Is the 2022 Honda Civic Sport a BETTER sedan than a Mazda 3 or Corolla XSE?

The ALL NEW Civic is here and Honda has made some big changes for the new 2022. On the Outside of the Civic Sport features unique 18in wheels, LED lighting, and polished aluminum exhaust tip. On the inside you will be greeted to a thick wrapped leather steering wheel, 7in infotainment system, gauge cluster from the Accord, and cloth seating with leather bolsters. Under the hood is a 2.0L inline-4 that produces 158HP & mated to a CVT transmission. Is the 2022 Honda Civic Sport a BETTER sedan than a Mazda 3 or Corolla XSE?

Joe I just wanna say man your videos have helped me take my mind off all the terrible s**t going on in the world and in my life as well. The consistency and comedy you deliver in every single video is enthralling, and as someone who dreams of driving cars for a living, I aspire to be like you. Keep it up man, looking forward to the day that Raiti’s Rides becomes the biggest car review channel.

Joe my man!! Red paint and black wheels are my favorite combo. Looks good on anything!👑

[CoolKidJTM]

Hey Joe, the new Civic looks great. Keep up the amazing videos man!

Just got a Rallye Red one yesterday and Im really enjoying it so far. Wasnt looking for a fast car and it made sense economically. I dont need crazy tech, but the car comes with enough features and the screens look great. The door sensors for the key is wild! It drives phenomenal and has a clean look. I like the interior, feels comfy and has a different design. So far I feel like I made a good choice.

Had a '15 LX before and it had no problems, fan for life!

Loved how you could see the curvature of the earth during that driving impression at the end

I bought one in meteorite grey metallic and added 25% tint, I absolutely love it has a sleek, classy look with a touch of sporty rides very smooth and plenty comfortable as well

[wilchambers]

I subscribe to alot of car reviewers but Joe is killing it with entertainment! Skateboard just passed us, generator to power your phone. I laugh everytime I watch his car reviews he's hilarious!

[angelarriaga]

This guy always gives great reviews 💯👌🏽

[UltimateBeast]

Not going to lie when I saw this at first I didn’t like the front end at all, but when I saw it in person doesn’t look that bad at all and if you put the HPD package on it, it looks absolutely amazing I can’t wait for people to start tuning them and adding their own style to them . Would also love to see an Si and Type R on this updated body style

[manifestSD]

Why I love this channel ... it's either 'good news' or 'even better news'. Can confirm the solid beauty of the Mazda3 sedan grille and fascia. The new Civic Sport wheels, though, gorgeous.

[edgardomartinez]

Just bought one in white. From all the civics I’ve seen and owned three 1995 Civic, 2018 Civic Si, and 2019 Civic Type r…..so far this new generation looks awesome. Basic, no need to replace the wheels or add body kits to it. Easy to drive, turns are sharp. I think Honda is listening (about time!) Everything is great. If you want something basic and clean 2022 Civic Sport is your car.

I really like the Civic and the redesign, however, I also think it looks like a smaller version of the Accord

[modernsportscarsofarizona]

I decided on this to replace my dearly departed Mazda 3 Sport. Love the space and styling even more than the Corolla. For real performance I have sport bikes. Just needed a good looking and reliable A to B car with modern safety tech. Great review as always.

[cacheshier]

Joe I bought a new car a week ago after a lot of research, but now I am hooked on Raiti's Rides and just keep tuning in for more anyway...LOL

[edsantos]

Dude congrats 🍾 you the best in the “Bidnezz” God bless you bro! You’re like the gold standard for car reviews surpassing Doug Demuro (and that’s one of my favorites)

[jeffb.]

I'm confused why the customer couldn't have taken the black one for a spin instead of the red one - but then I remembered that Red = +50 HP

[dylanw]

This is a nice car, but I am waiting for the hotter Si! I am hoping that the high performance models get unique interior trims to make it look a little more premium. I am surprised that they took the fog lights out of the sport trim. I actually like a good set of fog lights, mainly because you can switch to yellows for inclement weather and keep your LED headlights.

Also, this may not be as agressive looking as the previous gen, but this actually a very cohesive and clean design and I really like it.

[apacheizm]

Thanks for posting, great video.. I just picked mine up yesterday. Sonic grey..

[paulr]

I just bought the 2022 civic touring in red from a dealer in Daytona and they had to drive to Tampa for it! I love this car so much and already have 1, 000 miles on it!

[davidp]

I've been looking really hard at the new Civic. Your review will help me make a good decision, Joe.
