2020 Honda Civic Test Drive Video Review

The Honda Civic sits atop the throne as the king of the compact car...or so we think. The competition has stepped up over the years and it's up to Honda to prove that it still reigns supreme. So, does the Civic still have what it takes to lead the pack? Let's find out.

Lane watch is great, I have it on my 2018 Civic EX sedan and I use it frequently to check traffic near me and prior to lane changes to right. I wish more cars had this feature.

I disagree on the center console, the entire configurable storage area including the recessed cupholders is sooo much more useful than the fixed alternatives on every other car.

[Roslynguy]

I honestly like the idea of the camera, there are way too many people who do not check their blind spots.

I had a rental 2020 Civic for a weekend, base model though. Comfortable, drove nicely, accelerated very well. Took me awhile to figure out the Android Auto setup, the info screen as well. If you have a cup with a handle the cupholders aren't ideal. Gas mileage is great. Don't need eco mode. Civic visibility was better than my midsize car but not as good as the SUV I drive now. Also harder to get in and out of (too low). Not crazy about part of the climate controls being onscreen. But it's still a good quality car, every car has some quirkiness to work out.

The center stack is actually very nice. Not sure why you're complaining about it. It looks clean because it's able to hide the cupholders. It's able to hide the usb cable underneath so you don't see it when you connect it to your phone, and the console is very customizable. You can remove trays/separators you don't want.

Thank you for the "ride quality" comments. I want to get 2nd car and this is one of the cars on my list for affordability, but I was afraid it might not be a smooth ride. This gets my hopes up until I take one for a test drive and see for myself.

I believe they're getting rid of lanewatch camera on the 2022 11th gen Civic. They already swapped out the camera for traditional blindspot monitoring on the hybrid Honda Insight. For those wondering, the lanewatch camera is only on the right side. For the left side, you have to look over your shoulder, so blindspot monitoring will give you a left-side warning for your blindspot.

Used this car to pass my drive test. Amazing car

Nice but imho, the seating position is way too low even at the high position. One of my friends has one and getting in and out is a pita.

Smh, you are complaining about the USB cord placement. Once you put a cord you don’t have to move it. Who takes there cord out every time they leave the car. Cords a $10, anyone driving that car can afford one. Stop Trying to find things that are wrong.

love the screen monitor not over size this is my one of my favorite

[dblissmn]

Who is the reviewer? It's pretty well done.

[pdlynch]

I like the back of the sedan way better (no breathing strip) and find the center stack super handy. I leave a cable tethered to my phone holder on the dash. To the right of the steering. At 6’1’’, the seat cuts into my leg. Other than that, it’s perfect. I bought an obus form, problem solved. Nissan is junk. Love the screen that doesn’t pop out like an iPad afterthought. New 2022 Civics have the iPad screen.

How is the visibility? I know the Mazda 3 especially after resign struggles significantly in this category. Don't get me wrong, the Mazda looks fantastic. The design is beautiful! But I'd rather have safety than beauty.

Saving for this car want it next year this time ❤❤❤!!

Do 2020 Honda civics have adaptive cruise control and lane assist like Honda CRVs have?

[pinoykidboxer]

Why does this look and feel a world of difference compared to a Civic released in Asia. Philippines in particular.

[juliust.gayagas]

I really like the exterior design of the current civic, but i'm just wondering how long the cvt last compare to traditional automatic.

[msbrownbeast]

Big blind spot from large A pillars/side mirrors. Lousy integrated tach/speedometer. The tach is very difficult to read with tiny little red needle.

I am wondering in the case of losing breaks while driving, in the past there was a Hand Break which helps you to stop the car mechanically by raising up the Hand Break bit by bit to stop the car gradually, so how the driver can do that with the Push button Emergency Break?
