2020 Honda Civic hatchback EX quick review

- This is a quick run down of the 2020 Honda Civic Hatchback. I'll walk you through several of the features of the vehicle unexplained how they work. This is a great refresher if you have just bought the vehicle, or you are considering buying one.
I'm picking up my ex sonic grey on Thursday. I'm exited! Thanks for this great review
Thanks for watching!
Just bought mine yesterday!!
We're most likely getting a Sonic Grey (Portifino Pearl, really.... right?) 2020 EX Hatch too... It really is the nicest color with the new black accents and the darker alloy wheels... And here we can only get a black on black interior with the EX, which also goes well with Sonic Grey.
Thank you so much for your video
I saw other videos about this car but you explained best about features and functions.
That helped a lot!
Glad it was helpful!
The 1993 Civic Hatchback was my dads first honda...
R.I.P THE KEY 🔑
K3V1N there are still 2019/ 2020 Honda civics with a key 🔑
Good! It's about time that the features, security, and convenience of keyless entry and ignition filters down to affordable vehicles.
I wish you could talk to the people that make Honda’s and told them to have all these features in the sport hatchback but make it so there is a push to start version of the car and an actual key version of the car
The regular Sport is just an entry-level trim package with some minor drivetrain/handling improvements over the base2020 CVT Hatch.
The Sport Touring, however, is the top of the line trim CVT based performance model.
Meaning the Sport Touring is the best Non-Type R 2020 Hatch.
It goes for about $30k though, when a loaded EX is about $25k.....
That's $5k more than a CVT EX Hatch without a power moonroof, for 5hp more and 1 Inch larger wheels. To me it makes no sense; you can improve the performance and handling a Lot more with $1k in aftermarket performance upgrades.
But it's the model you want if you want a 2020 Styled Hatch with a 6 Speed, and don't have $40k for a Type R. ;)
Oh, and actual, regular physical keyed ignition is becoming a thing of the past. It's far too easy to bypass an old-fashioned keyed ignition.

Can't wait to get this!
Great car I bought one looks better than the normal civics
Congrats on the new Honda!
Torque management? That second option in the dash is the turbo boost gauge.
IKR? That goof made me lol :)
very in depth and informative video. Great work.
Thanks for watching!
Im thinking of going for this civic trim just because of the moonroof 😎
Damn that mpg is a killer.
Hi Justin, thank you for a great review! I was wondering if you knew whether or not the standard 2020 Honda Civic Hatchback EX comes with LED headlights, blind spot monitoring? Also, does it come with left & right mirror turn signals? Thank you!
Hey Justin, love your videos. I do have one question, when's the Honda Civic Sedan 2020 coming out??? I can't find info for it anywhere. Keep up the good work 👍
Should see them landing in the next 30 days from my understanding.
black interior is superior
Here’s a good question. Do all Honda Civic EXs share the same interior light bulbs? So for example if I wanted to get a red led lights for the interior of my EX, bulbs from 2017 are the same??? I see the same images online for bulbs that’s why I’m asking
Those of you , who want a clue to the 2020 Honda type R, here you go!!
Exactly! The 2020 CVT Hatch uses the same rolling stock.
Great video Justin. Thanks for sharing. Is active alarm standard in the 2020 Civic EX Hatchback?
There is a security system on all trim levels.
Thank for showing you awesome .
Thanks for watching!
What’s the difference between an Honda Civic hatchback EX and the EX-L? Both from 2020
The EXL adds:
8-Way Power Driver’s Seat
Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel
Leather-Wrapped Shift Knob
Automatic-Dimming Rearview Mirror
Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control System
Heated Side Mirrors
Fog Lights
You get the leather and the dimming mirrors and believe that’s it. I just purchased a 2020 ex last night and I have the leather steering wheel fog light along with the rest of the extras. Odd thing is I even have non leather seats but have them heated
Is there blind spot monitoring on the 2020?
EX has nice options. Anyone hear if the Civic has the Oil Dilution problem squared away? Happy 4th...Cheers.
How much for this car ?
Does it have automatic shut off at like red lights? If so can it be shut off
Can you do a review for the honda civic hatchback 2020 sports touring
Once I can get my hands on one.
For now there's one here: ruclips.net/video/fj6bNQXMdr0/видео.html
Does the brake hold feature come on a manual transmission Civic Sport?
It does. The vehicles also offers hill start assist which will hold the brake as you move your foot from brake to gas so the car does not roll back.
@@JustinFullerReviews Nice!!!!!
Are those seats considered leather or cotton?
The EX has cloth seats.
I would have expected at least a refresh on the infotainment system. Competitors are offering so much better stuff and Honda is really lagging behind. More than anything else, i want them to get rid of that stupid blind spot camera. They got rid of it on the Insight so why is it still on the Civic?
James, Honda has slowly been moving away from the blind spot camera and moving towards blind spot monitoring in the mirrors. You mentioned competitors are offering better features in relation to the infotainment system. Just curious what kind of features you are talking about? I would love to know what cool new features are out there..
@@JustinFullerReviews I will actually use KIA forte as an example here:
10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with power lumbar support
(Civic has 8 with no lumbar support)
Heated and ventilated front seats
(civic only has heated)
Dual-zone, fully-automatic air conditioning (single zone on civic)
Wireless charger (non on civic)
Blind Spot monitoring (Blind Spot Camera on Civic)
A/C Vents for rear passengers
These are some of the features I found to be important as a buyer. I compared these features to the top trim of Honda Civic to top trim of Kia Forte GT with GT2 package. Even with all of that, it still undercuts the touring price of civic by thousand. Not to mention how much power you get from that 201hp DCT. Some competitors also offer heated steering wheel (Mazda 3) or panoramic sunroof (Elantra GT-line). Now, I am mentioning this not to hate on Honda but I want them to do better for customers. I had a 2004 Honda for 14 years and I loved the darn thing and still have a ton of love for Honda but it's hard when your competition offers so much for less and offer more warranty. I am in the market for a car and I really like the exterior design for Honda but the interior design and features feel very outdated. If you disagree with me that is fine but you can't deny these facts.
PS. I know every car manufacturer has a different mission for their cars and it's hard to compare them apples to apples but I only ask for the very basic features.
Are you sure this car is configured as EX, not EXL?
Can you make a video on the civic hatch sport 2020
My 2016 civic/lemon with 16,000 miles on it problems:
While driving my Civic/death trap a computer error caused the computer controlled electric/electronic parking brake to engage four times in series sliding the rear tires and jerking the car to a stop. The Honda service department technician said nothing they did fix the problem.
I traded my Civic death trap for a 2017 Accord with a manual parking brake, and ask the American Honda Motor Co., Inc customer service to compensate me for my $3,669.49 loss on the deal. Honda's customer service department brush off employee said the parking brake problem was fixed although the tech told me it was not, and refused compensation.
Bottom line: if you buy a lemon, you own a lemon, it's your problem.
Other irritating features:
Squeaky windshield wipers, had to replace to maintain my sanity.
Excessive drivetrain noise. I installed sound deadening insulation in the floor front and back seat and the noise continued.
3 of 4 out of round tires replaced due to drivetrain noise. The irritating noise continued.
I now drive a 2019 Altima SL without drive train noise.
Enjoy the ride.
I’ve had my civic ex for over a year and have had no issues with it what so ever
@@yoyohooyo Think that year had Oil Dilution troubles too...
Sport Touring is the only one with Paddle Shifters?
Is that feature worth the extra 4000 the Sport touring is worth compared to the EX
The base sport also has them too
The extra $5k the Sport Touring costs over the EX, to lose the power moonroof and gain an inch on the wheels, makes absolutely No Sense. For what? To mess up the CVT with pretend gear changes? :)
Does the Honda hatchback ex come in red?
Hey Justin, does the EX have the upgraded speaker system? If so, how does it sound?
TNC DRUMS i think the touring is the only trim that had an upgraded sound system
It does offer more speakers than the base. It sound good for a factory system. Enough for the average person I would say. At the EXL level the wattage increases and you gain a sub. And the Touring is more premium,.
At 2:03 when you mention the tweeters in the door it looks like the speaker is exposed? What are we looking at?
The tweeters are on the door next to the handle. They are not exposed, just showing where they are located.
@@JustinFullerReviews The one on the left looked exposed, and different from the one on the right.
@@marsrocket I think there are 2 in-door speaker mounts in the 8 speaker system; a mid-range and a tweeter.
These cars are incredibly hard to get. I've wanted a civic hatchback, but every time I tried to buy one, they got sold. They come in limited quantities, So I had to settle for the sedan model.
They’ve stopped making them due to COVID, and they just started again like 2-3 weeks ago.
Great video. I have a problem I hope you can help me with. I am interested in purchasing the 2020 Honda Civic hatchback sport touring manual transmission. I would like to have it in the sonic gray color scheme. I live in Southern California and all the dealerships I contacted stated they don't have it in their inventory. One dealer told me there are only 4 in the state. However, none of the dealerships want to make an effort to get the vehicle for me. They will not tell me the name of the dealership, or attempt to make a trade or arraignments with the dealerships to acquire the vehicle. They just state, "I'm sorry. It is not in our inventory. I thought they are suppose to be the helpful Honda people. Do you have any connections with Honda that can help me resolve this issue? I would appreciate any suggestions you might have.
A dealership could order the car for you. But you are looking at 90 days of wait time. The Sonic Gray color has never been produced a large amounts. And compounding that with a manual transmission makes that number even lower. If you were willing to agree to numbers, put a deposit down and wait, I bet someone would go get the car for you.
The manuals are hard to get so I just put down a thousand and ordered mine in Sport trim. Since it was an order I just went thru the Costco program and saved a few bucks. You still need a dealer but you get a discount. The insurance companies are cracking down on manuals so it won't be long and they will be gone.
@@JustinFullerReviews It is very unlikely that the other dealership will send it elsewhere.
When new Hondas are traded amongst dealerships it is just that, a trade. So while you are requesting a piece of inventory from that dealership, you have to have something they want in return. So if they are holding onto a very unique or rare vehicle they are much less likely to want to trade it. In this case a manual transmission, in Sonic Gray is exceptionally rare. The dealership I worked at, would only trade vehicles amongst dealers within a certain mile radius. We also had to have some sort of relationship with them. So while every dealership would love to trade and get you exactly what you want, it is not always that easy.
Any differences between this and the 2019 model? Looks the exact same as my '19 ex hatch
The Touring model now offers a manual transmission or CVT. The Sport model gains the touch screen along with an upgrade to an 8 speaker system. Push button start now comes in the Sport along with remote start. They have changed the wheels design on all trim levels.
@@JustinFullerReviews I'm pretty salty about this. I bought a 2019 Sport Touring Hatchback a few months back, had I known the 2020 Sport Hatchback was going to have Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, updated speaker system, & push to start, I probably would've opted for that... Damn. Still really happy with my car, but meh. What're you gonna do. Also, they need to give these Hatchbacks some more HP! At least ~200-205 HP to be on par with the Si.
Tyler bruh a few mods and you can bring the HP to that level.
@@yakuzaohtani3631 what kinda mods are recommended?
@@tsenif my 2019 civic hatchback sport touring has android auto / apple car play.
what are the main differences between the ex and the sport ?
The EX adds:
Heated Front Seats
One-Touch Power Moonroof with Tilt Feature
Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control System
Honda LaneWatch™*
Apple CarPlay® Integration*
Android Auto™ Integration*
Smart Entry with Walk Away Auto Lock®
Leather-Wrapped Steering Wheel
Leather-Wrapped Shift Knob
17-Inch Alloy Wheels
7-Inch Display Audio with High-Resolution Electrostatic Touch-Screen
180-Watt Audio System with 8 Speakers
Driver’s Seat with 8-Way Power Adjustment
Remote Engine Start
Push Button Start
SMS Text Message Function*
SiriusXM® Radio*

1.5-Amp USB Smartphone/Audio Interface*
HondaLink®*
Fog Lights
Driver’s and Front Passenger’s Illuminated Vanity Mirrors
Passenger-Side Seatback Pocket
Variable Intermittent Windshield Wipers
Heated, Body-Colored Power Side Mirrors
So basically everything 😂😂😂
@@JustinFullerReviews A LOT. lol
Jeffrey Toale lol the sport comes with almost all of these things. You are incredibly wrong
So pretty much the same as the 2019 just looks a liiiiiiiil bit different
Mostly. But as perhaps the final year of the CVT based Civic, the powertrain, and electronics (systems electronics, not the now outdated Infotainment system), have had tweaks and improvements as well.
And the 2020 Hatch R Type, which uses the same rollingstock as this 2020 CVT Hatch, is one of the best in quite a while.
2:47
The back vents is another mess over a previous mess. From a 2018 hatch owner
It’s not ok that it doesnt have lumbar support!
Agreed! But apparently, you can't have power seats And lumbar support in a 2020 Civic Hatch. I'm not sure why; It may be either that at a ton and a half they can't afford the weight, or it might be that because, you know, Honda.
You dont have to shove your hand in the handle like youre stuffing a turkey to get the remote unlock to work, you can just stand next to the car lmao
Guess I just like Turkey....
So verses the sport how does everyone compare those? I'm trying to decide what I want.
The Sport has a little bit stiffer suspension. You will most likely notice it in the ride. And moving down you are giving up:
Heated Front Seats
One-Touch Power Moonroof with Tilt Feature
Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control System
Honda LaneWatch
If you do not mind giving these up I would go with the Sport and save the money. I do think the 18 inch wheels and under-body spoiler kits looks pretty awesome. Those do not come on the EX, but do on the Sport.
@@JustinFullerReviews I want those, and the wheels, and spoiler.. Fuck. I guess the sport touring?
I was thinking of buying an LX but the radio systems doesn't seem as nice, what does radio sound like in the LX , does it have the tweeter and woofers as in the LX
The LX offers a 4 speaker system and a basic head unit. I personally would recommend going up in trim levels for a number of reasons.
What are the reasons for going up a trim level , other then getting a six speaker radio system. I live in Canada, they only offer the LX, SPORT , SPORT TOURING?
They do not offer EX in Canada, LX, SPORT AND SPORT TOURING, thank you for the advise.
Go Sport trim and save some money unless you need heated power seats and remote start.
What gas does it take?
Regular for this, but premium for sport and sport touring.... don’t ask why. Lol.
@@michaelp8564 After 121k miles, my Elantra had a slight ping so I put high octane and runs gr8.
No outside review. !!!!
Too bright lighting and too fast camera control. Slow down your movement and next film withe sun behind you then no sun flares! Whoo Hoo!
Pee poo poo pee
You're very knowledgeable about the product, but you need to get a little knowledge about your platform! You're producing VIDEO!! Perhaps take a class...Starting off with the sun beaming into the lens is a 101 no no. And rough on our eyes.
