.
wow never knew you dont have to plug in a hybrid. Thanks Raiti.
You can with some, but they normally have a limited range, and when the battery is flat, you are lugging around a lot of dead weight. This means that on any longer journey, once the battery is out of charge, the fuel consumption is not very good. Plug-in hybrids are great if you make short journeys and have access to home charging, but for most people, a self-charging hybrid like this makes more sense.
Joe you're awesome
Thanks for saying that George!
Weird the rear bumper doesn’t have the sporty rear diffuser with the exhaust showing. Not that tucked in look it has now.
She is a sweet little ride for all folks ! Awesome review Joe 👍🏼 And as usual, excellent camera work 👏
I honestly have mixed feeling with this car. Not bad but not great.
That is okay Omar!
Thanks for another great review Joe! You are the best. Could you share with us the other reasons why you prefer the civic over the accord? I am looking at both and leaning toward the accord for greater quiet and refinement. Thank you.
I have been thinking about buying honda civic hybrid since before they announce it but now I'm kind of hesitant due to the recalls steering lack of grease and now fuel pump.
Hondas can be boring but they are absolutely dependable.
I think I'm gonna get the GTR that you reviewed lol. Trade mine in for that last blue one
Hey, if the Tesla model 3 is only 8 grand more, what would you realistically go with.
No lumbar support?
“Hey, let’s remove the driver seatback pocket” Such a weird thing to cut costs on, especially on the “top trim” 😂😂
This will be the norm for all cars going forward. It does save them costs, but it also keeps the driver less distracted, since people fidgeting on the back of driver’s seat can be annoying.
heck yeah! Obviously!
That is so great to hear Jonathan that you are digging this Civic Hybrid!
@@RaitisRides I like the hatchback better because of it's rear design!
Canada gets the heated steering wheel and rear heated seats and USB ports. Sad to see no rear ventilation or panoramic sunroof like EUDM or Asian market.
Civic is so good they made the accord irrelevant
didn't he already do a review on this
The only thing touring about this trim is the sweaty swamp a$$ the rear passengers get for not having rear center console ac vents 😂
No reason this should have low profile tires especially for a touring addition great idea the tire size where its more easy to get flats with the touring option who comes up with these choices?
Is the opposite of a zonk a badonkadonk?
Awesome look at the updated hybrid Civic.
Not the king. This is now a class of its own. What will compete with it. Not a current Corolla. Maybe the Accord. I guess a new Camry. Actually not a bad idea they cost about the same.
Hey Joe, When are you and Lori going to have your next Q & A Live session? it's been way to long!!
We are actually doing one this coming Tuesday @ 8:00PM ET
Yay!! I will be there!!
The system is decent but yes, the Honda back-up cameras are way outdated and lack quality.
I just don't know why they can not upgrade that!
It’s nice it has 3 angles. Does the Corolla have a better camera quality or about the same?
@@InvestWithAlex It's a tad better
fam you can’t be insulting the m3 when i just sold my 2015 civic and got a 2024 m3 . why are you doing this to me now
A steam engine is better than a Tesla!
This for me 😅
Much better than the ugly accord.
That title belongs to the refreshed Model 3 LR or Performance
Tell me the pricing on those and then we can talk.
I actually bought this same one yesterday. Urban grey sport touring. It’s my daily
Oh wow this is wonderful!
Wouldn't take a camry or the civic. Give me a k4 or k5.Tilly
Everyone has their favorites!
FIRST!!!!
Thanks for your dedication!
I have 2007 civic 4 door lx with only 140000 miles I definitely going to get this civic but in hatchback
Not sure why you keep bringing up Tesla..... A Hybrid buyer is not likely going to cross shop a pure EV..... The competitors are other Hybrids
Agree 100%. The Tesla model 3 is ugly it looks like a deformed chicken egg especially in white. The Tesla Model 3 interior fit and finish is substandard for the price. Eventhough Tesla's technology features are much more advanced than the Civi Sport Touring Hybrid, I would much rather have the Civic Sport Touring Hybrid. I believe that the Civic will outlast the Tesla in the long run. 👍
