What reviewers say
Reviewers agree the Civic is one of the best-driving family hatchbacks, with a smooth, economical hybrid system, a fine balance of ride and handling and a well-finished cabin. The common criticisms are limited rear headroom, noticeable road and tyre noise and a high price; Autocar and Parkers also found some of the safety and speed warnings irritating.
