Honda Civic 2021 review: should you buy one over the new VW Golf?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 14 авг 2024
- When the current, tenth-generation Honda Civic launched in 2015 it raised a few eyebrows thanks to its bold looks. While sporting a saloon silhouette, it's actually a hatchback like the Civics that came before it (in the UK, at least). It was also lightly revised in 2020, complete with gloss black trim around the front bumper and slightly more aggressive looks.
Now in its sixth year the Civic is starting to look a little big long in the tooth and we know there's a new version just around the corner. With that in mind, is there any reason to buy a Honda Civic in 2021? Can it complete against rivals such as the Volkswagen Golf Mk8 and Skoda Octavia?

Fair, and good, review (Civic owner here!). Adaptive cruise is standard and great to use, big boot genius load cover. So well specced and still good value. Apple /android is default. Shame all that work for so few views. Subscribed.
Love the shape and feel of the civic in 2022,that much infact I've just bought one,in black
No cooking model Honda has ever pulled on my heartstrings (like even a boggo fiesta does). I respect, but don't yearn. Top review, this channel is full of honesty, thanks.
Over Golf?? Anytime Honda
I know! VAG stuff is rhubarb👎🏼. Not in the same league as Honda or Toyota.
I bought brand new a 2019 SE model with the 1 ltr engine and its absolutely brilliant.. I really love the car
How is it for accelerating and overtaking?
6:38 Or just buy another USB cable for like 10 euro so you can keep that one in the car. :D Why even mention that, I have no idea.
Very underrated channel. You deserve far more views and subscribers! High quality review, thank you for sharing. 😁
I agree. A fine, balanced review.
Anyone who reviews this car who says the Golf is better doesnt know anything about cars. The Golf of the same age rides and handles worse than the Civic 10. Is noisier and has barely any of the safety equipment for the price of the Civic. Maybe, again for people who actually know nothing about cars, the DSG on the Golf is better than the Civic CVT. Not one of the cars you mentioned drives better than any Civic 10 with a manual gearbox.
A negative review by the reviewer, when you are so anti on a personal basis, why not just say you don’t like it or at best just give it a it miss! Review a lambo if you are unable to assimilate to the market sector for this type of vehicle - just saying😳
Yeah the negatives on the CVT were misleading; it's very efficient, reliable automatic system, but it's different in operation. I think the frustration in using it is down to not really appreciating how it works.
I'm sorry, but a 1L 100bhp engine is not a really good engine. It may be economical and reliable but it's not the CVT's fault it's so slow. Otherwise, the CVT and manuakl 0-60 times would be drastically different.
"it's a faff if you only have one charge cable"....hmmmm, wonder how we could possibly get round that hurdle.
i mean someone buying a 2021 plate car couldn't possibly afford another charge cable🙄
How can you say, octavia IS better? I drive octavia on work, we have it in our police, honda handels much better. Only golf 4 mottion can compere with civic and new focus.
Yeah, but it was the only thing out of place. A good review all in all.
The only thing that is true in this review is the Road noise .
Can a change of Tyre make it better??
Theres nothing wrong with the cvt gearbox its way better than the shitty manual anyway manual cars are terrible
good review indeed, got the 1.0 129 cv model delivered 11 months ago. It is impossible this car goes unnoticed elsewhere.. but Golf or Octavia?
How can you say (all the VAG dross you listed) is better than a this Honda in almost every way. You have that the wrong way round do you not?
Good review. I had a manual one from new and ignoring looks and infotainment, my long usage suggest passenger seat usually inconveniently low and so does back roof line but later is true for most cars in similar segments. Best in Manual gear and driving position with balanced handling, grip and comfort. Large boot but not always fully used. 1.0 is not that great see higher idle rpm and red line. 1.6 excellent and 1.5 for sure but expensive. Tried new 118i and it's different class both inside and driving. Every car comes with their pros and cons!
Thanks for the interesting review. These things are so subjective. I fell in love with the looks. I like the 3 cyl engine, and don't mind the cvt. I loved the tech, esp the adaptive cruise control. I test drove one yesterday and found it incredibly noisy on the dual carriageway. Another thing putting me off is the very expensive belt change every six years. Poor old Honda, always trying to attract the younger crowd, but instead appealing to 62 year old blokes like me.
I bought one brand new in 2019. Absolutely love it.. 1 litre SE, with the manual box.. And I'm 62 👌
I bought the 1.0 flavour with 48 years so no worries at all, i fell in love at first glance, amazing car
I've just read that this model is chain driven ?
My Mrs purchased one today... Australian version of the top spec model, with the 1.5T . Would have liked the better infotainment system that some other countries got in their top spec models. It seems that buying a new car is somewhat of a compromise and lack of trust in after sales service in some brands and expense of euro parts on the other side of the universe.... basically the same car, good review, not a fan of the new '22 version of the Civic.. looks more "normal" which I guess the majority of buyers want....
Good review just subscribed
I really don’t get why reviewers say the 1.0 is enough, with that horsepower, that size of car, it’s not possibly enough?!
There's another USB charger in the arm rest cubby thing. Also the us version has double cup holder with a coin tray that moves, and a fob holder. We also got a 2.0 NA, and the 1.5t. From what I understand not all countries got the coupe? I have a 2019 coupe ex-t and it's a blast to drive. Also the 1.5 0-60mph here is under 7 I've timed it several times. 6.88 or slightly less. The 1.0 that we never got is way too underpowered for the car, I don't understand why they even made that engine honestly.
There is no USB charger socket in the arm rest of my SE model
I never had one
It looks like a nice car
They missed it up should have told the British to design it
Agreed, but I heard it was designed for the US market. Apparently it sold well there, but not atall well in Europe.
The British can't design anything, have you seen their teeth?
@@reezy3599 Yeah those awful Aston Martins are really ugly cars aren't they. Look at an Aston Martin Vantage or DB9... Hideous cars!
SR 👍
Hi everyone! Cam here. What do you think of the Honda Civic? Would you still buy one even though its rivals are a bit better on paper? Lemme know!
I don't mind the divisive looks. I love the masculine aggressive stance!
This aggressive styling will definitely turn heads, (although not always in a good way🤣) . However, I would still buy it over rivals. Plus, every chav boy racer has a VW Golf!🙄🤢🥴 The Civic is great mix of comfort and athleticism, and ride feels sporty enough. It also has a superior longevity and reliability record than all of it's rivals, and holds its value pretty well. 🙏🏼👏🏼
Yeah, I would certainly buy one ahead of more obvious Euro rivals, in fact I'm considering doing just that. I love the sharp edgy looks of the Civic and Honda engineering is very hard to beat. Planning to test drive the 1.0 with the manual box.
@@rob3018 absolutely! i jut picked up 1.5 auto and i love it every second of my drive. Other cars have smoother look, civic has the character
COO is lower in these cars due to bomb proof reliability.
You should pick a good deal on this he said lol
wicked car, but those wheels are shit. The diamond cut look wey better., 6 speed manual is awesome in this car.
If it’s the 1.5t then no
Why?
@@ThomasMulliganFlute would you spent €38k on a car that potentially could have engine issues after mass reports from people in America and China where cars stalled, oil levels well over the line on the dipstick due to fuel leaking into the engine. I am a Honda loyal customer but this is a no go. Such a shame as the car is such a beaut only for its drawbacks. They say an update to heat the car up quicker will help.. I would want it to help, I’d want the issue resolved completely
@@powderedtoastman3093 Aw I wish I didn't know all this :( was hoping to buy a used one in a year or so
@@ThomasMulliganFlute It’s such a pity. They made a great move to bring back the power of the legendary civics with B16 engines in the new modern turbo equivalent. They are still putting the 1.5t engine in the HRV turbo etc so they must be confident in the engine. I wouldn’t put my money on it if you are trying to get a warranty fix with a dealer in 3-5 years time. No my idea of fun loosing such a wad of cash. If they can resolve the issue completely I’d be on it in seconds
@@powderedtoastman3093 are you talking about 2017 version? I havn't seen anything bad re last few yers
