2017 Honda Civic Sedan: Full Review | Touring, EX-L, EX-T, EX & LX

[@HavingAGreenDay]

We picked this for our family car. It has a great safety rating, safety features, is comfortable, and has a high end appearance.

[@superwangwei3630]

This gen civic is such a bargain for its price, not mentioning the resell value down the road. Great review.

[@LookToGod]

superwangwei3630 owning this civic is an investment

[@jceess]

Seriously, the touring trim is better equipped than the base model of most luxury cars and will cost 10x less to maintain.

[@alishmagar1908]

What's the price of this car?

[@motorcitymanman7711]

@@jceess Plan on spending $1,500 to have the intake decarbonized in about 50,000 miles.....direct injection engines have this problem, Hondas 1.5T is one of them......also issues with fuel going into the oil which causes oil dilution

[@mustasheolll2020]

My uncle has a 2018 Corolla but honestly the civic of the same year is miles ahead in terms of driving experience.

[@nicholejones3876]

I love my EX-T! Definitely recommend to everyone who says they want to get a new car!

[@JulezWinnfield]

I just bought this as a third car for my wife and I. I'm really impressed by the level of tech and amenities for such an affordable price. The turbo engine has surprising performance and fuel economy.

[@JulezWinnfield]

I'm having problems with the infotainment system. The local Honda dealership had to do two software updates already. Mechanically the car is great to drive.

[@soleil3gs]

I just bought an EX-T yesterday and boy is this car awesome! So much car for the price!

[@seansullivan7131]

Just bought the ex-l. Love it. Never had a cvt transmission but it shifts just like a regular automatic. I wouldn't even know the difference. For an economy car it is very quick.

[@motorcitymanman7711]

If you want that weak CVT trans to last, change the fluid every 30,000 miles, dont go by what your manual says it won't last.

[@motionmusic2638]

great review. this might be the best car in the class right now

[@CarConfections]

Thanks!

[@jeffmabry7775]

I just purchased a 2017 Honda Civic EX Sedan back in November. So far I love my new Civic. I did test drive the Civic EX and EX-T. At the end of the day, I've decided to go with the EX. What's nice about the LX and EX Civic trims is that you have the option to add some Honda Accessories. For example if you want fog lights on your Civic LX or EX, a better spoiler that you like over the lip spoiler that the Civic Touring, EX-L and EX-T have to offer, some good all season floor mats and other stuff, no problem, Honda Accessories has you covered. I did have a wing spoiler, fog light kit, illuminated door sill trim, cargo net and all season high wall floor mats added to my 2017 Civic EX. I bought all my accessories online at College Hills Honda. I had College Hills Honda install the fog light kit and I had Honda of Mansfield install the wing spoiler and illuminated door sill trim. I installed the cargo net my self.

[@JulezWinnfield]

Do you still have your Civic?

[@easfgman4687]

this is the only car i would buy. i love my civic and as long as they make em, ill buy em. these cars are worth their weight in gold and basically maintenance free well after u pay it off. The first 70,000 all u need is oil changes, brakes, and tires. (stock tires wore down pretty fast imo)

Any problems? I think ill be buying one with 46k miles on it this week.

[@TodayWithDustin]

Wow! Great review guys! The LX is definitely my perfect fit!

[@CarConfections]

Thanks Dustin! Its funny how you always like the base models because whenever we review a base trim car everyone else yells at us for doing it! Guess most people don't feel the same as you haha!

[@TodayWithDustin]

I just don't see a need in all the "luxury" features. I'm a simple guy who wants a simple car to love for the make and quality of it. I like base model car reviews because it shows me what the car has to offer without me actually going to the dealer and having to deal with multiple salesmen wanting to sell me the car. I mean people like you guys who do reviews like this and on the base models it helps me out a lot for the car decisions I make or help my friends make. I'm definitely old school and have an old soul but only a youngin! So thank you guys despite the yelled people do for the base model reviews.

[@CarConfections]

Dustin Hart Yeah definitely make sense! That's exactly why we try to talk and show all the trims so that we have something for everyone! ☺

[@TodayWithDustin]

Well thank you guys so much! I really do like that you do that. You're the only one who covers all the trims! I look forward to all your reviews because of that.

[@jazz5895]

I just switched from a Chevy spark to one of these and I was able to find one with only 8,400 miles on it!

[@Tom51993]

That black/ivory interior is fire, hoping they bring it back for the 11th gen. Prefer it over the black on black in my '19 civic sedan lx, but I'm not knocking it tho. Just would be awesome to have a choice between the two.

[@slikdude12592]

Leather-wrapped is on (or at least possible on) the EX-T as well. Touch-sensitive volume on steering wheel, however, doesn't seem to be on the LX, EX, or EX-T.

just picked up a manual ex-t and still have no idea what fuel to use. non-sport mode turbo, manual recommends 87, but turbo says 91...?

[@Blackandwhitecat-u9v]

Best looking subcompact car

[@CarConfections]

I know we've been bringing you lots of luxury car reviews recently, but what are your opinions on the more affordable 2017 Honda Civic? Which would you prefer, the Civic, the refreshed Corolla or the all-new Elantra? Give us your thoughts below!

[@williamhumphrey5573]

Car Confections I think it's a good car and after watching the review the materials look nice so maybe best in class

[@TodayWithDustin]

Car Confections I would probably go with the Elantra to be honest. I like the looks of the Civic but the list of things I don't like on the Elantra is shorter then the Corolla or Civic! Great review anyways!

[@mikebereck7641]

What about the Mazda3?

[@mallikasapkota9104]

I bought the touring, and have one question. How can I pause the song from buttons without touching the screen?

[@kingpin461]

Great review there. Does it have auto side mirror fold?

[@CarConfections]

Thanks! And no, but they can manually fold if needed

[@fadagrace1503]

I’m thinking of buying this car. But I don’t know if it has steering shift paddle for the sport mode. I really love cars with shift pads. I love the body build and the key start option. I also love the side mirror camera option. It’s nice and also with the fuel economy. I hope it doesn’t disappoint me.

[@KevDeSilva]

At 8:25 you switched to a crv, why?

[@traciedubbe7057]

Does the EX model have turn signal lights in the side mirrors?

[@CarConfections]

Unfortunately, no. LED turn signals in the mirrors come on only the Touring trim. Hope this helps!

[@michaelt3308]

How bout the AC?

[@howardpower]

By far it’s way more superior than the new corolla. Possibly the best in its class.

[@zakbdz]

i thought a piece of hair was on my screen lol well played

[@ONESIMPLYDOES]

[@TheJonbonesjones]

Is the ex-t worth the price jump from the ex?

[@davidjames4583]

my wallet told me that I had to go with the EX ....no regrets.....the base 2.0 is also very fun to drive ..i-VTEC.....If Honda would have used their 6-speed automatic instead of their CVT my car would be perfect.....but I did take the EX-T for a test drive...awesome car also...you won't be settling if you go with the EX..I traded in my 13 Civic Ex and it still was definitely an upgrade...

[@nightwolfbick]

Most people would say yes and stop at EX- T. All the dealers I've spoken said that the EX - L (A build higher than Ex- T) is mainly for the leather.

[@ArmandoFL]

TheJonbonesjones yes it is worth it !!!

[@johnwestergaard1421]

I think so, the turbo is very fun to drive and has great acceleration combined with exceptional gas mileage.

[@tjcunt3860]

@@davidjames4583 lx has a 6 speed

[@BladeRunningsince]

What's a fairly good offer for a 2017 honda civic touring?

[@Zone5Aviation]

Obviously this is for an overseas range of Civics but something seem odd about the transmission details here. The Touring and EX-T models are stated as having a 1.5L Turbo charged engine with a 6 Speed CVT Transmission. In New Zealand where I live, I've just taken delivery of a Civic Sport Sedan RS (similar to the Touring but without lane departure or the anti collision system) which has the 1.5L Turbo engine but with a 7 Speed CVT Transmission, 1 extra speed setting. Has the American model CVT got a lower spec CVT?

[@23Guitardood]

all CVTs are 1 speed... not sure what you might be referring to, but it's not a CVT

Does the lane departure warning and the cruise control distance sensing come standard on all trims?

[@Airbunnie11]

Also, does the rubber mats come standard in all trims? Thanks!

[@CarConfections]

Hey Ryan! Lane departure alert and adaptive cruise control are standard on only the Touring. They are part of the optional Honda Sensing Suite for the other trims ($1,000). The rubber mats are a dealer accessory and they were $155 on our model. Thanks for watching!
