Cars like the civic are a rare item these days, a small non-suv that costs less than $40, 000. Good for Honda.

[nancydaniel]

Honda needs to put vents and chargers in for the back seat passengers

[davecarlson]

Great car apparently, but what’s with all the black wheels these days?

[benjochs]

Will these all have markups and be impossible to find? It’s a rarity I see a new Civic in the road since they were redone, I’m certain because they aren’t making very many of them or still operating in a “parts shortage” nearly 5 years later. Very interested in a hybrid and love the bold red!

[danam]

Soumds good. Look forward to the full review. Hope you do some comparison to similarly priced cars

[davidparkin]

Once you start hitting some of those Montreal potholes, you will start looking for a car with a more rugged and comfortable suspension.

[davidmanzi]

I wonder if they've addressed the road noise?

[fleuger]

It drives sporty with a very soft suspension? How do those two things go together? I must admit it is the nicest looking Civic in the last ten years.

[davidparkin]

Montreal, eh? Try driving the pothole covered Sources Boulevard and you will wish for something more like a Nissan Frontier or F150.

[Nancoman]

Honda still hasnt gotren these to dealers in any numbers. Kind of hard to test drive one, when there arent any.

It's unfortunate the Civic Hybrid isn't available with AWD. Plus the HRV isn't available with Hybrid technology and it's built in Mexico, not Canada. With labor cost differences, why is the HRV so expensive?

[tomsmith]

Is it reliable and durable and cost effective And if parts are needed can it be done quickly from factory And !!!! I own an old 2000 honda and its still road worthy soooo! It gets 26/31 hwy and has a 17 gal tank, 5 speed!! And i bet i spend like $50 maintenance a year! i keep all my records of service too.I"ve driven it 500 mile on a full tank many times

[joshuapiatt]

Love the new front end! If the Accord would adopt a more Butch front face like this I think that would set that car Worlds Apart🎉 Honda's really doing it pretty impressive and so is the new accord.

[roberthoyt]

When will the 12th gen Civic come out? 2025 for the 2026 MY?

[jakethepitador]

I will take the non-hybrid Si, with a 6 speed manual, thank you very much.

[JulianoWagner-ly]

EPA emissions based in CO² is ridiculous

[mathieucossette]

Cooool MotorWeek was in Montréal for the drive ! My province where I live 🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊😊.

[davideverett]

She said the cvt is SO good. Honda is having major problems with them.

[ErwinSchrodinger]

What's going to last longer, the turbo or the electric motor? Neighbor has a Acura RDX with the K23 turbo and it just hit 250k without a single issue. Granted, oil changes were done every 3500 - 5000 miles. I'm not for the CVT. Every CVT fluid change in Honda's are scary (9th generation Honda Accord and 2023 Honda Civic). So much metal contamination (but no where as bad as the Nissan JATCO's).

[lanesworld]

Hopefully they reduced the road and wind noise on the Civic. C'mon man....
