2020 Honda Civic Si HPT Coupe - POV Test Drive

[@jimmylim5015]

Clutch feels so light like a feather-day and night difference from the WRX heavy clutch and long throws

[@parispierre10]

I’m looking to getting an si because I wanna daily a manual. Is going with si the best option?

[@jimmylim5015]

@@parispierre10 I think it's amazing and fun to drive but after awhile you may get bored with the lackluster speed, and I'm thinking of trading it in for a Type R

[@tylerdowd]

Awesome car. Love my 2018 SI coupe! Can't beat it for the price

[@Stormtrooper-oc4vn]

Yeah majority of the people who hate either never drove one or still just think the 9th gen is superior in handling when companies have proved this 10th gen is better then the accord 2.0t on track and older si models period.

it's a one year deal while the next gen car is prepared

Yeah, but they’re only halting it for one year, as they’re redesigning the Civic for 2022!

[@ryleighsunshine]

I have a 2017 civic si I f***ing love it. I love driving it so so much that I’ve gotten into a bad habit during the shutdowns of 2020/2021 of going for long drives out to the coast almost daily to escape the anxiety from being stuck at home. I think today instead I’ll have a joint put on some headphones and watch this Thank you!

[@RexMuffin]

How is that a bad habbit? Enjoy your car mate!!

[@zacharyjones8766]

I wish Honda brings back VTEC! It was more raw, high revving, natural, and fun!

They still have it.

Got one a month ago. No complaints. Beat all other 4 bangers that wanted to race.

[@itsdefinitelynotdave]

Don't get me wrong this car has rev hang for sure, but I've adjusted to it in my 2019. It's actually helpful for driving the car in a relaxed manner, and once you're in the flow of shifting quickly you don't notice it. Just don't rev the engine freely because you'll cringe at how slowly the revs fall 🙃

Logitech shifter, hilarious rev hang, wimply 1.5L out of a vacuum cleaner, and no VTEC to top it all off. Honda, what are you doing? I'd put this junk on hiatus, too! 😂

[@pranavp386]

It's a turbo right?

[@frshkidg]

Hope this comment turns into an interesting discussion because it seems a lot of people love this generation of the Si despite all the cons and I want to know why.

[@windingroadmagazine]

@@frshkidg Yup, its still a very fun car to drive, and its a great value for the amount of tech that comes standard.

[@V1ralB1ack]

@@frshkidg Because ktuner. Use ktuner and without any mods you can get rid of the rev hang and add power and flatten the torque curve a bit. Add intake and down pipes and you can get a serious boost in power. It also has dual tune options for when you want to just cruise and when you want full power. The dual tune switches when you press the eco button. The interior is also very very nice and it drives excellent. The grip is good and it's very drivable. Some cars are fast but are so unpleasant and have so many quirks it's frustrating and a compromise. The only compromise to this is... You don't get to go super fast so you don't get tickets and that's very livable.

[@RCXDerp]

@@V1ralB1ack Yeah I just turned off rev hang and added a few psi into sport mode. Drives more like a nimble GTI than an old Si though.

[@academiaengineering5136]

Wow I’m surprised how the civic si launches and pulls. It’s launch is more smoother than the type r and in the civic si there’s no first gear grind as in the type r. Also the way the civic si pulls after 60 mph and it performs like a type r and also it grips in the corners perfectly like the type r. 👍🏼

[@RexMuffin]

So it's a type R then?

[@johnnyninecocks]

@@RexMuffin the type R is faster and better for racing but the Si is better as a daily driver

[@cryxbaby2250]

Glove box check. Arm rest check. Engine check. Alright good to go

The engine seems loud..🤔 anyways the Si is fun to drive, i have no issue on rev hang bc i shift like a grandpa

[@chrispyfc3]

2020 si has fake engine noise pumped into the cabin :/, not sure why Honda would ever do that but the car stock isn't very loud at all

[@alipone8501]

Nice one

[@CHAD-pj8rx]

I've been in the market for a 2018 Honda Civic si and was wondering what type of fuel you put in it. I know the owner's manual states that the car should receive premium, but can it take regular? Furthermore, I think the car has a knock sensor that changes the ignition timing caused by the difference in the fuel quality. Still, I would like to eliminate knocking altogether to preserve the engine.

[@riley1733]

I have a 2020 Si Coupe and I put supreme gas in it.

I want to like this car but I can't get over the stupid fake noise that should be a menu option to disable and the rev hang. FFS Honda, either make it a manual with auto rev match, or put in the CVT. The rev hang is garbage. I don't want to buy a new car then have to fix half the features.

[@Wellington_srt10]

I hope I'm wrong and that's just the audio, but that engine doesn't seem to have a good sound, sounds actually bad. Well nothing that some exhaust cutouts can't fix. I hope.

[@royaljester9918]

What you hear is the fake engine sound that Honda put through the speakers. There is a microphone near the engine and the computer alters the sound and pushes it through the speakers to make it sound more "sporty". I do believe that the dealership can turn it off.
