#Honda is a brand that usually gets things right. That consistency was questioned back in 2012 when the 9th generation #HondaCivic was unveiled with a cheap interior, dull handling, and a bland overall look. Thankfully, Honda rectified the #Civic extensively in 2016 with the 10th generation, introducing a new #turbo engine, class leading acceleration & fuel efficiency, and some really sharp handling to boot. It instantly became the best compact car in the segment but with new entires flooding the market, will the small changes made for the 2019 Civic be enough to keep it the best in the class? - ยานยนต์และพาหนะ
You don’t need a touch up paint pen. You just need a highlighter
lmao!
😎😎😎😎😈😈😈😈😈😈🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
One thing for sure this car wont get lost in the parking lot, man thats one bright ass color
If I hear Sofyan mention America's insatiable appetite for crossovers or SUVs as part of the intro one more time... I'm gonna rip off my own arms
Lol
elitepilot091 but it’s true........
the SUV/crossover crazy is out of control. I can't wait till gas prices go up and people stop buying them. They drive bad and they're ugly.
Can I have them? I don't have any, I'm typing with my buttcheeks...
🍑📱
Hahaha
It's good to see some color on the road.
Gordon Hollis
You have good taste, bro. Nice color. Stands out great.
I have a silver car and I’m kind of offended
@@dillonm6777 Don't be offended. It's a known fact that a Honda Civic is often seen in some of the most dull and drab colors for a car. At least the vivid "Highlighter Yellow" of this particular Honda Civic helps the driver stand out from the crowd instead of blending in. An added bonus of a bright color like this is that you will never have any trouble spotting your Honda Civic in a parking lot ever again.
I have a '16 energy green touring coupe and I'm sooo tempted to sell it to get the tonic yellow Si
Does it glow in the dark?🤔
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
Seriously though, this color should give you an insurance discount.. It's frigging hard to miss!
@@bliglum 💯💯
bliglum Just paint some reflective stripes on it and it will be a safety car. Lol. Like all the vest you see workers wearing now.
Thanks for a good laugh 🖐.
Owner perspective: the head unit is fine. It drives way more expensive than it is. The interior definitely lacks on storage space, even with the big center console because the sliding cup holders take up so much of that space. The car is quick, handling blows me away, fuel economy is great even with the turbo. I got 43 mpg on an 800 mile trip with lots of hills at around 70-80 mph, and average 32-35 each tank, mostly suburban driving. I have the hatchback and would recommend it because it blacks out all of the chrome and plastic trim, and the trunk space is always useful. I bought it thinking that it was kind of ugly but it has 3000% grown on me.
Yes! Finally, I’ve been waiting for this for so long. Thank u Sofyan and his team
I think he is the only one in his team haha
He's got others. You just don't see them. I think it is 2 others.
👌
Pe Pe hi cousin
A driving Tennis ball - amazing what honda can do :D
DxCBuG 😂😂😂😂😂👌🏻
they have them in Destroyer grey too////destroyer grey with sunlight on it is two toned greyish teal
I still like my '16 Touring sedan. I replaced the OEM 215s with 225s and my mileage has dropped a little, but still gets 38-40 mpg on mostly highway driving. The performance is surprisingly good and will definitely get out of it's own way. I find the safety tech WAY too aggressive and turned off lane keeping assist and collision mitigation, as it almost got me into a wreck vs preventing. Good value overall. Thanks for the updated review.
Honda Pro Jason's Type R is clean.
@Tuco Salamanca A 2002 Type R
Tuco Salamanca maybe in another 10 years
Tuco Salamanca no doubt! I follow him on ig and I often wonder when that guy ever manages to go home or get a night of sleep. True workhorse.
Can’t beat that paint to sample OEM Yellow
He is compensated well
2019 Honda Civic “go ahead and mark in your text book” edition
The color is called "Starving for Attention".
Rob L. "I have awful taste terrible income but look at me anyway.."
My Honda CBR300R 2016 is the same color.
@@_baller what does someone's income have to do with the car or color?🤦♂️
Nate Culp nobody with good money gets a Civic...they just dont
@@_baller umm.....wrong ppl that dont give a shit about a status symbol get a civic or ppl that don't live beyond their means and are actually smart with their money
From Countach to Civic.... Sofyan reviews are always on point!!
Another great video. If I could make one request ... would it be possible for you, when comparing a new gen, to an old, to use a split screen to see & compare both at the same time?
Regardless, you do an exceptional job.
Great idea. I'd love this as well.
Had a 6 speed manual '15 Civic Si Coupe. Loved it. I'm sure this generation won't disappoint.
I have the black 2018 model and it's such a beautiful car. I love it. Mine is standard however. I liked the 4 doors better beforehand but the coupes really grew on me after I got mine. I don't regret buying the car, that's for sure. Expensive but so worth it. I've always liked Honda Civics and I'm beyond happy with this one.
This looks so much better with the blacked out grill. Wow. I actualky really like the coupe style now. Rear is so mich better with the toned down honeycomb fake grill. Reminds me of a CRX silhouette. Definetly my choice in this segment. Even over the expensive Mazda 3. IRS for the win
Not.
I like this new Tonic Yellow but... I loved the Energy Green colour!
I think the coupe is the best looking Civic right now, the taillights are so awesome and they really look great at night!
That being said I owned a 2016 Honda Civic EX-T, I live in Canada so I had oil dilution, I was in and out of the dealer constantly that winter and they couldn't figure it out. I got rid of it before the issue was made public and saved myself from the hit the resale value took. I never thought I would have to say that about a new Honda, I was very disappointed so I got a 2017 Mazda 6, and it's way more reliable. I hope they fixed the issues for 2019+.
Good points. I never experienced the dilution issue in mine (knock on wood) but it is something I worry about. Very surprised Honda would have such a huge mistake in one of their most widely used engines.
There's a mechanic TH-camr called Scottie kilmer channel, he explained the issue with the oil dilution in modern cars, is not just Honda!! I recommend check his video out
@@caglioso It's more likely to happen during short trips where the engine doesn't get to fully warm up, and especially in cold climates, like Canada half the year. If it really just is a tuning issue great but still foolish, Canada is one of the biggest Honda Civic markets. It's been Canada's #1 selling car for 20 years in a row. If you live in a city you can't go a day without seeing multiple Honda Civics. Honda needs to remember their roots and refocus on quality and reliability. They need to do better for their customers. I hope yours turns out to be traditional, reliable Honda.
The new Mazda kills the Civic. Oh, and I own a Civic. Lol
I had a Triumph motorcycle in that yellow I loved it! and I got noticeably less drivers pulling up in front of me.
YES IT IS! i have one and i love it. i hope they make it even better in the future
1969 : We gonna have flying cars by 2010.
2019 : Still talking about the CiViC
I had a 1978 Honda Civic CVCC in the same yellow, it was a nice car.
Mine was the green they don't make anymore
I wish they would bring back the retro colours with the ev lineup
Love the colour and coupe body which we don’t get in Australia unfortunately- thorough and insightful review :)
I love that highlighter yellow! Stick and turbo and I'm sold. Plus, that yellow type r is killer! Model 3, Fusion Hybrid and Pacifica Hybrid I saw on the highway lol. Lots of hybrids.
I hope automakers don't stop making their own navigation systems. When your phone starts glitching and going out of service like my phone does or when you're just in an area with bad service, you won't have navigation at all and I like car navigation voices better than apple or google voices.
Love these bright colors on cars, hope they keep doing this
Google maps caches map data in real time so you don't lose it if your service drops...it also allows you to download map data ahead of time if you know where you're going.
Ah well I usually use Waze and it instantly stops navigating when my phone randomly decides to go out of service
The 6 speed manual transmission is the best bet.
BET
Because CVTs are garbage.
It feels great but they really should have a reverse lockout, it's so easy to push it into reverse when going into 6th if you aren't careful. And dont start with that "learn to drive manual" bullshit, I've been driving a 2003 civic 5 speed for 10 years. Almost every manufacturer that makes a manual these days has a reverse lockout EXCEPT Honda.
james baker I’m not sure which model you have (I’m assuming one of the base models), but my Si not only has a reverse lockout but it also won’t let you into 1st gear if you’re going above a certain speed. I assumed there would be a lockout on all trim levels
@@jaymingles same here. My 18 hatchback sport will not go into rewind while going down the road.
Absolutely love my HB Sport Touring!
I have a 2019 civic sport coup. It's got great economics, cheap gas, insurace, taxes, neat tech, and should last a very long time. It's also very fun to drive a small 2D coup....however the sound system is complete junk. I mean wow! It's depressing how bad it really is I like the car but the radio is sad.
My friends always drooling over an si this color at a local dealer..cant lie its a good looking car especially in this color
Makes one hell of a statement.
yes. this color should only be offered on the Si trim. For some reason it works well with the Si.
I love my civic hatchback but the coupe looks great!
Thanks for another good review budd.
I know a lot of people hate the color but I love it especially with the dark accents, it gives it a balanced look.
14:27 Casual Tesla in the background
Also, idk about those fuel economy numbers. My friend has a 1.5T manual and has been averaging 39MPG for the past 10,000 miles.
Perhaps your friend drives in highway on cruise control
james Gand nope
Looks beautiful hopefully all the 2020’s look like this
When the intro music came on I forgot I was watching redline and thought subaruwrxfan was playing
I love that color. I love driving cars with obnoxious colors.
Expected
Love the color, love the coupe . I bought the coupe Si 2 months ago, yup, in the tonic yellow !!
I also bought this car 6 months ago but I want to add the spoiler on it idk if that’s possible or not
Wow, that color. I remember wanting to paint my first car, a 1991 MR2 (non turbo), this exact color back in school around the year 2000... Haha! So crazy, "Way back when I was kid in school around the year 2000"... Living in the future y'all.
Hey Sofyan, great review. Im really liking these new civics, just wondering do you think you will be able to review the new 2020 Civic SI Sedan? Definently liking how that car is looking, but would love an in depth review if you got a chance.
You need compare with Jetta GLI or Golf GTI. I preferred the Mazda 3 is so beautiful. Almost German sense interior
I came to find out if the glove box is lined with felt and if it’s damped...
I just brought black 2016 Honda Civic EX-T last week, I love it!! Even watch the videos how to remote start and roll down the windows without entering the car. Nice car!! Honda #1, for those who can’t afford a Tesla.
@Redline_Reviews, how would you say this Honda compares to the 2019 KIA Optima SXL Turbo? Or is it difficult to compare Coupés to 4 four sedans?
You're right. I clocked in 6.72 to 6.75 secs for 0-60 in my 2018 ex-t coupe cvt. Honda's definitely underrating power output
JStream PC I have a cold air intake and I use 93 premium
And I def hit low 6 seconds for 0-60. Especially when it’s cold out
My dream car I’ve been waiting for this review from I saw it on your instagram page
Dream car wtf
craig ferguson LMFAO WHAT TYPE OF DREAM CAR IS THIS
How's the sound quality of the stereo? Love your channel!
Mic going in and out Great Vid and Review
Gloss black, matte black, and chrome exterior trim all on the same car... get it together Honda
That's High Visibility Work Vest green.
Only Sofyan can make a 22min+ video of a Civic entertaining.
Great reviewer. Im not a Honda fan but a fan of the channel.
You always have the best introductions!
Man, I miss the energy green. I would've liked the Civic Si Coupe in that color. Oh well, maybe I can get one used.
About remote starting, I tried on a rented coupe Accord 17, what a bless on heat summers days.
My only complaint was about how long and heavy was the doors. But it’s coupe and should be longer than sedan.
I'm addicted to your reviews
THE BEST AUTOMOTIVE REVIEWS ON THE PLANET. You...are the benchmark sir. And in this segment, so is the CIVIC.
Been watching your reviews for years. I was serious when I said that none compare to yours. Razor focused and the straight truth. BTW...I'm a Nissan guy but was pissed when they told you no room for you at the Altima Presser. Sorry to say that Nissan (like their cars lately) are just a step or two disconnected from achieving greatness...why is this. Please let me know if you have any insight on this.... stay true to your style because you are one of the great auto journalists...I'd love to se a once monthly or maybe quarterly show where you cut loose and let go. Maybe a roadtrip extended review? Youd do great!
This car looks like my notebook when I study before finals.
I like the coupé the best and I like this color too. I wish the coupé model had a lift back though. Overall great car, especially with a stick!
Wow cool video, thanks for sharing!
Put a V6 is this thing, get it with a 6sp manual, maybe a LSD. Bring back the accord coupe lol
Bosco Han except it’s one size smaller and it won’t sell
@3:54
“About inch shorter than the Civic coupe”!
This is the Civic, or maybe you meant the previous coupe?
I saw this in person very nice shade and pearly green
I think Honda's doing a phenomenal job with their lineup now this color in particular I can honestly say I wouldn't be able to Stand looking at on a day-to-day basis .This is not an everyday drivers dream color but is a dream car lol.
I would love to see a Honda Civic -AWD
Hey when are you reviewing the new 3 series? ??!!
willcme1 This summer! BMW is loaning us that car in early July.
You should do a video on the best vehicle overall in each class in your opinion. Thanks
I think the main reason why the 2019 Civic kept the older head unit as opposed to the newest one because as the climate control is buried into the infotainment, the temperature is only seen from the infotainment which would be hard to put in the newest one. Although the Civic could just put exactly the same infotainment layout as the Insight
I wonder if Honda has stepped up their quality since the 8th Gen civic. My wife’s 2009 which we bought brand new has been junk. The engine and drive train have been flawless but everything else is falling apart in the inside, the front end components fail prematurely, multiple AC problems, and the paint has faded before a lot of older vehicles I’ve owned.
I have almost 50k miles on a '16, the only thing showing wear is the grey plastic next to the parking brake switch. I guess I was careless about finger oils on it and the grey paint wore off a little
I didn’t know Hi-Liter paint cars for Honda. 🤔
the yellow-green color is such a fun pop of hue! I love it...but it couldn't be my only car. Great if u have extra money to spend on fun colors for a car!
love ur videos
Even though I am a Honda fanboy, the new Mazda 3 is so impressive I just can't choose the Civic over the mazda 3. Both are good cars though.
The has a really small trunck and compared to the civic the Mazda is pretty slow
@@ArtiLev22 But the Mazda has a far nicer interior, the exterior looks way better especially those ugly rear taillights of the Civic, has a traditional automatic instead of the CVT for people too lazy to shift their own gears, has All wheel drive which the Civic doesn't, and I think I heard that the Mazda 3 may get another engine choice that is faster than the current one. Both are great cars overall though.
The new Mazda 3 is on another level compared to the civic!! Got to love the fake vents and cheap plastic everywhere on the civic.
The Civic Coupe looks the best out of the Sedan and Hatchback Civic. Very sleek looking.
great review and great color
I've seen that color in person. It reminds me of a high visibility vest. Blue collar is cool right now.
Such a nice car omg
This thing looks like a yellow highlighter thanks to that colour
Love it how the evaluation vehicle has HomeLink on rearview mirror, but it's not available on 2019 specs for US models.
Shout out to Honda Pro Jason’s yellow FK8 Type R. The only yellow FK8 on the road as of now 💪🏽
I think the new Mazda 3 is the best as far as materials and design, Honda only sells so many because of their long history in the USA.
Tyler Ryce I completely agree with you. Mazda 3 and VW Golf are way better. There is nothing particularly innovative or special about this car. I don’t get it.
Mazda 3 is ugly as fuck
clash clans right.....because the Civic is a masterpiece in engineering and design
Well yeah, their long history of GOOD cars. American cars have a long history of cars in the USA but they seem to struggle to keep up and just end up quiting
Honda and Mazda entered the US market in the same year: 1970.
Best Small car? Once upon a time yes, the modern Civic is HUUUUUGE.
lol everything getting huge-r
Thats because ppl are fatter now. Lol
I'm definitely getting me one.. Either the coupe touring or the hatchback touring 👌🏽
@Gary Basra both seem stylish
I have a 2019 Civic sedan and it is awesome! Honda cars are the best, they simply are!
I wish someone could let us know if the engine oil problem is resolved and how?
Wasnt really a problem... People are just paranoid.
@@diegoeleazar9154 then why the Honda 1.5t TSB for North America and recall for China?
Norm T Because the Chinese government is extremely anal about emissions. However, they are nowhere as anal when it comes to safety. Usually when cars get recalled for safety issues in North America the exact same cars don’t even get tsbs in China.
The crv was the promblem child but I think they fixed this 6 months in on the 2018.
They have a software update. Honestly, I still would not buy the current Honda turbo engine myself.
Funny thing is the compactness of this civic Is bigger than the midsize accord of like the early 2000s.
Have you seen the new Accord. It's longer then a Toyota 4runner. Massive but very refine vehicle.
@@LightningFangful yes the accord is now enormous.
@@truckercowboyed2638 So is the Civic
@@DS..69 yes true a 2005 civic is much smaller.
I love that color Honda. 😍 That’s Yellow-Green💛💚
Love this color. Same as my Arai helmet! I may have to look at this one. If only the Si sedan was offered in Tonic.
If your getting a Coupe, It’s better to get the Si version.
Swaggy Jay the si’s transmission is terrible
chriscordero14 test drove one, it was like cutting through dry rotted rubber with a spoon.
Gordon Hollis Not really? I drive a Veloster N.
NO3- Si transmission is terrible? Lol stupid troll
“Trunk hinges that crush your cargo..” 😂🤣😂🤣
😂😂
Good videos. Can u list 0-60 & 1/4 mile times in description?
Came to see if it has a pano sunroof. Probably the most important feature on a car besides a felt lined and damped glovebox.
I wish he reviewed the Sport 6mt instead of the Touring. TBH, i prefer the base K20 over their turbo
I just bought one a month ago. I'm obsessed with it. I love it a lot. You can ask me any questions if you want.
Billy Norris what kind of mpg you get with it? Also you have anything done to it?
@@scraps0233 just tinted the windows. I keep the Eco mode off. I get an average of 29 mpg. It's the 2.0L naturally aspirated.
@Billy Norris ever thought about tuning it with k tuner? I also found that having to work to get power is more rewarding than having it down low and losing up top power.
@@scraps0233 interesting. Ummm...I'd assume I'd lose out on gas mileage. Like I said, it's already not great. If I wanted a race car I would have gotten an si. I'm working 2 jobs out of this car.
the front is ok, the rear is “were they drunk at the time?”
About rear spoiler, I wish Honda add a rear spoiler at top of back window from inside, as in TLX, so high car like big trucks could see it easily.
Oh my god, they added an actual volume knob! It has physical buttons on the radio too!
Civic has always been king in my heart. Best car in the world! 💛
Hell yeah Civic’s are the best small cars
I see so many Honda Civics on the road every where I go lol. I see why 😍😍
Greta video!!! What's the name of that song in the beginning?
