My only real issue with the new Civic is the turbo not being available on the Sport model, at least on the hatchback. A trim like "Sport" should have more power, and it's the best looking one, plus I don't want a sunroof. I liked that the previous model hatchbacks had turbos on all trims, emphasizing the hatchbacks as the more Sport option.
@@mrsimpleesarcastik3494 The 1.5L turbo in the 2022 Civics is the same as the last generation and those have been extremely reliable. The worst thing I have seen anyone say about them is that they're susceptible to rodent damage. The 2.0L engine in this car is so boring that the few added parts and potential maintenance costs are kind of worth it.
@@Fortyfester im only going by what my neighbor tells me, hes a master tech at a Honda dealership nearby, He told me to pass these up when I was looking last year!
it's such a convenience to have wireless carplay - you leave the phone in your pocket and BAM! connected! i thought i wouldn't like this feature as much as i do but i bought a new S4 during the spring and now i couldn't go back, it's that great.
I agree it's a good feature, but not necessary for me if I'm pricing out a Civic. It *is* something I'd want to see in premium and luxury vehicles though for sure.
I think the na engine in the long run if you're planning on keeping the car for a long time is the best option and really wish they offered it on they ex model. Just personal preference.
@@cool7654321 he’s probably saying the non turbo engine will last longer with less risk of having issues down the line tbh I did hear something about oil dilution or something in that particular engine
@@y.s8915 I forgot I posted this comment a year ago. So I ended buying a 2022 Ridgeline AWD and my wife got a Pilot. We both went with the 3 year lease for now and in 10 months no issues whatsoever. I honestly didn't know the EX came with na engine. I was looking at the Accord but finally decided for the Ridgeline since there's a lot of mountain bike trails here in North GA and a truck just make everything easy.
They finally got the hatchbacks out now, but the only problem is that I can't find any LX model hatchback anywhere. I don't want a sport trim as it's too expensive, since the hatchback already adds $1000 to the cost. Good thing is that I'm fine waiting a few months to buy one.
I believe the oil dilution was solve sometime during the last gen production. From everything I could find on the issue. I felt confident enough to buy one.
Sorry for the question, is EX-L a trim? I don’t see a lot of people mentioning it but it comes up as a search option & I’m not really familiar with it.
Anyone experiencing issues with thier 2022 civic LX USB port not displaying song files correctly? MAJOR ISSUE with me where my old car would list the band name folders, then album sub folders, then the songs within that… the LX is now showing every single band, album and song within ONE GIANT LIST. Is there ANY WAY around this? So annoying!!!
I asked the same question. The dealer said its because its a touring model and these are more high end looking. I'd much rather have the black rims. Wish they gave the option for which rim you'd prefer.
Yes a mark up car in Hawaii. it will be my first and last new car. I have one more year to pay the car off. It sure did costs alot, but in the end I love everything about my new baby💖
Not a fan of 1.5 liter turbo it’s a small engine that regardless of build quality isn’t going to take much punishment lol tbh everyone is gonna drive it hard so yea, I think 2.0 is the sweet spot for a turbo like the type r for example or even the accord 2.0t ……so I went with the sport and possibly turbo it myself down the line lol

I agree. Make it optional on the Sport.
stay away from all turbos unless you like headaches

Go for the 2.0 non-turbo and you’ll appreciate it if you plan on keeping it beyond 3 years.
$24,700 EX? It’s now $26,950 without destination! That’s a $2,250 increase in two years! Wtf?

I’m sorry WHAT DID YOU JUST BUY??? LMFAO. 😂😂😂😂😂
I have the EX, and I agree that wireless Carplay is terrific. I just bought a wireless carplay adapter from Amazon for $100 and it works perfectly.

so sport is better for commuting is what yourw saying?

Why do the Autotrader thumbnails now look EXACTLY like Kelley Blue Book thumbnails?!? 🤔
Agree in regard to lack of interior color choices. At least offer grey as a second option with all the colors.
Right !

Only reason im getting touring is because leather seats, wireless charging, and rims on EX are horrendous
there actually pretty nice lmao
I got the EX didn't know about the oil dilution will have to see how it holds up. I love the power and the MPG that's why I got it over the 2.0
Any issues so far?
@@Kr-jx3wo nope 7k miles in not an issue does well on mobil 1 oil gets better mileage
@@loacryptopreneur8327 thanks for the info. Do you use premium gas or regular?

They solved the oil mix issue with this generation
I’m agonizingly waiting for the hatchback too! What’s taking so long? At least give us a price
I would just wait for the Si. .
great video
Sorry for the question, is EX-L a trim? I don’t see a lot of people mentioning it but it comes up as a search option & I’m not really familiar with it.
When you see the L added to a Honda trim, it typically means Leather. So the EX-L would be the EX-level trim with a leather interior.
What about the EX-B trim? How different is it from the EX trim? Any idea on this?
This is for the 2023 model btw
Any concerns of oil dilution on the 1.5 liter engine? Is this the same engine in the CRV?
stay away,,its junk
Excellent

Only $5,000 more than last year with same engine
Why are the alternate 18” sport wheels full price?
I asked the same question. The dealer said its because its a touring model and these are more high end looking. I'd much rather have the black rims. Wish they gave the option for which rim you'd prefer.
That EX engine they had problems with it, the oil and gas was mixing I go with the 2.0 it's reliable and they used it for years and years
What’s the new hotness? Hatchback ?
Only interested in Touring. In Black.
FYI all factory stereos no highs no lows…….after market systems produce the best sound possible sound, stop kidding yourself!
Does the 1.5T require premium fuel?
No
sure does
You can use non premium but you really won’t get much out of the turbo unless you use premium
Anyone has a used 2016 civic you want to sell to me in Ghana ? I have been saving but still haven’t been able to buy one yet.
Cvt is trash?
Show muito top 👌👌👌👌
If there is CVT, not buying it...I will wait for manual
no more manuals
The 10th gen was so much better this looks very basic.
I got the 2023 the sport touring hatchback for 37.000 Ouch🤮
Let me guess mark up?
Yes a mark up car in Hawaii. it will be my first and last new car. I have one more year to pay the car off. It sure did costs alot, but in the end I love everything about my new baby💖
@@irenemanuel4217 Yeah, close to 40k seems like a lot for a civic, I’d be pissed if they just told me that
