2025 Honda Civic Hatchback Hybrid | First Drive

[@gavinparry5426]

Had mine in the UK since May 2023. Average across every gallon of Petrol has been 57.6mpg (5000 miles so far) Brilliant car! (Civic Advance)

[@DaveDDD]

57.6 mpg UK = 48 mpg US

[@johnnysilverhand1733]

What about steering rack and pump issues?

[@KNRS927]

Awesome review. Car looks really nice outside and inside. Price is wild though for a civic.

[@pi.actual]

It's all relative. Go shop for a new car and see what it cost for what you get. Corolla is slightly less but not as much of a car. Toyota will undoubtably introduce a new model but it won't be cheaper.

[@KNRS927]

@@pi.actual Even relative to Corolla, Elantra, K4, it’s expensive. I guess you have to see this as a Prius competitor as they referenced here more so than a Corolla competitor for it to make sense and in that regard, it might be a little nicer. Thing is though, the new Prius also looks nice, also makes near 200 horsepower, also has a nice interior, and it pioneered and perfected this technology too. Don’t get me wrong civic is a nice car, just tough for me to choose it against a Prius, Camry, or heck even accord when all are available for similar price and offer niceties not available on any civic.

[@pi.actual]

@@KNRS927 I bought the sedan a month ago and went through the same process. In the end some feature of one of them is going to hook you and you make a decision. That may be styling, price or just how you fit in it. We should just be happy we have so many choices.

[@KNRS927]

@@pi.actual Fair enough. I just guess its tough for me seeing a starting 30k Civic now when that's what a Camry and Accord start at, both being a class above.

[@pi.actual]

@@KNRS927 I looked at everything. If you want top trim level, which is what I wanted,, the Accord or Camry are $6k more. If you don't care about the trim then you make your choice based on what you want. I liked the Civic style and feel, I had no brand loyalty. I bought this to replace my 1991 Alfa Romeo 164S which has been a beautiful car but I can no longer find parts for it.

[@jrod237]

This is an awesome addition to the Civic fleet. I hope Honda considers consolidating their car lineup and makes room for what most people want such as a Si Hatch, ventilated seats, and an Accord Type R. Not asking for much! 😂

[@basstheangelo]

Si hatchback with a proper dual-clutch transmission would sell like hot pancakes.

[@jerbsherb4391]

That's what Acura is for. You are not gonna get those features in Honda's or it would make Acura's obsolete.

[@MrNgMichael]

Si Hatch would probably be the Integra.

[@stevebeecher1285]

Purchased a 2025 Touring Sport sedan 3 weeks ago. Love the car. Great mileage.

[@JEdmund81]

Love this car! Ticks a lot of boxes. Will definitely be considering it in the next year or so.

[@wranglerlife4ever42]

The omission of rear air vents and rear USB or even a 12v outlet is just silly. A $34k vehicle and what would these things really cost Honda to add? $100 maybe? So kids or adults in the back seat have no charge ports or air vents…..nice.

[@mikeb3216]

How will they survive?

[@joeray5394]

I agree, a huge miss.

[@joeray5394]

​@@mikeb3216creature comforts aren't about just surviving as I'm sure you know.

[@mikeb3216]

Sounds more like "I don't want to hear my spoiled children whine from the back seat" than anything else.

[@wranglerlife4ever42]

@@mikeb3216 If that’s your take….cool. But Hyundai and KIA give you rear air vents and charge ports. Heck, even Toyota does. My point was to bring up a big miss (omission) of some comfort features in a $34k vehicle that are missing. Maybe Honda will listen like they did for the 2025 Accord and added rear air vents to all trim levels.

[@jasonbui2040]

50 City 47 HWY 36 MPG Combined? I think the math is off...

[@Moondoggy1941]

My 98 Civic HX gets 37 MPG at 79 miles per hour on the freeway.

[@joseapar]

Nice catch. The real numbers from Honda's website are: 50 city/45 highway/48 combined mpg

[@pi.actual]

Regen setting does not auto reset when in Sport mode, it stays on your selected level.

[@vacric]

for world it's a hatchback for me it's a budget coupe ❤️

[@ryanfrisby7389]

Excellent review!

[@buklao]

31k for a civic? I know we are living with inflation and stuff but anyone just mind blown that it cost that much now?

[@C10Robert]

All this and Honda still won’t give you what you really want, an Si hatchback.

[@Unchainedmaple888]

I really hope Honda makes an HR-V hybrid soon and hopefully it's available in this gorgeous Boost Blue

[@TMM6900]

Wanting integra hybrid 😂

[@mattforst6591]

Hatches rule. I'm all over this. Can't believe VW discontinued the Golf in the US

[@Sdb38]

She is my favorite reviewer…could look and listen to her all day…such great authentic delivery and just the right amount of information ❤

[@ericcarson342]

The Accord Hybrid probably has a better ride. Nearing 40k I would rather reach for the Accord Hybrid. Probably a better value.

[@basstheangelo]

Too big and no hatch.

[@BowlerActuary]

@kbb, when compared to an Ioniq 5 in iPedal which is objectively pretty tame for regen breaking for EVs, how is the max regen setting in the civic compared to this? I know it doesn’t bring you to a stop but does it feel pretty strong or anywhere in the same realm?

[@wackit6756]

Starting at 4:03 sounds like ALOT of road noise. 🫤

[@destroyerofsimps6574]

Honda still hasn't improved noise levels on civics

[@EddaFredericks]

fixmyrideai AI fixes this. Hatchback gets hybrid treatment.

[@bobbyjones2112]

It has way more horsepower than a gas civic. HP is 200 and the regular gas engine civic It’s 150.

[@Alekk_A]

seems like the reviewer had no idea of this

[@RomanTymchyk]

There's a lot of wrong information presented here - don't know how this passed quality checks

[@jeretso]

I just want the base model. Upgraded rims and low profile tires are prone to rashes

[@mattforst6591]

I cannot wait to get one this fall.

[@ChiemyChanga]

you said 6 speed manual transmission which Honda civic no longer have after 2024 civic sports.

[@mtekeste]

50 mpg in the city and 47 mpg on the highway = 36mpg combined......Morty, this is a Willard, not a Wizard.

[@cabbagehead8082]

Great car

[@RetireearlyNYC]

Sweet looking

[@costive1]

Not accurate presenting of how the power train works unfortunately

[@agustincanales]

Is cool i love civics I prefer the manual transmission 🎉🎉🎉

[@daveed4475]

It does not have a CVT. Accurate technical info is important in car reviews.

[@joeray5394]

It doesn't have a transmission at all from what I understand.

[@Moondoggy1941]

Why is the blue different in the Honda Build website?

[@roundabout1419]

Sedan vs. hatch

[@cndlpwr]

She’s got a dodgers hat on. 😊

[@waitingforcivictyper]

How is the city and highway mileage at 50 and 47 respectively while the combined mileage is 36 mpg? How can an average of two numbers be lower than either of them ?

[@billyrock8305]

Topgun ride 💯 Let’s make this the new Accord and discontinue the old, boring and dull Accord. 👍

[@danielgreensides8463]

i want one

[@jprokell]

Add a rear air vent and cooled seats and I’m in.

[@cottagegymfun]

I LOVE this car. But I'm going EV for the next car. Why even with such great gas mileage and fun to drive? I'm sick sick sick of car maintenance. EVs maintenance frequencies are down to once every couple years vs. ICE at couple times a year. Just tired of it.

[@TMM6900]

No more music credit?

[@ksi689]

For the price, get the new camry

[@gsxellence]

Needs a manual and coupe body; ill take the Si no CVtragic needed.

[@JoKIA_-100]

It’s a great car but by the time you add all the additional charges this Civic is going to be very close to 40 grand. Honda must be confident consumers will fork over that kind of money for a Civic. I bought a new 2020 Civic EX hatch for 22,900 less than 4 years ago. Granted, this 2025 is a much better vehicle, but 17k better?

[@pi.actual]

If you are going to buy one you will compare the price, style and features to all of the competing 2025 makes and models, not to something from 4 years ago. The Corolla is slightly less but it is also less of a car.

[@The1SSGrant]

We’ve also had ridiculous inflation… no cars are going to be what they were 4 years ago, you can’t expect that, this is one of the consequences of inflation.

[@chimrichalds1422]

50 seconds in and she telling me why acceleration is used for. Moving on..

At $34k, you'll have a lot of cars to cross shop. That's steep for a civic

What a horrible review , wrong stats in multiple areas. 6 speed manual???? Starting price is wrong, stating the HP rating is same in base gas model. No wonder I don't subscribe to this channel. This video should be taken down and re-edited

[@RavnHood]

Disappointingly inaccurate review. There's no CVT. Regen brake settings reset at every speed. It's faster than the SI. The Prius didn't set a Guinness record, the driver did, and he has done so many times with different cars.

[@jimmacmurdo355]

Why is the mileage lower on the hatchback compared to the sedan?

It's also heavier. I'm sure that hatch isn't light, along with a 2 gallon bigger gas tank. Plus who knows what else.

WRONG! The engine is not new, it’s from the Accord hybrid. The Regeneration paddles are for braking the car, it’s not a setting. And the combined mpg is 48 miles not 36. I’m not sure you can trust anything said in this video.

[@eloneatmyshorts]

It’s too bad they dropped that great manual Sport Touring model.
