Most owners of two door coupes hardly ever put people (kids or adults) in the back seat. 99% of the time when I see a two door car there are only one or two people inside. As soon as you have a family and kids that need car seats, a four door vehicle of any size and shape becomes much more practical, even necessary. Since the Civic sedan handles and drives much the same as the coupe only the folks who desire the "sporty" look of a coupe will go that route. Nice to know there is an affordable coupe available. The Civic Si with 6-speed manual would be my choice if I wanted a two door car.
I remember how Elantra Coupe was literally just Elantra Sedan with front doors stretched and rear doors removed. I thought that kind of defeated the purpose. Civic Coupe is smaller than Civic Sedan, which is one of the goals, I think.
Very informative and comprehensive review. You pack a lot of information in there in a reasonable amount of time. I appreciate that. I also like how you spoke about and explained the situation with the oil dilution issues. Keep up the good work.
My son and I both have 2020 Civics. His is a Hatchback, but I fell in love with the lines of the Coupé. As a vehicle, it hasn't had a single issue. Not one. From day one I have averaged 36mpg combined. 0-60 still comes in at 7.2 sec. which is normal for the 1.5t. After 65,000 miles it is just a fabulous car. When this car will be done at 100k, we'll be looking at a standard Hybrid ONLY. But we'd prefer AWD. Civic Hybrid, or Corolla Hybrid, or the Prius are looking good, but we have 2 years to go. If you're looking for a used one, l highly recommend it.
4:55 Oil dillution . Well before gdi , di , etc , I always think that turbo was not a good idea for winter because unreachable adequate temperature setting for short trip is common . The combo here ( meanwhile in canada...) for reliability is the base engine & manual tranny even if it drinks more fuel .
I actually really like the wild color. It's interesting and distinctive. I really dislike the stupidly tiny trunk opening. They should have give it a rear hatch instead. It's a nice car and seems good value for the money when you consider the Corolla costs more and is much more of an appliance, though it doesn't have a direct comparison to this 2-door. I'd definitely go with the 2.0L just to avoid any possible long-term problems with the 1.5L turbo. It should be more dependable and longer lasting in the long run.

what...first off, the civic coupe starts just under $22 K versus $27 K for an 86, not sure where you get 10 grand. And come on, you are getting a dedicated RWD sports car platform, not a 2 door variant of a compact FWD commuter car... if you don't care about driving dynamics, yep the Civic is the better choice is more commuter friendly equipment like dynamic cruise control. Grats on your first car! Be happy with your choice but don't be silly about "value"...the 86 has sold hundred of thousands more than what Honda was able to with their S2000..
Hey Alex, has Honda finally figured our how to program their cruise control? My sister used to have a 2015 Civic and the CC was really awful. When going up a hill, the car would slow down about 5 mph, then it would speed up and abruptly stop at the set speed. It wasn't a smooth transition. It was really jerky. My Juke Nismo has a smooth CC and you don't feel it on the highway. I'm just wondering why Honda can't make their CC as smooth as Nissan's.
Love the Civic coupe. Honda apparently didn't get your memo, Alex, that it's supposed to live long. Its cancelled after this year. Hopefully it makes a return for the next generation.
does anybody know whether the pricing for various models at minute 15:48 manufacturer suggest retail prices, which does not include delivery charge and tax yet? or is this price list the full drive off prices of these cars?

I've had it for a little over a year now and I really like it and hasn't given me any problems so far ..I average 38.1 mpgs (which I love) and do scheduled maintenance. ..I know Alex said its probably not an issue but should I be worried about this engine ? I had no idea about this potential engine issue when I got this car...
On 2019 honda civic coupe. Should the LED across the lift gate light up when breaking? Dealership is telling me no, but I believe it is suppose to . Thanks
for those of us living in the northeast warming up is not an option during the winter. more then a few times i would start up run for 2 mins and then drive slowly under 3k for 4 miles to my destination and only then my car is warmed up in the last 1/2 to 1/4 mile.
@@pbentsonable also 143k out of a million is not 'tiny' by any stretch. Add that to the ac compressor failures and transmission issues and like I stated Honda's reliability has gone way down.
Sad that for that price tag there's no power seats so you can't lift the seats up. The Civic is nice but the 'main main' caveat is that if you're quite tall & during long ride the right knee & leg touches the hard side console, my left knee touched the hard plastic of the door handle & makes it super painful. Believe me you get sore & that's why I went for the Accord instead. Even in the Accord in the basic EX & EX-L range you feel the pain but that can be mitigated if you pull the seats all the way to the back as long as your feet can reach the pedals safely. The Civic is nimble & zippy though. If you're stuck with the Civic & feel uncomfortable when you drive with the legs spread, feel the pain just glue a soft sponge by the console. Too many hard plastics around.
Their biggest mistake with that is the driver seat isnt power adjusted. The reason the passenger seat is always manual is for rear access. It shouldn't be punishing the driver Also you completely forgot to mention the specs of the the Si coupe which has 205 horsepower and 192 torque with a 6 speed that gets 28/32/38 mpg
Now that Alex has debunked the 1.5L turbo oil dilution issues, Toyota fanboys now have no argument for their outclassed Corolla vs the clearly superior Civic.
@@kenhoward3512 This 2016 Civic Touring sedan owner whose odometer recently passed 41,000 miles, would strongly disagree with your assessment. You're speaking as a 10th gen Civic owner as well, aren't you White Shadow?
Well that sucks we got a 2018 Honda civic EX-T turbo with 16,000 miles on it. And it's all custom with air ride. We don't drive it that much especially in the winter it hasn't seen snow sense we bought it brand new with 17 miles on it.
Serious question. Why might someone want a coupe over its sedan counterpart? I'm not trying to be dismissive or imply that there are no good reasons. This is not the beginning of an argument. I'm genuinely curious.
Agree, the coupe looks better than the sedan. Not everybody has a bunch kids to haul around. 99% of the time it's just me in my vehicle and I would take a coupe over sedan any day.
if you don't regularly use the backseat, they are smaller. Also depending on the vehicle you will have a larger front seat. I personally hate sedans and honestly wish 2 door SUV's would come back in the mist of this SUV craze as having essentially a reg cab pickup with a fully enclosed rear with emergency second row seats was a great thing at one point
It's so cute in Yellow! I love yellow, I have a yellow bike and when I rode motorcycles a bright yellow Triumph. It just looks like fun and not as boy racer as the Si. An Si for grownups!

Not a rumor. Check later years of Accord at carcomplaints.com starting 2011 model year. I think they make it that way to be safer during rear end collisions but other brands have good safety ratings also figured out how to make the seats comfortable.
I have a 2019 Si Coupe. I’m 52 with lower back issues. I have to use a lumbar wedge, otherwise I would be crippled from the lack of support in these seats.
I'd stay away from any new civic crv or accord with gdi. They are suffering from big problems with oil dilution, ac compressor failures and transmission problems(ones with cvt). Honda's reliability has gone way down in the last few years.
I have a 2019 SI coupe which I love. I am disappointed that there is no power seat. Regardless of whether this is a coupe or not, the driver should have a power seat and immediate seat back release. So that is a fail on the part of the coupe. I had this in my 2016 Camaro RS. The Civic should have it too.
Civic Coupes have always been noisier that the Sedans. They seem to have less insulation in the rear of the car. It's nice they're still offering a stick shift.
@@ALMX5DP Nowadays, modern tires + electronic safety features (like traction control) make just about any rear wheel drive vehicle perfectably driveable in the winter. The main reasons many vehicles are front wheel drive are packaging/space efficiency and cost.
Herp McDerp I don’t think I’d use the term “perfectly.” I have winter tires on my 2wd truck and Focus ST. Truck does the job, but is trounced by the Focus in terms of drive ability on slippery surfaces even though the truck has studded tires and the Focus just has Blizzaks.
@@ALMX5DP Maybe I should have worded that better.. by "perfectly driveable" I meant it's driveable without getting into an accident - unless you drive like an idiot. A front wheel drive car is always easier to drive in adverse weather but that doesn't mean you can't drive a rear wheel drive car in winter. Especially a modern one with good tires. That's all I meant. Your Focus vs Truck comparison doesn't say much, because you don't mention any details (age of vehicles and tires, features, etc.). Plus, a truck is a special case, because you have very little weight on the rear axle (unless you haul stuff in the bed) and that's what makes it a little more tricky. That being said, a modern truck with good winter tires, electronic stability and traction control and some weight in the bed is not THAT hard to drive in winter.
@@kgspvgsp7569 I've been driving in snowy conditions for many years, thank you very much. That includes in a rear wheel drive BMW Seven-series in the Swiss Alps during winter. And that was in the 90s and early 2000s, without electronic safety features or modern technology tires. I've also been to Canada in a rear wheel drive Impala in December. And guess what... I'm still alive (I think). Am I an exceptional driver? Not really. Was it pleasant? Not always. But modern vehicles with stability and traction control + good winter tires drive much better - and that was the point.
Did Honda PAY YOU TO "EXPLAIN AWAY" the GAS BLOW-BY AS ACCEPTABLE ?! -- reasoning that Honda's "1.5 TURBO" DESIGN-DEFECT IS THE OWNER'S FAULT?? (-even with Honda's MASSIVE # of global RECALLS?) Then you CONJECTURE yourself: recommending "get 2.0 engine INSTEAD if you don't want GAS-OIL CONTAMINATION".
Sick of Honda design n sell strategy. They always made the cars look so bad for the first yr model which fail to draw ppl interest n sell. Y they stupidly start so low. Make it looks nice then awesome not bad then fine.
That's bull oil dilution is not okay the gas will sit in the oil until you change the oil this is the guy that would talk you into buying a piece of crap👎 he reminds me of a damn used car salesman
The 2019 Toyota Camry XSE, which is outfitted with the V6 engine, produced 301HP from a naturally aspirated 3.5L v6 (not some bullshit 1.5 turbo) was able to go from 0 to 60 in 5.8 seconds and reach 136 miles per hour when tested. Vs Honda 6.6 seconds. Calm down man, I know Honda paid you and kissed your ass, but don't bullshit us with false figures.

I have a 2019 SI coupe which I love. I am disappointed that there is no power seat. Regardless of whether this is a coupe or not, the driver should have a power seat and immediate seat back release. So that is a fail on the part of the coupe. I had this in my 2016 Camaro RS. The Civic should have it too.
why is this car not avaiable in europe? thats against human rights.. i want it
Civic Coupes have always been noisier that the Sedans. They seem to have less insulation in the rear of the car. It's nice they're still offering a stick shift.
Am I the only person who was afraid her was going to drive off the curb @ some point?
Hmm, looked on Honda.com and couldn't find a "too-ring" model. Is it Canada only?
Top-of-the-line two ring edition?
it look good but i dont like chrome trims on any car i own
Everything should be RWD and two door. Change my mind.
GGW have a family and move to Canada in the winter.
@@ALMX5DP Nowadays, modern tires + electronic safety features (like traction control) make just about any rear wheel drive vehicle perfectably driveable in the winter. The main reasons many vehicles are front wheel drive are packaging/space efficiency and cost.
Herp McDerp I don’t think I’d use the term “perfectly.” I have winter tires on my 2wd truck and Focus ST. Truck does the job, but is trounced by the Focus in terms of drive ability on slippery surfaces even though the truck has studded tires and the Focus just has Blizzaks.
@@ALMX5DP Maybe I should have worded that better.. by "perfectly driveable" I meant it's driveable without getting into an accident - unless you drive like an idiot. A front wheel drive car is always easier to drive in adverse weather but that doesn't mean you can't drive a rear wheel drive car in winter. Especially a modern one with good tires. That's all I meant. Your Focus vs Truck comparison doesn't say much, because you don't mention any details (age of vehicles and tires, features, etc.). Plus, a truck is a special case, because you have very little weight on the rear axle (unless you haul stuff in the bed) and that's what makes it a little more tricky. That being said, a modern truck with good winter tires, electronic stability and traction control and some weight in the bed is not THAT hard to drive in winter.
@@kgspvgsp7569 I've been driving in snowy conditions for many years, thank you very much. That includes in a rear wheel drive BMW Seven-series in the Swiss Alps during winter. And that was in the 90s and early 2000s, without electronic safety features or modern technology tires. I've also been to Canada in a rear wheel drive Impala in December. And guess what... I'm still alive (I think). Am I an exceptional driver? Not really. Was it pleasant? Not always. But modern vehicles with stability and traction control + good winter tires drive much better - and that was the point.
Rip civic coupe
Did Honda PAY YOU TO "EXPLAIN AWAY" the GAS BLOW-BY AS ACCEPTABLE ?! -- reasoning that Honda's "1.5 TURBO" DESIGN-DEFECT IS THE OWNER'S FAULT?? (-even with Honda's MASSIVE # of global RECALLS?)
Then you CONJECTURE yourself: recommending "get 2.0 engine INSTEAD if you don't want GAS-OIL CONTAMINATION".
Sick of Honda design n sell strategy. They always made the cars look so bad for the first yr model which fail to draw ppl interest n sell. Y they stupidly start so low. Make it looks nice then awesome not bad then fine.
Not for long...
If i buy it..right away get rid of the front and back fascia.
That's bull oil dilution is not okay the gas will sit in the oil until you change the oil this is the guy that would talk you into buying a piece of crap👎 he reminds me of a damn used car salesman
Anybody got a Jay Leno vibe?
The 2019 Toyota Camry XSE, which is outfitted with the V6 engine, produced 301HP from a naturally aspirated 3.5L v6 (not some bullshit 1.5 turbo) was able to go from 0 to 60 in 5.8 seconds and reach 136 miles per hour when tested. Vs Honda 6.6 seconds. Calm down man, I know Honda paid you and kissed your ass, but don't bullshit us with false figures.
SUN Roof
RIP
Miata?
That’s a roadster
People grow up and realize that four doors make life easier
when can we expect the 2020 CRV review as I just got notification from Honda that its now available at my local dealership.
Jesus loves you all so much :)
175hp, 6.8 seconds 0-60 and quarter mile at 15.2. In other words, why does this coupe even exist? It's an irony for it's class.
can I have this one please? lol
Power seats are never an advantage. It's like an electric soft top vs mx5 soft top. Mx5 wins everytime.
Honda quality is decreasing, AC problem
this new gen of honda is so ugly
That is one ugly color.
Honda headlights sucks.
No AWD, no care...........hard pass. Next plz!
100% hate the way this car looks.
awful!
Useless car. Get a real sport car if you want a coupe like a Toyota 86
he completely forgot to mention the Si coupe which is a fine sports car
You didn't even watch the video, did you?
Dude, this isn't a sports car.
not all coupes are sports cars, and not all sports cars are coupes. try to keep up.
@@ryanlittleton5615 the civic has always been a sports car. Hot hatches are a type of sports car. Just because it's not an exotic luxury sports car does not mean its not a sports car
