Ya but the exterior though 😬 maybe I'm biased because I own an si coupe and love the aggressive front end but this isn't an accord! It's a civic! But the interior, oh boy, I love it. I love the simple premium look they went with.
@@MrFoxfire510 good luck having a model 3 in most small/medium sized cities. Let alone a rural area. The charging station infrastructure is garbage right now in most of the US.
Honda KNOWS how to make a car for humans. The interior layout is perfect...so many automakers are doing tech for the sake of tech and ruining useability.
I gotta say, this is a GREAT car for under $30K! I also love how Honda kinda went back their conservative, old school design in a way! Kinda reminds me of the early 2000s Civics that are still EVERYWHERE! I like it!
This car has more features than some of the 2022-2023 cars being sold as we speak. This is insane. I am finding it hard to justify spending on a BMW or Mercedes when everything they have is right here in this entry level sedan.
I absolutely hate it now because it where people now go to text and drive. Since they are blocking everyone else behind them, they don't have to pay attention to the road as much.
time flies man ! i remember watching this video thinking woah imagine having this car, and two months later after watching it, I had saved enough to take it out. surreal moment i’ve ever had
100 % agree on having the option of having smaller wheels if you want . This new car really has a nice interior and this cvt seems to be much improved compared to cars of ten years ago , great car Honda .
Agree. The Accord has a $39k Touring model with 19" rims. And even more odd going from the base model Accord Hybrid to the Touring, you go from 17" rims to 19" rims and EPA mileage rating goes from 48 to 43. Like what!? So you get a touring car, which is meant for comfort, and you get a hybrid, which is meant for mileage....and lose both comfort and mileage by getting the larger rims. Really should be able to swap rims.
Tbh I don't really like the exterior design of the new type R ..it looks very simple and boring..but the interior is more beautiful and luxury than last model..but the exterior design I more prefer to the last model..overall all model of Honda Civic is the best🔥
Now, this is a real test drive.....really good with all the touch and feel experience with detail explanation instead of just spewing the specs like others would do.
I was waiting for this from Topher. He is my favorite reviewer on RUclips. I actually just bought mine at 9am this morning and my Touring is magnificent. Nearly flawless.
Apparently, they added VTEC on the exhaust side. Previously in the Civic, they didn’t have VTEC on the 1.5t. I love how even though it’s turbocharged, it still pulls at high RPMs. Great engine that I tried in the Accord.
The previous gen Civic Hatchback had a 174HP 1.5t engine and a 180HP 1.5t. This revised engine with VTEC has 180HP just like the latter mentioned engine. I wonder if the latter mentioned engine is identical to this new one and secretly had exhaust VTEC.
That sound of tactile quality from the controls like the gearstick and climate dials is so impressive, especially when the Civic’s main rivals like the Skoda Octavia are moving away from nice, physical controls to stupid touch buttons that offer no tactile feedback. I think I want one of these.
The Skoda Octavia is not the Civic's competitor, at least in the States. The Civic here in the States mainly competes with the Mazda3, VW Jetta, Hyundai Elantra, as well as the Toyota Corolla
This is prolly gonna be the first car in my life. Was really debating between the Elantra, Mazda 3 hatch and the civic and so far after test driving all three, the civic is a clear winner in almost every department ( a mazda 3 gt fanboi here )
The new interior is fantastic, but i'd be lying if i said i liked the exterior. The civic it replaces was a truly unique and interesting looking vehicle. Tons of character. Wish it was more of an evolution of that look instead of a mini accord.
Finally, a 2018-2020 Accord Chime. I thought there was going to be that high pitched beep. Well I kind of miss the ding sound played on the 2012-2021 civics.
@@Saturdayz_In_The_Fall hopefully that Mitsubishi-esque chime was an Accord-only one-off and didn't make it into other recent Hondas (HR-V, Jazz, e, 2023 CR-V, etc.)
On the contrary, I would call it bland and without character. The 2012 - 2015 model had great interior design that really stood out, the recent (outgoing) one had interesting exterior. This 2022 one lacks any personality, in my opinion.
Such a fantastic review! The comments about the road noise and smaller tires helping with that are well-taken. Still, with my coming directly from a 2014 Mazda3 Grand Touring, I can tell from this review that the 2022 Civic Touring is quieter. All of the tech in here is just incredible and one of the main reasons I'm really excited about the car, especially for the price!
@@mbenton6 You’re clearly not reading. I have a 2014 Mazda3, not a 2019 and up. So the 2022 Civic, while maybe louder than the 2019 and up Mazda3, is quieter than my 2014.

Your reviews are always so informative and well produced, love it. Listening on my computer sound system the road noise sounds worse than my 2020 Civic, those tires were really singing in your video during the interstate driving impressions. Is your microphone amplifying it or is it better in person?
@@jgonsalves22 The guys on the Y/T "Talking Cars" video complained about the tire noise as the worst thing about the Touring model. I'd stick to the EX; it has 17s and none of the models give your lumbar support.
I have a 2014 Accord Coupe V6. The last run of the coupe, and the last run of the V6's in the Accord. I'm in a position now where I theoretically could swing a new Supra, but every time I drive my Accord I just realize that I really still love the car. As someone whose owned Euro's in the past, anyone who hates on Honda just hasn't truly driven one with an open mind. They keep making fantastic vehicles.
Great review, Topher 👍 Honda knocked it out of the park with the new Civic. So much value for the price point. If I were shopping sub-$30k I'd buy this thing fully loaded.
I think that is a very nice and sensible car for someone who just wants a vehicle that is reliable, stylish, and feature packed at an affordable price. I am honestly thinking about buying one these but I wish they incorporated full LED tail-lights in the rear. It would have made the vehilce look more premium.
I own the 2024 version of this car, in the touring trim. It feels like a super upscale car and I've been getting a return of 36+ mpg in mixed driving. I love it and I don't think it's too loud on the highway. There is a tire noise but it's not too bad in comparison to the previous generation. Acceleration is awesome, just like he said. If anyone has any questions, ask away.
I have seen lots of reviews of this new Honda Civic 2022 this week and your the only one that has shown the Bose audio sound system with menus. Well done greatly appreciated :)
Love your videos but I’m gonna need you to review a bad car because I feel like your reviews are always so generous and that I haven’t seen you drive a car you dislike 🤣
I’m still remembering when Honda redesigned the 2012 Honda Civic and thought they could away with it … 10 years later, now they stayed overtime designing this impressive car.
Honestly i really thought I’d hate this car because I’m not in favor of the new exterior but the interior is gorgeous & I’m absolutely inlove. The sound system sounds amazing. It honestly makes me want to upgrade my 2016 civic. Hopefully you’ll be reviewing the Type R

Loving the new civic interior! It’s perfect. The exterior is very clean. It will take a little tome to get used to the tip of the nose, but as always, you get used to civic looks after a while. I listened to the audio section of this video and the Bose system sounds incredible in there. Can’t wait to take it for a drive. I hear it drives better than the new Corolla which has a nice drive.

Love the interior. Love that they finally got a decent sound system. My 2019 civic has the worst sound system I've had in a car in a while. Not a fan of the exterior though on this one.
IDK why lots of people here seem to like this Civic. I am really disappointed, I think the car looks so generic and bland. I loved the design of the interior on the 2012-2015 Civics - that one really stood out and had character! The exterior is great on the outgoing one. This 2022? Totally unremarkable, even the Nissan Sentra or Hyundai Elantra have more personality...
@@lexiani This one just looks more refined, the previous generation looked so childish, like it was trying too hard to be fun. 10/10 for the new generation!
Honda: "We heard that the 10th gen was over-styled. So we took it all out. Aren't we grand?" I just hope the Si/hatch fixes it. The new shape is great but the body is crap. At the very least.... new ILX-replacement?
read Car and driver and MotorTrend= 0-60 at 6.8 s with civic touring 2021, cvt, 1.5t.....(only 7.5 s touring 2022. ..slow !) but 180 hp ??? what is the problem...heavy pounds?
It's an insane overreaction. Why make a small Accord and call it a Civic? They are meant for different people. I PRAY the Si/hatch/ILX-replacement fixes that. The shape is great, but the exterior.... it's more conservative than my dad when he sees me mention Europe in any context.

Loving the new civic interior! It’s perfect. The exterior is very clean. It will take a little tome to get used to the tip of the nose, but as always, you get used to civic looks after a while. I listened to the audio section of this video and the Bose system sounds incredible in there. Can’t wait to take it for a drive. I hear it drives better than the new Corolla which has a nice drive.
Amazing how music makes anyones drive better
mann i can’t wait to see the Si and type r. I love the design of this new generation of civic
Honda’s suck
@@davidsoto7114 ay man that’s ur opinion, i’m a huge fan of honda’s because of the reliability and cars like the civics and accords are fun zippy cars
@@rajarafe8736 owned a 2020 Honda Accord sport, totally boring ass car, drove plenty of civics, handle horrible. just bought my bmw e90 328i XDrive, I think I’ll stick with the Germans 😂
and sound systems are one of the things that makes a car shine
I really like the civic, I can’t seem to find rear vents in any video or posts, I live in Arizona and I think rear vents is a must in the heat here
I just bought 2021 civic hatchback March...I really want the new interior
I hope that Honda fixed the oil dilution in the 1.5 liter turbocharged engine or else it’s still a problem.
I’m sure they have because it’s Honda
Honda the best in class.
The back of that civic looks like an Audi and like an vw jetta and also that civic gauge cluster looks exactly like the Jetta gauge cluster of the fuel measurement and all on the sides.
Thank you for driving to 2022 civic I own a 2001 civic had it for 20 years I love it but I have it's kind of low to theI have it's kind of low to the ground I'm 63 now And getting out of ITIT's starting to bother me And I'm hoping that the New civic With higher up off the groundWith higher up off the ground for the older people who like the car Thank you for driving it and telling me about ITIT's something to consider thank you so much.
Love the interior. Love that they finally got a decent sound system. My 2019 civic has the worst sound system I've had in a car in a while. Not a fan of the exterior though on this one.
IDK why lots of people here seem to like this Civic. I am really disappointed, I think the car looks so generic and bland. I loved the design of the interior on the 2012-2015 Civics - that one really stood out and had character! The exterior is great on the outgoing one. This 2022? Totally unremarkable, even the Nissan Sentra or Hyundai Elantra have more personality...
@@lexiani This one just looks more refined, the previous generation looked so childish, like it was trying too hard to be fun. 10/10 for the new generation!
@@10293 yeah, cars shouldn't be fun...bland is better....
I was able to test drive a 2022 civic sport on the first day it was being sold, it was so fun to drive.
Were you about to downshift at 16:27?? Hahahaha you thought it was a manual for a second didn't you?
Daamn
Gonna get this after 6 years
like the mazda 3 interior more tbh.
I like the mazda 3 everything better
Mazda 3 looks so much better, inside and out.
my god that BOSE sound system is fire 🔥
Honda: "We heard that the 10th gen was over-styled. So we took it all out. Aren't we grand?"
I just hope the Si/hatch fixes it. The new shape is great but the body is crap. At the very least.... new ILX-replacement?
Doesn’t look aggressive like the 10th gen
The 10th gen looks mean
This looks like a jetta or impreza
The visibility is nice! Good Job Honda!
The interior looks great! I think Mazda set the bar pretty high with the 3 though, still the class leader by quite a bit imo
Doubt. Quality> quantity
Mazda 3 is no longer intended to compete with the Civic; it's waiting for Integra to enter production
I actually just bought this car I love it
You did. Looking at one to buy. So worth it??!
Damn that CVT struggling on the 0-60 😨
0-60 mph= 6,8 s Touring sedan 2021
0-60 mph=7,5s Touring sedan 2022
read Car and driver and MotorTrend= 0-60 at 6.8 s with civic touring 2021, cvt, 1.5t.....(only 7.5 s touring 2022. ..slow !) but 180 hp ??? what is the problem...heavy pounds?
CVT do a very good job with 1.5 T Touring 2021 and a 174hp....same year..SI do 6.5s 0-60 mph
Definitely getting this car
Update definitely got the car 😂💯 love it
That engine on tickover sounds like a sowing machine!
I like the visibility from the drivers seat
Hi Topher, which is the superior lane-centering tech--- on this Honda or new Hyundai/KIAs with Highway Driving Assist? Thanks!
hyundai/kia system is still better imo
@@trb1589 thanks for the heads up regarding this! I am looking for a good roadtrip vehicle with the best lane centering (other than tesla).
Best channel for reviewing cars
The interior is nice but the exterior just feels so low effort and boring.
In ways it is but I still like it. Hopefully the hatch and si are made a little more aggressive looking.
Agree.. the looks: Accord and Jetta haha!
It looks modern and retro at the same time and I love it
I just can't get behind the exterior looks of the car. It's so bland, hopefully the si and type r look better
It's an insane overreaction. Why make a small Accord and call it a Civic? They are meant for different people.
I PRAY the Si/hatch/ILX-replacement fixes that. The shape is great, but the exterior.... it's more conservative than my dad when he sees me mention Europe in any context.
Uhhh Idk what to get but I’m planning to get a new car by march 😮💨 I’m stuck between a 1.5t accord or one of these, tuff decision
