2023 Honda Civic Hatchback 1.5T 0-60 mph acceleration

2023 Honda Civic EX-L Hatchback FL2 0-60 in around 7.2 seconds

Launching a cvt is outrageous

[@75sRax]

what im sayin launching a cvt transmission slows your 0-60 time anyway

[@PapaA7145]

Looked at a CRV and chose to avoid the tiny turbo. It makes me think of a gerbil on crack running on the wheel until it dies. Couldn’t get past that image. Looked at a local dealer for a small GM car, same issue. RAV4 was first choice but was thousands more than Subaru. Pretty happy with the Forester Wilderness so far.

[@shatteredsquare]

just like a prius it goes "nnnooooooooooooo"

[@matty1053]

except a prius is faster.

Brake torquing CVT’s is what kills them. Even Honda said so themselves. Don’t do it if you want your 💩 to last

[@haroldbeauchamp3770]

As an executive warranty claims administrator I can attest I’ve approved and denied countless cvt warranty claims on Honda. My advice would be to change your transmission fluid every 30k miles and avoid harsh, or abrupt change in acceleration.

CVT left the chat

Damn those first 3 mphs are brutally slow

[@mrmotionman69]

that's just me brake torquing it, it starts moving at around 4 seconds

[@tlf361]

@@mrmotionman69 I know... I'm not watching the tach lol

first 3 ? it went from 1,8,15 and 20 in a matter of a second

[@Userxxx840]

How do you like the CVT? Is it smooth and not jerky?

[@mrmotionman69]

it's ok for normal driving, kinda sucks if you want to drive fast because it takes long to wind up and the turbo lag from the 1.5t is bad, but it gets the job done

[@cessnafun5385]

The CVT in my 2014 outback has the same kind of problem for performance driving, unless you’re in manual mode Otherwise, just driving around town and commuting for 110k miles now, it has never had issues. People who say all CVT’s are garbage are the kind of people who never do any of their own research into things.

[@mikenone4077]

@@cessnafun5385 They still ruin the driving experience by having the weird rubber band effect which many people hate and it feels weird coming from a older 4 speed auto car from the past. Personally, i don't like the feeling which is why i avoided honda and toyota and bought a mazda instead which still uses a traditional 6 speed automatic.

you must drive a fye ass car to be hating on another like this

Why did you buy the automatic over the manual?

Is there an acord 2.0T manuel?

[@OrganicFoxes]

holy, ive never seen a cvt launched before 😭 if i did that in my jatco cvt it would prob take a year off its life span 💀💀

[@mrmotionman69]

honda cvt's hate being launched too, i just don't really care lol

[@huntaaa4]

why didn't it simulate gears ? and how do you get it to anyway

[@ryster2220]

Low gear

[@Eriksome]

why did the tachometer needle just freeze at 6k rpm while the car kept going faster?

It's a hybrid

do you live under a rock and not know what a CVT is? Theyve literally been around since the 2000s

[@parfumextraitfan7453]

1234 miles lmao Just noticed that

[@mikenone4077]

probably a rental lol don't buy a used one lol.

[@user-po3ku5qj4m]

CVT is the most disgusting transmission in history

[@Video-co1eu]

Why do you move from s to l, wouldn't it slow down the acceleration?

[@mrmotionman69]

L helps keep it in its powerband instead of fake shifting in S mode, which makes it noticeably slower

[@kinggze5271]

in "L" is crazy and rip cvt

[@hudsonriversirens]

Why is the L crazy?

[@kinggze5271]

Brake boosting a CVT isn't worth it lol. Not only it damages it but you lose time.

[@mrmotionman69]

i shaved off 0.4 seconds by brake boosting, and idc about the cvt lol

[@HiAnthonyA]

Launching a CVT is a horrible decision

[@alexg9727]

in theory it wouldnt do much damage. Would just cause the torque converter to heat up more. CVT still uses a wet clutch torque converter

[@hihi-bx2bo]

@@alexg9727exactly , it’s not ideal to launch a CVT but it isn’t bad to do every once in a while all these people are saying like he put it in neutral revved and put it in drive

[@vincinuge]

sorry Im kinda dumb, when you say ''launch'' does that mean max power from a standing start or revving while on brake?

[@hihi-bx2bo]

@@vincinuge since this car has no real launch control, it’ll just be like holding a rev while on the brake for a couple seconds to build boost especially for turbocharged cars

[@Bigwatchman28]

About 8 seconds

7.2-7.4 according to stopwatch
