"Civic's solid road manners and excellent fuel economy are just what the doctor ordered." - Kelley Blue Book

The 2014 Honda Civic is powered by a 1.8L I-4 engine that kicks in 143 hp and 129 lb-ft of torque. It is hitched with a 5-speed manual tranmission for LX trim that can be upgraded to CVT too after some additional investment. While the rest get CVT as standard for them.

Do not expect an enthusiastic driving experience from the Honda Civic's FWD layout but the performance is enough for urban driving and occasional highway cruising. The engine remains calm and composed at all situations but gets stressed quickly when pushed hard.

Though one can't really comment on the Civic's 0-60 MPH and quarter-mile timing, it is one fine sedan that is capable to be generous in curbing that power dynamics. The pairs of 10.3-inch front vented disc and 7.9-inch rear drum brakes assist the ABS to maintain traction at the time of heavy braking. 

Among the rivals, the Mazda 3 is the most powerful one as it has 12 hp and 21 lb-ft better curve than the Civic despite being $600 expensive. Meanwhile, the Civic has a dominance of almost 11 hp over the Corolla itself but lags behind the Elantra by 2 hp.
