Compare


Performance
2025 Honda Civic
A 158-hp standard engine provides punchy performance, with an available 180-hp turbocharged option for those who want more. Confident handling and smooth CVT tuning keep it fun and efficient.

132-hp standard engine feels underpowered on highways. Higher trims improve this, but still don't match the Civic's overall drive feel.
Interior Comfort
2025 Honda Civic
