I've had mine since October. Advance Model. All I can say it is probably the best car you can buy for the money. It drives superb, handles corners very well, comfortable, brilliant tech, super sound system, spacious and family friendly. btw is 184BHP not 160 as you mentioned. I get 425 miles to a full tank (40ltr tank). Mostly in EV mode when doing local runs, but stays on EV upto 60mph. Anything above that it will be combination of EV and engine or just engine. But the whole change over is unnoticable - superb engineering from Honda. I dont notice any lag when placing foot on the throttle. It just goes! In sports mode the car dumps the battery power to the motor much faster for that super fast pickup. If anyone is on the fence for this Civic- dont be. You wont get any car that is even close for its price/spec/reliability.

[@TotallyEV]

Thanks for sharing. The kW figure is correct, sourced from Honda's site. 186 is the max Nm of torque available from the engine on its own, while the electric motor combines to provide 315nm as stated in the video. However, you're correct, with the hp figure incorrectly converted, which should be 181hp (135 kW)

[@clewis5220]

Thanks for confirming pick up is quick as that was my concern from video - don’t want to find the same lag as I get with my turbo diesel lol

[@actionreplay8235]

@@clewis5220 pickup is instant. No matter which drive mode you are in. This review is the first i've seen to say throttle response has some sort of lag. Some other areas of the video I dont agree with either. I've driven over a 1000 miles in mine for last 2 months so have a good understanding of how the car behaves.

[@HumbleBearcat]

How is the driving dynamics on the highway at 75mph? How does it drive going on a long incline at 70 mph? Is it struggling to keep up speed or is it effortless?

[@greymark420]

Currently own a FK8. Just ordered the Advance trim, very impressed with the comfort, handling and performance not to mention the mpg. Interior is far superior to my FK8 updated materials and panoramic sunroof plus all the other luxuries. Nice review.

[@PremiumUserUltra]

Cool post a video please I love those

[@ant647448336]

I've had mine (Sports trim) in Gibraltar for 13 months and covered 44500km. Excellent fuel economy and the best I've got out of a tank is 896.1km on 38.32L, with 2 longer trips at an average of 90km/h due to speed limits. The trip was mostly flat with the odd steep incline and decline. Still catches me out when I boot it in sports mode and leaves me with a smile on my face. Average fuel economy is 4.4L/100km or around 60mpg, with my best being 66mpg. I can drive home (some steep downhills) which is around 4km in EV mode alone.

Saw this review and so arranged a test drive, ordered one in Sport trim at the end of the test drive, I was that impressed! The Advance trim is great, BUT I 'm not fussed about leather seats, don't really need a sunroof of any description ,so that meant c £3k more for a BOSE stereo system in effect - hence Sport trim won.

Excellent Review! it's not that expensive when compared to rivals. 10 years ago this would have been an accord in terms of size.

[@TotallyEV]

Thank you, glad you liked it! Indeed, it's not expensive over PHEV alternatives, but rather when compared to pure petrol or diesel vehicles, buyers might be put off by the higher price tag. If it (and rivals) were cheaper, it would be a no-brainer for a lot of individuals.

Regenerative braking level is saved in sports mode and indicated on the dashboard. It's being reset in normal end eco modes as it's pretty strong contrary to what the tester says and could destabilize the car for an unprepared driver while manouvering on icy road

[@TotallyEV]

That's very specific conditions, and isn't the reason why it's not present in said modes. It's also not harsh in the slightest vs other EVs

[@mikepl7155]

@@TotallyEV So what's the reason?

[@TotallyEV]

From Honda UK: So in Normal or Econ modes, the brake regen will reset to normal when you press on the accelerator. This is to enable more efficient coasting which maximises mpg. In Sport mode, the regen mode doesn’t reset so if you set it to maximum, it will stay there. This is to maximise the energy recovery as to ensure the batteries have as much charge as possible, for a sportier drive.

[@alanplayford]

I have now finally got my red Civic Advance - and I love it! Only a few niggles, and I DO mean a few! But it is a pleasure to drive, responsive, tells you everything you need to know, and the displays eentually turn out to be intuitive! Great car, Honda! Well done!

[@TotallyEV]

That's great to hear that for sharing! What are the issues you've faced with it?

[@alanplayford]

@@TotallyEV Minor ones, honestly! Was led to believe it had a walkaway auto-locking system? It doesn't! And even Honda UK said it does! Also, KZbin videos talk about the "Home" button on the steering wheel, but that doesn't appear on the Advance model! Biggest gripe I guess is that the Auto-brake-hold isn't remembered or doesn't come on as standard.

[@TotallyEV]

Thanks for sharing! In relation to the auto lock, might there be the option through the infotainment system or instrument cluster? Might be worth checking the manual just in case it's hidden in a sub-menu.

[@alanplayford]

@@TotallyEV Well, both me and the dealer's salesmen have looked at the manuals and no mention there. Exploring the various scrolled options don't reveal anything either. Just strange that Honda UK says its standard feature but nobody seems to be able to activaye it? :-) The investigation continues.

I ordered Advanced trim and should arrive in May… I like mostly everything in this car but I wish it had a 2KW battery, 360 degree cameras, less road noise… I tested this car in any way possible and if you sit in the back you will get a small headache if you don t turn on that beautiful sound system. I spend a lot of time thinking if I should order the Civic or a Model3. I hope I have made a good choice even if there are very different cars. I ordered mine in that beautiful gray.

In Romania they give 10 years warranty for the hybryd motor with no millage limit. And 5 years or 150.000 km for the hole vehicule. I belive is the same in UK. I say that should be more than enaugh for most people.

[@TotallyEV]

We didn't notice it being stored, where did you gather this info from?

[@greymark420]

@@TotallyEV In the manual which is available on the Honda website. Unless i miss read it this is the quote. " If you pull back the paddle selector, the rate of deceleration will change and the stage along with M will appear in the gauge. The deceleration stage will not cancel automatically while SPORT mode is ON. When you want to cancel the deceleration paddle selector, turn the SPORT mode OFF, or pull the (+ selector (right side) for a few seconds. When cancelled, deceleration stage in the gauge disappears".

[@TotallyEV]

Interesting, can't recall it working that way, nor why it would operate that way in Sport mode vs the other modes - guess we'll need to see if an owner of the vehicle experiences it or not, as our press vehicle has now gone back to Honda!

[@andrewfinkelsteintennis1915]

@TotallyEV in sports mode it saves the regen setting. I own one. I also find the regen quite strong....it has 5 settings and comfortably allows for one pedal driving at urban speeds. As for "kickdown"......it has no gearbox so that's a misleading term. The throttle map does change between modes.....in sport the response is absolutely instant, like a typical ev. If you don't need that torque you can select eco or normal mode for a more sedate drive. Also there is Android auto wireless....the settings are available with a quick search on KZbin.

[@TotallyEV]

@@andrewfinkelsteintennis1915 it's certainly nowhere near one-pedal driving, but thanks for sharing about Sports mode - will ask Honda UK to see why it behaves that way in said mode only. As for the kick-down - it's a good term to explain the shift in power, and one that people will understand. Indeed there's no gearbox. And as for Android Auto, it certainly wasn't available, of course, if you go via third-party solutions, that's not keeping in with what the vehicle itself supports.

[@rafikshahnazarian7632]

Great review 👍👍

[@TotallyEV]

[@pkakira88]

The point of the regen brakes auto resting is you don't kill your gas mileage, you really are supposed to treat it like downshifting when you're slowing down and stopping. It's the same system from the last gen Insight and can add an additional 10mpg if done properly.

[@TotallyEV]

Of course, but then equally fully electric vehicles use it to recoup energy back into the battery pack - the more the merrier.

I'd say the Corolla hatch drives almost as well as the base Civic. The Corolla sedan doesn't drive near as well. Never driven a GR Corolla, but I'd suspect it's on par with a Civic SI, but faster. The Civic is available with a regular non-hybrid 2.0L N/A engine as well, so the Corolla isn't simpler. The Corolla is probably slightly more reliable, but we're talking about the difference between best and second best, probably shouldn't be the deciding factor for most people.

Only problem is the warranty 3 years instead of 5 with Toyota and 8 years on the battery or up to 90k miles, Toyota 15 years! And the service charges are higher than Toyota.
