2019 Honda Civic LX Full Review - It Finally Has Honda Sensing

[@secordman]

Always good to get a lower end review. LX is what I would buy.

[@robynjones3636]

I just recently bought a 2019 Honda Civic Sedan LX and I love it. It's a huge upgrade. Very pleased 👍

Be mindful about transmission especially if it’s automatic. If it’s manual you should be fine

i love this car, got it in march, after 2 months of driving it, i am so in love with it...(: especially i love dressing it up with chrome and carbon fiber (:

[@GeneralSirDouglasMcA]

It’s unfortunate the 6 speed only comes in four colors. I want the LX trim because it doesn’t have push start/smart entry system. Less stuff to tear up years down the road.

[@videogames2297]

I just leased the lx and let me tell you I love the car had a 2001 honda accord this is a HUGE upgrade I agree with the downside of the blind spot they shoulda added it but still a solid car you also forgot to talk about sports mode it has some kick for a honda handles really well and is so smooth the lane assist is great too I could go on forever about this car I love my baby lol

Thats nice! Its good that you review Civic 2.0L option. Most of car reviews are 1.5L turbo! Not everyone likes the high end model. Is there any manual transmission for 2.0 engine?

[@AwholvNation]

Yes the LX has a manual. The 2.0 is a much more proven engine as its the same basic K20 engine that they have used forever now and can be made very powerful.

[@txbeauty9039]

I just got the LX in the Lava color, it's definitely a head turner.

[@gearedtowardsautomotive]

Awesome 👏

[@raging_carnut]

I was lucky to buy a 2017 LX in 2020 with 17k miles. I'm glad all that safety stuff wasn't standard. My windshield has been hit and replaced one time and amended again. Had it come with all those features i would've paid a pretty penny. Also. Since I don't have the collision sensing i was able to install aftermarket fog lights with no problem.

[@sasha.t3737]

Interesting. That makes sense. It depends on what you value

[@raging_carnut]

@@sasha.t3737 don't get me wrong. I do value safety but it cost too much sometimes deems it totalled.

I have a 2017 LX, added the Honda sensing package to it. I really like the chrome and the black front. Canadian models does have the touch screen. Love the car

[@michaelsuzio7861]

Honda Civic has basically looked the same every year from 12-19

[@ivanl2004]

The best wheels covers are on older fusion like 2010 model.. the steel wheels were made like cover shape so when it is on you can't tell they are wheel covers

[@jawharris]

Your video said removing the chrome in front was sportier, and adding the chrome to the back was sportier. I envy your extreme positiveness. I think it is optimistic to call this a refresh. I have the 18, same color, I wouldn't be able to tell the difference. While I wish I had the Honda Sensing, my car was 17.8k, I wouldn't have wanted to pay 3k for it, my goal was to buy a car that is a good value. I paid cash and didn't need gap insurance and didn't get any extended maintenance or seat cleaning insurance or plastic covers for the front, etc. The Civic feels like it is more much expensive than one of the cheapest cars in the US.

Happened to me twice too, all 4 windows roll down 1/4. I think I must have press and hold some keys on the fob. Manual did not mention any of this feature. It has good and bad, what if you accidentally did it when you park your car and the rain came, your car could be all wet....

[@HandsONreviews4u]

I love what you said about the flat tire OPTION 😮😅. You get a flat Honda comes out and changes the tire then when you thought you were going home. Honda tows you to Honda Dealership?? Stupid !! Just another excuse to pull more money out of your pocket with a possible stupid find and an additional charge. 🤣🤣Yeah right. I will change my own tire and stay clear of the expensive Honda dealership. Use AAA towing and my mechanic if need be. There are ALWAYS STRINGS ATTACHED to a new car owner. Even phony orange cards to simulate a recall which aren't even legit just to get one back into the dealership. Freaking never ends

[@drummer7557]

Test drove it. ended up buying a GMC Terrain for just a bit more, AWD, best infotainment center you can find, turbo, 5 USB ports, great looking, etc. Just hope it lasts, I didn't go with Honda because they have went down hill in the last 3 years or so.

Are CVTs as prone to breaking as some people say they are? And if so is there a car under 21000 that is similar to the civic or elantra without a CVT or IVT?

[@jessicamumby282]

What breaks in Nissan and other brands CVT's is the belt that attaches to the two pulleys in the transmission. It dries out and wears over time. Honda has engineered their belt out of Stainless Steel to avoid the same issues. They have been using it in their cars for 9 years and in the last 2 years we haven't had a single transmission job in our Honda dealership so something is working with their design.
