2025 Honda Civic Hybrid Review

The 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid introduces a brand-new hybrid powertrain to the beloved Civic lineup, marking a significant advancement for this iconic model. Known for its longstanding reputation for affordability, quality, and efficiency, the Civic has now evolved with the inclusion of a hybrid option. This new model features a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with two electric motors, delivering a combined 200 horsepower and 233 lb-ft of torque. Exclusively front-wheel drive through a continuously variable transmission, it joins the CR-V and Accord hybrids in Honda's lineup. This exciting addition solidifies the Civic's position as a top choice in the compact sedan market.

Corolla is not even in the same league as the Civic now.

Toyota is still sleeping on the Corolla

Not a CVT, Honda called it an eCVT in a massive marketing fail. Electric motors directly drive the wheels except at higher speeds when engine couples directly to front wheels.

Rest in peace corolla and Prius. The civic has ostensibly terminated both of them from existence

I have a 2022 EX that I absolutely LOVE. I literally have no idea why anyone would pay $40K for a car when the Civic is absolutely perfect and luxurious enough. It's fun to drive, it's nice to be in, and I know it will last me for a long time. I will say that I like the front end of the 2025s a little better - I wish Honda had started there with the 11th Gen Civic.

I have the Civic hybrid hatchback bought in the Uk in 2023. The salon model is not available in the UK After 12 months of owning this car it a lovely car to drive and economy is really good. around town the economy is brilliant. I prefer the styling of my model compared to this updated 2025 model

With the better performance and impact on the environment, and also given the fact that the 2.0 non-hybrid might be more thirsty, the $2k premium is totally worth it.

Silver looks great on this car, with all the black trim and fancy silver wheels. Mature and classy. Very Audi A4ish. Blue looks good too, but probably gets dirty real easily.

Prius is tempting, but the Honda hybrid feels like it’s back to Honda’s roots for fun and reliability which they had lost for the last twenty years. 200hp feels like a winner.

[richardsmith]

Everyone calls it a CVT, it isn’t really but never mind.

The Honda Civic is by far in a class of its own. The only way Toyota can compete with this is to compare it to the Camry. Not a bad idea considering the price of the cars are similar. I lean towards the Civic for its looks and handling. The Toyota for the hybrid system.

for the price of a sport touring hybrid is that better for daily driving as far as mpg and NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) vs. 2025 Toyota Camry XLE - Im currently cross shopping. I want a car that gets around 50mpg - comfortable quiet driving - my commute is ~50 miles combined daily mix of highway and city.

[PreludeSon]

This is a nice alternative to Toyota options....Toyota is not cheap these days

[iceman.]

Please stop calling it CVT, it is not.

[MaxRadin]

I like the smaller size compared to an Accord for city driving, but that front end looks really vulnerable for parking damage.

[TheBeaverWorxProduction]

Should i go for civic hybrid or mazda cx30?

[mattforst]

Anyone know when the hatch will hit dealerships ?

[stuff]

I honestly don’t see what everyone is talking about with this being a corolla killer. The corolla starts at around 24, and the civic is SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive at 28-29.

I mean this competes more with the camry and prius than it does corolla. Of course I would expect a completely better car with the price that this civic starts with.

What would be more worthy of praise is if this was priced closer to 25-26

You did not talk about the spare tire, or the absence of one. On the road away from home and you have a flat tire, what do you do? I tried to use a devise in my hybrid 2018 Accord and was not successful; had to call a tow truck; he took me to a shop to repair the flat. Am I the only one who sees this as an issue?

I'm leaning towards Prius but this is a close second choice.

Does it still feature selling your driving data to insurance companies?
