It’s a rocket off the line. I already test drove both the hatchback and sedan version. More than enough torque for a daily driver. I’m getting one as well.
Yeah if you are looking at a “compact” sedan then there really is no better option. I wouldn’t even touch Hyundai. My neighbors spent more time at the dealer than his driveway. The Corolla hybrid is also a nice option if a sporty look doesn’t matter and just need a solid A to B. Just sucks dealers may mark these up and accessories up on this model no doubt
I went from a 2011 Mazda 3 to a 2025 Boost Blue Civic Hatch Hybrid...and wow. I love this car. Rides incredibly smooth, quiet cabin (at least compared to what I am used to), great fuel economy, fun to drive (especially in sport mode), the paddle breaks behind the wheel make a nice mini-game to play while driving and the gray interior I was able to get give it a nice contrast inside the vehicle. Great car!
Picked up a 2025 RR Sport Touring hatch 2 weeks ago. Love this car. Traded in a 2023 Civic Hatch EX-L. The hybrid is a better car in a pile of ways. Very happy with the swap
Im using my 25 Civic Hybrid for my pizza delivery job and its by far the best car I've ever owned hands down! Saves me $ and makes me $ at the same time. Best daily driver Honda has built in years. For 30k you get a lot of car for the $.
The 2007 civic hybrid also has 50 mpg the tech isn’t new but if you really look into its cause the oil companies Colluding with car manufacturer to increase the consumption of gas in their cars and in return they get a pay day
i just switch from model 3 base to Civid hybrid touring sedan, no regrets , absolutely awesome car, you will feel the engines noise again , the real car feeling…. 😮😮😮
Hey Joe I tried buying one of these but all my socal dealerships wanted 2k over sticker so I just ended up buying a 2025 Hyundai Elantra N-Line. Great review!
@@DavidGotelli710 I currently have a Kia I hope you don’t regret your purchase as much as I hate mine if Toyota had been able to supply me the parts to repair my 2020 Camry XSE ID STILL ON THAT BUT I WAITED A YEAR FOR THE PARTS TO GET HERE BUT THEY NEVER CAME SO I GAVE THEM THE CAR BACK SINCE I COULDNT FIND A DEALERSHIP THAT WOULD TRADE IT IN FOR ME EITHER
Love the review, Joe hope you and Laurie and the team had an awesome weekend, have a good upcoming week guys and God bless and keep the great reviews coming. My friend of mine just bought a new Accord a couple weeks ago at least it not the hybrid one the regular one gotta check out in person, I’ve never seen this generation get in person and Civic. I wanna check out the Civic even more so.
Excellent review! Thank you! I’m thinking of going with this specific model from my 2018 Civic EX. Really loving everything about it! And that color 😮💨
Could you start talking about the rear door materials too? A lot are hard touch. $33k is a lot for a Civic. That's what I paid for my 23' Tucson SEL convenience
Amazing MPG. At 50 MPG, if you are paying 25 cents/Kwhr, the fuel cost of this Honda is almost as low as an EV. The hybrids have gained so much market share recently, and i believe that the sales increase in hybrids is higher than pure EV's this year.
I’m actually surprised out of all the videos. I’ve watched on this vehicle, none have shown the car driving from the outside. You are the first video where I get to see and hear what it sounds like from the outside. And this was something I definitely had a question about since I know hybrids have a programmed noise so pedestrians can hear you coming when driving on just the electric motor.
I ordered mine today. I have a 2022 Civic Touring. The interior is similar. It’s gonna be interesting for me going hybrid. Gonna love that gas mileage though.
Joe, its called a moonroof if it has a sun shade, not a sunroof. A lot of reviewers get that wrong. The tunnel in the rear seat floor could be for the exhaust pipe. Great review, as ever!
Joe there is a recall and STOP SALE in effect for certain Civics because of high pressure fuel pump failure. Don't know if this model is affected but I tried buying a new Civic Sport today and they wouldn't sell me the car. I was pretty disappointed.
Joe…thank you for another great video. I love the Civic Hatchback, definitely a huge contender for me whenever my old Genesis G80 decides the leave the chat.
Real talk, Raiti. As a Honda fan and fanatic, I hate that they cheaped out on adding vents to the rear of civic. It is a beautiful machine and yes, as a 9th gen accord driver, I will never get the 11th gen accord. I prefer the civic over the accord now. I hope Honda listens and brings back vents and connectivity to the rear and redesign the accord. They did it on the CRV’s
The crazy thing is, the rear air vents are there in Asia and European markets. This fact alone causes my distrust in Honda Acura sales tactics. I would love them otherwise, but i can't with their price manipulating. They'd rather you buy the accord.
@@GPSX6 i don't think so, Civics in Asia & EU had panoramic roofs since 2007, Acura integra/TSX or USA Accord doesn't have it. same with other civic features like power folding mirrors
A new Tesla Model 3 is $42,400. This Civic hybrid is $34k. If you splurge a little you get full electric with Tesla. And let's be honest, there's something exciting about being in a Tesla compared to a Honda.
@@Letsberealish I wouldn’t have a fully electric car even if it were free I’d still buy a gas fueled car the first time any one turned my car off I’d be wanted for murder so it’s much safer for me to have a car that’s gas fueled
@@Letsberealishnah Tesla ain’t proven. People have Hondas from the 90s still running strong. Tesla is good but can’t be considered even great yet with that they’re still just getting a grasp on better quality control. Plus hybrid is currently the best today. Electric is still not there yet and soulless driving with no feedback vs a gas variant vehicle
I really love that Civic hybrid now yes the back seats lack in amenities like a Genesis gv80 but keep in mind this is a lot cheaper than the apostles to the luxury cars.
@@RaitisRides yes I agree with you Joe I feel like for Honda that is where they kind of went wrong because comparing it to the apostles to the luxury cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars they have more amenities for the back then compact cars
@@RaitisRides yeah I feel like for being a compact car they should give you more amenities comparing it to the disciples of luxury that cost way more like a Rolls-Royce
@@johnnysilverhand1733most people that are buying them are buying them for a daily driver. I don’t think a lot of people will be road tripping them. 95% of the time there will be nobody in the back seat.
Thanks for another great review Joe! You are the best. Could you share with us the other reasons why you prefer the civic over the accord? I am looking at both and leaning toward the accord for greater quiet and refinement. Thank you.
50MPG is great. The charging costs per KW at some super chargers is nearing 1$/KWH. At this point it doesn't make any sense to drive any electric unless you don't have a L2 Charger.
I test drove one and was very surprised at how good it was. Not that I would buy one. I just wanted to see what the new hybrid powertrain feels like because the upcoming Honda Prelude will be a hybrid.
Super J ~ put some premium in your garage of monster muscle cars, one day I'll come visit ya & we can go cruising = yay. another S Tier report from my favorite auto channel, thanks Joe for being awesome.
Most of them were not recalled. It was the 24 non hybrid models that fell into that recall. About 8 percejtv if the really really manufactured ones were recalled
Joe -- 11:30 Honda uses that tunnel for the exhaust (flex pipe and muffler) on single exhaust, it has steel heat shielding bolted inside the tunnel and the flex pipe, and exhaust pipe and muffler sits in there flush and does not hang down under the car. I totally agree with you on getting one of these over a Tesla Model 3 ! This Honda Civic Hybrid has 490 miles range on the highway which will get you from Tampa Fl all the way to Atlanta Georgia nonstop (460 miles) !
You'll need to stop and use the bathroom and stretch legs. Our highway diesel suburban used for highway trips will go 700 miles (27mpg on a 28 gallon diesel tank) but there is no way I'm going more than 300 miles without a break. Driven it as far as 850 miles in a day.
This will be the norm for all cars going forward. It does save them costs, but it also keeps the driver less distracted, since people fidgeting on the back of driver’s seat can be annoying.
I have been thinking about buying honda civic hybrid since before they announce it but now I'm kind of hesitant due to the recalls steering lack of grease and now fuel pump.
I’m waiting for this in the “hybrid hatch” iteration. Can you review it c its looks and extra trunk capacity. Two years ago I reluctantly traded UP IN HEIGHT to the new 23 CRV for the height advantage as I found my beautiful 18 VW Golf “ Sportwagen “ a bit too low. Now I’d like to trade in my 23 CRV for this hybrid Civic. Problem still remains in the height disadvantage. Must consider is this a snow shovel in our winter snow in Manitoba or not as it’s a front wheel drive vs my CRV’S all wheel? Btw the price of our 23 Civic Touring is a whopping $40000. Then we pay 12% tax over that. Nuts! I’d love to pay that $33000 you Americans pay. Oh and our Hondas are made in Alliston Ontario. Go Ni, go figure!
This Civic Hybrid, and the new Prius Prime, both raised the hybrid game substantially. Both are capable of 0-60 in the low to mid-6 second range, which is a hot hatch level of performance not too long ago. Even the current VW GTI is only about 0.5 seconds quicker but gets 25 mpg in the city instead of 50+ for these hybrids. According to C&D, a 2015 Mustang Ecoboost with a 6-speed does 0-60 in 5.5 and the 1/4 mile in 13.9 but requires 93 octane gas to do it. Put in 87 gas and it'll probably barely crack 6 seconds and the 1/4 in the low 14's, which means the Civic would be just 0.3-0.5 second slower. This apple-to-orange comparison really lends perspective on how good the new generation of hybrid cars has become. Put some better performance 4-season tires on them, and they can be decently fun in the corners too while still being ultra efficient. Very impressive!
@@Oregoncoast30well, it handles better, looks better (subjective), smoother, driving inputs feel better. The camry will beat it in highway efficiency and having more optional features though. Can’t go wrong with wither. They’re both the best in class
You can with some, but they normally have a limited range, and when the battery is flat, you are lugging around a lot of dead weight. This means that on any longer journey, once the battery is out of charge, the fuel consumption is not very good. Plug-in hybrids are great if you make short journeys and have access to home charging, but for most people, a self-charging hybrid like this makes more sense.
I test drove the accord. It’s a tiny bit slower but feels almost the same. Can’t go wrong on either. Accord is better if you have passengers in the rear always
They are going to push the manual buyers into the Integra. I can’t believe they took away the rear passenger amenities and charged more. When I fill up my 2023 ST, the range says 440. I have gotten 40+mpg round trip several times with premium.
Disagree on the heads up display. I’ve had that for several years now and never use it. What I would LOVE to see is memory seat and a heated steering wheel. Never understood why manufacturers offer heated SW in other countries but not in the US
I work in sales and bought this exact same car. At this price point, It checks every box for me. Is it perfect, nope. Is it very close, yes. Rear A/C is the only drawback and not getting the 9inch screen in the Hybrid sport or wireless Apple CarPlay. The top trim really just makes the most sense, If you are going hybrid. The 3k jump makes a significant difference in the Touring Hybrid. Leather seats, wireless Apple care play, 9inch screen, Bose system, power seats.
@ It is above average for a stock system. I like it enough to buy it the touring model. It is not worth dealing with aftermarket on these newer civics, especially with active noise canceling.
@@texasboii5539 Me too buddy. I have a 4 channel JL amp and a DD audio 12 inch sub. I did not bother messing with it on the 25 Civic. Buy the touring model though. The Bose system, leather, wireless Apple car play is enough to justify 3k. I don’t like adding aftermarket amps and running them to stock head units either. It never seems to work 100% perfect in my experience. You have to use inline converters and running 4 channel wires is expensive.
@ been an infinity fan, but been thinking of trying JL speakers, don’t really care for the sub, as I’m fine with sound for now, may add a sub later down the line, either way just need LOC, and 4 channel amp and I should be good to go 👍🏼
These really are great cars. All trim levels are well equipped and look fantastic. Can't beat the truly impressive balance with fuel economy/performance they achieved here.
Depends. Me personally I think both look nice. However, the top trim accord is like 7k more expensive. I would just choose the Civic if you need a solid MPG car. The accord has the bigger screen and slightly larger with the rear vents.
Joe, I have the 2022 Sport touring Civic and really enjoy it. Trading it in for a 2025 Sport touring CRV. Is the half electronic dash a zonk or is it something that doesn't bother you? All other CRv's around the world have the 10 inch digital dash as does my civic and I really enjoy it
Would you buy one of these or a 2025 Camry hybrid for a daily driver? both around the same price (SE trim in Camry) and same MPG. Both are quality and bulletproof cars that can last a long time.
@@RaitisRides thanks for your feedback! Making a list of possibilities when my work commuter car dies. I just dumped 1100 of work into it so hopefully a few more years (09 BMW with 163k miles). I'd rather not daily drive our new Suburban and park it in tight downtown parking garages so having a smaller commuter is nice.
@@Hdog56-o1f I’m loving it so far. I traded a 22 KiA forte GT for it. I loved the KIA but you can tell the Honda is a huge upgrade. The gas mileage is twice as much as the KIA but the power feels the same. So far so good.
No reason this should have low profile tires especially for a touring addition great idea the tire size where its more easy to get flats with the touring option who comes up with these choices?
Canada gets the heated steering wheel and rear heated seats and USB ports. Sad to see no rear ventilation or panoramic sunroof like EUDM or Asian market.
Awesome look at the updated hybrid Civic. Not the king. This is now a class of its own. What will compete with it. Not a current Corolla. Maybe the Accord. I guess a new Camry. Actually not a bad idea they cost about the same.

@@mrnarason 2025 Camry has better hybrid battery warranty (10 years or 150,000 miles vs 8 years or 100,000 miles for Honda).
Hey Joe, Chinese fan here. Keep up the amazing work! Your videos helped me choose my dream car.
Got the 2025 Sport Touring Hatchback Hybrid in Boost Blue a few weeks ago coming from a 2012 Honda Civic Ex. Absolutely in love with this car!

50 mpg is wild
The 2007 civic hybrid also has 50 mpg the tech isn’t new but if you really look into its cause the oil companies Colluding with car manufacturer to increase the consumption of gas in their cars and in return they get a pay day
I believe the tunnel in the back seat is where the exhaust pipe run through.
No kidding…🙄A quick look under the car would have answered the question.
Yes that’s correct. I’ve heard it also helps with the structural rigidity of the unibody.

Currently deciding on picking up either this or a Subaru Legacy Premium. You're *really* selling me on one of these! 😆
wow never knew you dont have to plug in a hybrid. Thanks Raiti.
You can with some, but they normally have a limited range, and when the battery is flat, you are lugging around a lot of dead weight. This means that on any longer journey, once the battery is out of charge, the fuel consumption is not very good. Plug-in hybrids are great if you make short journeys and have access to home charging, but for most people, a self-charging hybrid like this makes more sense.
How does it drive compared to the accord?
I test drove the accord. It’s a tiny bit slower but feels almost the same. Can’t go wrong on either. Accord is better if you have passengers in the rear always
@@Opposegaming Thanks for the response!
Hi Joe, like everything on the car except the front end. It looks someone that just got braces and it pushed their lips out. I’d still buy it though.
No lumbar support?
They are going to push the manual buyers into the Integra. I can’t believe they took away the rear passenger amenities and charged more. When I fill up my 2023 ST, the range says 440. I have gotten 40+mpg round trip several times with premium.
Civic hybrid vs a low level Camry in the same price range?
Disagree on the heads up display. I’ve had that for several years now and never use it. What I would LOVE to see is memory seat and a heated steering wheel. Never understood why manufacturers offer heated SW in other countries but not in the US
Joe you're awesome
Thanks for saying that George!
@@RaitisRides No problem.
I work in sales and bought this exact same car. At this price point, It checks every box for me. Is it perfect, nope. Is it very close, yes. Rear A/C is the only drawback and not getting the 9inch screen in the Hybrid sport or wireless Apple CarPlay. The top trim really just makes the most sense, If you are going hybrid. The 3k jump makes a significant difference in the Touring Hybrid. Leather seats, wireless Apple care play, 9inch screen, Bose system, power seats.
Is Bose better than JBL?
And the screen should’ve been 10.3 inches at least but yea
@ It is above average for a stock system. I like it enough to buy it the touring model. It is not worth dealing with aftermarket on these newer civics, especially with active noise canceling.
@@calebniederhofer6529 thought so, because I always add aftermarket speakers and an amp to my cars anyways thanks
@@texasboii5539 Me too buddy. I have a 4 channel JL amp and a DD audio 12 inch sub. I did not bother messing with it on the 25 Civic. Buy the touring model though. The Bose system, leather, wireless Apple car play is enough to justify 3k. I don’t like adding aftermarket amps and running them to stock head units either. It never seems to work 100% perfect in my experience. You have to use inline converters and running 4 channel wires is expensive.
@ been an infinity fan, but been thinking of trying JL speakers, don’t really care for the sub, as I’m fine with sound for now, may add a sub later down the line, either way just need LOC, and 4 channel amp and I should be good to go 👍🏼
Hey, if the Tesla model 3 is only 8 grand more, what would you realistically go with.
Hey Joe, When are you and Lori going to have your next Q & A Live session? it's been way to long!!
We are actually doing one this coming Tuesday @ 8:00PM ET
Yay!! I will be there!!
These really are great cars. All trim levels are well equipped and look fantastic. Can't beat the truly impressive balance with fuel economy/performance they achieved here.
Wondering if that tunnel is future proofing for an AWD version to come.
The tunnel on the floor is because hrv uses same platform which comes with awd optional.
Are you sure about that?
@@RaitisRides I think so ,I Google it....😬
The tunnel is there because the platform is shared with the AWD CR-V right?
Should I buy this or the accord? I’m undecided
Test drive both! Though the Honda Civic wins for the looks.
Depends. Me personally I think both look nice. However, the top trim accord is like 7k more expensive. I would just choose the Civic if you need a solid MPG car. The accord has the bigger screen and slightly larger with the rear vents.
Also the Accord is about a foot longer. This Civic just barely fits in my garage, if I had bought an Accord I would have had to rearrange some stuff.
Joe, I have the 2022 Sport touring Civic and really enjoy it. Trading it in for a 2025 Sport touring CRV. Is the half electronic dash a zonk or is it something that doesn't bother you? All other CRv's around the world have the 10 inch digital dash as does my civic and I really enjoy it
Would you buy one of these or a 2025 Camry hybrid for a daily driver? both around the same price (SE trim in Camry) and same MPG. Both are quality and bulletproof cars that can last a long time.
I would buy the Civic. I like the interior more and the way that it drives!
@@RaitisRides thanks for your feedback! Making a list of possibilities when my work commuter car dies. I just dumped 1100 of work into it so hopefully a few more years (09 BMW with 163k miles). I'd rather not daily drive our new Suburban and park it in tight downtown parking garages so having a smaller commuter is nice.
Hey Joe, when you get a chance trying to get a 2025 Toyota midsize hybrid all wheel drive
I'm looking for one as a hatch! Would you go for boost blue or rallye red???
Boost blue looks insanely godo
I actually bought this same one yesterday. Urban grey sport touring. It’s my daily
Oh wow this is wonderful!
How you liking it? Any regrets?
@@Hdog56-o1f I’m loving it so far. I traded a 22 KiA forte GT for it. I loved the KIA but you can tell the Honda is a huge upgrade. The gas mileage is twice as much as the KIA but the power feels the same. So far so good.
heck yeah! Obviously!
That is so great to hear Jonathan that you are digging this Civic Hybrid!
@@RaitisRides I like the hatchback better because of it's rear design!
No reason this should have low profile tires especially for a touring addition great idea the tire size where its more easy to get flats with the touring option who comes up with these choices?
33k and still no lumbar adjustment? WTH
Canada gets the heated steering wheel and rear heated seats and USB ports. Sad to see no rear ventilation or panoramic sunroof like EUDM or Asian market.
Do we actually get rear USB ports? The Honda website only mentions USB ports in the front
@@nathan518 You’re right, we also lost that in Canada that means
You get those things but you also pay for them, they're not free.
Loving this car so far. That gray is not for me though. I went with the pearl while sedan. It’s really nice with some black accents.
The honeycomb for the vents makes it impossible to attach things on it 😢
Honda Civic Hybrid for me
Awesome look at the updated hybrid Civic.
Not the king. This is now a class of its own. What will compete with it. Not a current Corolla. Maybe the Accord. I guess a new Camry. Actually not a bad idea they cost about the same.
Looks like Honda has done it yet again. It's between this and the new Accord; simply cannot lose either way.
