Summary

Recommended. Hondas radical new offering certainly has the looks to shake up the family hatchback segment - but can it provide a driving experience to match?

Styling

Top marks to Honda for shaking up the dowdy image of previous Civics - this one looks brilliant

Handling

Responsive cornering, plenty of grip and predictable behaviour on the limit.

Comfort

Refined at cruising speeds, although the drivers seat lacks upper back support for longer journeys and the diesel engine is loud.

Quality

Honda has pushed the boat out with the Civics brilliantly designed cabin and high-quality materials.

Performance

Basic 1.4 litre engine lacks urge - the 1.8 litre petrol is far better, although it still needs to be revved hard for brisk progress. 2.2 litre diesel is impressively rapid but lacks refinement.

Roominess

Front seat occupants enjoy plenty of room - and rear seat passengers will also find decent legroom. Luggage space is good by segment standards.

Costs

Frugal engines and whats likely to be well-contained depreciation ensure the Civic remains, as always, a sensible investment. 12,500 mile service intervals are short compared to some rivals.

Value

The basic S version lacks standard aircon although the higher reaches of the range benefit from decent equipment levels. Pricing is competitive.

Stereo

The stereo offers good sound definition, although some of the buttons are a bit fiddly to operate. The satnav is good value, but can be easily confused.

Added Extras

Air-Bag, Electric Windows
