2022 Honda Civic Hatchback

The 2022 Honda Civic hatchback is the 11th version of Honda's family hatchback is hybrid-only

The Honda Civic is about as familiar as cars get. It's existed in one form or another for the last 50 years, and in that time, over 27.5 million of them have been sold worldwide.

This new 11th-generation version of the Civic, however, might not be so familiar as previous versions. Gone are the overly fussy looks in favour of a much cleaner, more simple deign, but more of a game-changer is the fact that the new Civic is the first one that's only available as a petrol-electric hybrid.

Two electric motors combined with a 2.0-litre petrol engine to deliver 180 horsepower and average fuel economy of up to 60mpg. That's all very well in theory, but how does it perform in real life, and for that matter, how does it perform in the other important areas of practicality, quality, technology, comfort, refinement, equipment and cost-effectiveness?

In this CarGurus UK video review, Deputy Editor Ivan Aistrop travels to the car's international launch in Madrid, Spain to answer those very questions.

I would be interested what's it like on the UK roads

[andrewmoorhouse]

I like the more restrained design direction. Interior looks classy too. Looks well worth considering.

[brianrocks]

I'm liking the new design direction from Honda!

[gibs]

Seems to be a really good car -consistently god reviews generally and no weak areas and good reliability likely -beats a Golf, A Class & Co.

[bondjamesbond]

Love it. Well done Honda. The CIVIC is the best in class.

[pasiutrial]

Love it to bits! Will be my first brand new car.

[RudyVisuals]

Current 9th gen owner and I'm definitely going to be test driving one of these once they're on UK roads. Great review guys!

[loyalbear]

I've currently have a mk8 Golf R like the look of this tho.... top of the list for my next car :)

[rayambrose]

Just tried the new civic
. I have a 10th gen civic and after driving the new car my order went in. So quiet, so smooth and so safe. Plus 60 mpg. My only criticism is it looks a little bland..

[danielramon]

It seems, again, a great car...far away from many others with loads of marketing ads behind!

[neilburns]

I do like the fact that you get a good sized back windscreen without any silly things like a spoiler in the way or anything else to hamper your vision out the rear.

[honestjohn]

That review is the best on ytube hands down, very good, cheers

[GG]

Looks so much better than the last version (which looked like an 8yr old designed it).

Title: 11th gen of the Honda Civic is hybrid only
Me in the US: 👁👄👁

[clewis]

Great video . I didn’t realise there is a mode where engine directly drives the wheel as thought engine runs a generator which in turn dives the wheels via electric motors.

What sort of way is that to close the bonnet of a car. Do you want to put a dent in it?

[ant]

I've bought myself one. The roads where I live at the south end of the Iberian peninsula very quite widely too, with the car performing brilliantly. I drive longish distances - ~150mi return, so I'm rather looking forward to seeing how this performs. Around town, I got ~150mpg (2.1L/100km) in eco mode whilst on the test drive where I live.

I am itching to upgrade from my 2015 civic to this one. With post 2015 models Honda really messed up with Civic's exterior design. Now it has stripped off those confusing elements and look cleaner (a little too simplistic though). Honda should have found a way to include Battery pack without compromising boot space.. thats a little disappointing. But critics apart, there is no other car than a civic in my wildest dream, as in last 7 years and 80000 kms, I have never visited a workshop other than for regular services. Respect to Honda for making such solid machines!!

[athollmcnicoll]

At long range it looks just like any other of its class, a hatchback. But getting up close and personal, it looks improved and classy, not dissimilar to American breeds. And as it still relies on petrol as its main get up and go, should be cheaper than others with a stronger motive to go green and use only EV modes.

[wilsonroofer]

I just want a civic si with about 250bhp fully loaded. Including sunroof, full surround system inc sub, heated and ventilated seats with adjustable suspension. Is this too much to ask
