Cons

  • Poor trunk space

The 2015 Honda Civic adds new SE trim with the same 143 hp power performance and 41 MPG peak economy for a base MSRP of $18,490.

Overview


The 2015 Honda Civic comes a carryover model but with extended trim lineup after slotting the all-new SE configuration. It hits the track with its 143 hp with a fuel economy of up to 41 MPG for a price starting at an MSRP of $18,490. And its LX, EX, HF, and EX-L have been kept intact to deliver that myriad of driving virtues for which they are know. 

The Honda Civic has continued with its decent 12.5 cu-ft trunk capacity, however, it does not have easy going as the rivals like the Toyota Corolla, Mazda 3, and Hyundai Elantra stand next to it. Also, its sedan version is on a voyage with Civic's hybrid and coupe editions that have been priced at $25,570 and $21,225 respectively.

Engine and Performance
8.0/10


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

The 2015 Honda Civic Sedan comes with a 1.8L Inline-4 engine that facilitates the power output of 143hp and provides a torque of 129lb-ft. It is mated to either 5-speed manual or CVT in the standard FWD layout. But that manual transmission is for LX trim only.

In terms of dynamics, the engine ensures that the ride in the Honda Civic is smooth and comfortable without feeling too harsh on the bumps. The handling of the car is quite steady and offers a stable grip on the road, kudos to its multi-link rear and front strut suspensions. 

There is no official data on the Civic's 0-60 MPH acceleration and top speed. Its top speed is also in the shades of gray. However, one can expect a  decent braking distance from 70-0 MPH with its 10.3-inch front vented disc and 7.9-inch rear drum brakes that work together with ABS and Brake Assist.

Interior
7.8/10


"The Civic still offers up excellent interior space." - Kelley Blue Book

The interior of the 2015 Honda Civic Sedan is a mixed feeling as one does not get leather upholstery for any of the trims except the range-topping EX-L. All the other configurations settle with cloth-surfaced seats with manual adjustability and hard plastic.

The Honda appears generous as it brings in heated front seat for the EX-L edition along with 8-way power adjustability for driver's end. As far cargo capacity is concerned, a trunk of 12.5 cu-ft has been given in the rear too for your loading and unloading.

Exterior
8.5/10


The exteriors of the 2015 Honda Civic can be best described as modern, and recent tweaks have given it a bit more panache. The look is slightly chiseled, with more sculpted flanks and an upward-raked character line. But the roofline, stance, and footprint all make the car instantly recognizable as a Civic. 

Moreover, it adds a black honeycomb-mesh grille above the lower bumper while ebing styled in multiple cleatcoat exterior colors. And it cruises effortlessly on its 15-inch steel, 15-inch alloy, 16-inch alloy, and 17-inch alloy wheels as per trim specifics

Going by the dimensions, the Mazda 3 is almost 2-inch wider and 200 lbs heavier than the Civic that might impact the overall dynamics in a negative sense for the former. In the meantime, both Elantr and Civic seem to be in line with each other as per their design philosophy.
