2022 Honda Civic RS Review | Behind the Wheel

[@EguchiGzone]

Our family car is still with us for 21yrs, hopefully I'd get to get a new one once expenses stabilized especially now during this pandemic. The new civic is more of a mild mannered gent now, it looks calm but underneath it's suave demeanor it still has the athletic build of it's youth. I wont even mind the base model now with that 1.5 turbo. Thanks for the review.

[@argelm.4706]

I'm lovin' this civic. Minimalist but elegant. A more humble looking civic than the previous gen

[@grovereyd]

The frontend reminds me of the 3rd or 4th gen civic. Nice.

[@jumongwu]

bet na bet ko din bagong look ng civic compared to previous

[@fsrd9674]

Couldnt agree more...

[@ErnestMarvinEsteban]

Yes. Masyadong polarizing yung last gen’s design. This one look’s more expensive lalo in person tbh.

[@j.lucido7692]

kami naman baliktad, mas gusto namin yung luma, kaya yung binili namin instead of this..

[@melvinrimorin7840]

I have to say, that is probably the best designed cabin you have ever reviewed. None of this too-futuristic-looking, buttons-everywhere configurations. I love the abundance of TACTILE buttons and knobs so you can easily adjust settings, even while driving (carefully of course). And a flat dashboard with no weird shapes. In terms of driving experience, the Civic is probably THE nameplate. I remember in the 90s (or is it early 2000s) where everyone wants one kasi "matulin" or "pang karera", and they were lowered to almost kiss the ground. 😅 On the other hand, as an MPV fan, I'm not into low ground clearances. But hey, sometimes that's why you get a sedan, for the sheer spirited driving experience. And in my opinion, for decades now, that is the Civic experience. 😊 Another great review, Autodeal! Cheers!

[@ErnestMarvinEsteban]

this pretty much sums up my experience of driving the new civic. Interior is designed for "humans". Everything is very easy to use and understand. And the driving... it's just too good. Handling is the best I've ever experienced. Parang when you drive you always feel like your racing with other cars (if that makes any sense).

[@melvinrimorin7840]

@@ErnestMarvinEsteban I don't race and the only sedan I drove is a Swift, which also handles well but I'm sure it makes sense to enthusiast like yourself. 😉 Thanks for sharing your experience brother!

[@hitenmitsurugi3225]

The look of the 11th gen is really growing on me. If you're into sleek, elegant vibe, this might be the best Civic yet.

[@karlikot]

This or the mazda 3 sportsback

[@hypnos4545]

@@karlikot try to test drive both. Civic for me because of bigger interior cabin and driving experience. Mazda is very tight at the rear. But exterior looks and premium interior materials go to the 3.

[@kixnimrod6407]

@@karlikot we got the m3 mhybrid sedan. HB of mazda is not good. Rear seats have a very limited space for leg room. But the sedan is ok. They forgot to mention, 360cam of mazda3 is way way better than this honda civic.

[@ErnestMarvinEsteban]

photos and videos really doesn't do the car justice. The car looks so much better in person. Caco is right, there is a certain timelessness on its design. Mature in a good way.

[@gregtudanca.]

Civic's used to be affordable-ish. The price increase is just wow. Still an awesome car though.

[@SadBheeseChurger]

[@fightnight14]

I'm getting a similar car here in the US but the hatchback version because it looks so sexy it doesn't even look like a hatch at first glance.

[@gianallen1]

watching you guys review all these cars makes me feel like that I was in the car itself

Well I'm surprised to see my country (Pakistan 🇵🇰) clip being used in autodeal .... Great 😃... Big fan of your channel....

[@RampartPh]

the ek and the fd still reigns supreme in the civic looks dept. but the tech and the bells & whistles of the 11th gen is king.

[@lepoldbuttersstotch]

Nice review! Cool to see the differences between the RS and the Si that we have in Canada/USA. Few differences: Different front nose Michelin Pilot Sports tires vs. Goodyear Eagle Sport A/S (or optional Eagle F1 in the US) RS has the same rear spoiler Same engine but a different tune 175hp vs 200hp Interior leather while leather only comes on Touring trim in NA market, Si has different seats No wireless Android Auto while NA has both wireless CarPlay and wireless AA Rear seat air vents, while NA has rear seat charging ports (in Canada) Trunk arms have covers (NA models don't and I want that part) I'm assuming you don't need heated seats or steering wheels in Philippines hah U.S. model loses a lot of the features (mirror turn indicators, fog lamps, seat heaters, wireless charger) No matter where you are in the world, Civics are great, fun cars and have always been. I've had 3 different generations of Civics now and will continue to buy them :)

[@williamsaad6833]

They also have LaneWatch instead of blind spot monitoring and also don’t have that stupid auto start stop feature

[@lepoldbuttersstotch]

@@williamsaad6833 lane watch is more useful because you can see how close you are to the curb or other low objects without adjusting the mirrors. Auto stop start is annoying, thanks to the US EPA

[@williamsaad6833]

@@lepoldbuttersstotch Cound't agree more myself. I have a 10th gen Si and love LaneWatch. If I bought an 11th gen, I would try to pull out the fuse or remove that feature.

[@wiver1676]

Door handles and shark fin too are blacked out compared to my NA Si which are body colored

Not afford. City lang tinype ko, but nakita ko si Caco so worth to watch😆

[@usmantariq7997]

3:26 Loved how you used footage from Pakistan based KZbin channel, Pakwheels to showcase older Civics.

[@Jai-oc3xy]

It looks like the youthful look of the previous civic goes to work and then the result is a more serious and mature design. Na stress yata at nagseryoso na ung new look ni civic.

[@jeanalex8992]

I love the fact that even the base model 2022 Civic gets the faster 1.5L Turbocharged engine as opposed to the last generation where it was exclusive to the RS Model.. With that said though, there is less of a reason to splurge for the RS because they have the same engine now; also considering the price, I think the Mazda 3 would be a better choice IMO.. At 1.3M PHP, I'd choose the base Civic; at 1.6M, I'd choose the Mazda 3..

[@elijahrecto1007]

At that price point, you can get a Mazda 3 M hybrid already which is a very good car. The only issue with Mazda 3 are the lack of units. You need to wait months to have one.

[@zachfox1027]

I wish the si would appear here in ph. It would totally attract classic honda civic lovers out there

[@hafizmakiglalis4380]

[@blackcyborg009]

It depends if the Thailand factory will produce one. Otherwise if not, then the 2.0 liter Hybrid variant would be more likely.

[@mramaiahusbandtv4752]

i like the previous gen it feels like a super sporty and awsome look, this one make you business man.

[@sonofromel]

There is something about this look that reminds me of the old Civics.

[@youngtotoy]

much better looking than the previous gen.

[@pierreaugustevinluan]

Everyone's reviewing a beloved nameplate in the Philippines, the 2022 Honda Civic. The model received a total exterior refresh along with a bunch of features baked in. The 11th-generation Civic still uses the potent 1.5-liter four-cylinder turbo motor that gave the 2016 Civic its legs on the highway and its performance in a straight line. Now with a more mature look, let's see how this new model fares on the roads of Metro Manila. But in Japan, they have Hatchbacks for the 2022 Honda Civic.

[@steerthatwheel353]

Previous gen was too youthful. This one's too grown up.

[@AdrianPhilipMiciano]

I'll be happy myself if I got to own one myself. This new civic give off an Excutive vibe compare to the previous generation, I prefer this new one better. The exterior and interior looks minimalist, clean and elegant ain't it, especially the center console. Correct me if I'm wrong, ain't the tyres 18" in RS? From the back of the car, the tail lamp reminds of Toyota Vios right? And Sir Caco & team, I wish you guys could do reviews on Malaysia local car, Proton & Perodua, especially Proton Saga or Iriz and Perodua Myvi or Bezza. Hope I can meet you guys one day. 🥰

[@ErnestMarvinEsteban]

This. Why is everyone saying that they’d rather buy an SUV for the price. I mean the driving experience on both type is vastly different. If you truly value comfort, driving experience and ease of driving, you wouldn’t even consider buying a huge ass car like an SUV.

The CVT gives you a great balance between fuel efficiency and performance. It does 0-100 in around 7secs and will EASILY do 15km/l on average. I don't think there's any other car in the PH market that can do both.

[@montesa35]

can be much more fuel efficient that Vios CVT. Toyota's CVT is still sourced from Aisin which is less reliable than Honda's.
