History/Overview
Last year, Honda rolled out an all-new, 11th-generation Honda Civic Hatchback with smoother styling and a slicker interior design than the outgoing 10th-gen model. This year, it carries over largely unchanged.
What’s New/Key Changes From Last Year
The only notable difference is the loss of the mid-level Sport model’s manual transmission option.
Available Trims
Honda offers the Civic Hatchback in LX, Sport, and Sport Touring trims. LX uses a 2.0L four-cylinder engine, while Sport and Sport Touring upgrade to a 1.5L turbo mill. LX and Sport Touring can be had with either a six-speed manual or a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT), while Sport is only available with the CVT.
Standard Features
LX trim comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, heated side mirrors, LED headlights, a part-digital gauge display, automatic A/C, passive keyless entry, heated front seats, eight-speaker audio, and a 7.0-inch touchscreen.
Standard safety kit includes automatic high beams, forward collision mitigation, lane departure warning, traffic sign recognition, adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, lane keeping assist, and traffic jam assist (CVT only).
Sport gets 18-inch wheels, a sunroof, dual-zone A/C, cloth/leatherette upholstery, and a heated steering wheel.
Sport Touring’s key additions are LED fog lights, rain-sensing wipers, a fully digital gauge cluster, an auto-dimming mirror, front and rear parking sensors, wireless phone charging, heated rear seats, leather upholstery, 12-speaker audio, and a 9.0-inch touchscreen with navigation.
Fuel Economy
Honda’s fuel consumption estimates are 8.0/6.2 L/100 km (city/highway) with the 2.0L engine and CVT, and 9.1/6.6 L/100 km with the stickshift. In turbo cars, the CVT is rated for 7.7/6.3 L/100 km, and the six-speed’s ranking is 8.5/6.3 L/100 km.
Competition
The Honda Civic hatch’s competitors include the Mazda3 Sport, Toyota Corolla hatchback, and Kia Forte5.
