Autocar

Honda has pulled off this car with aplomb. It has no major weaknesses and all the elements work together to offer the dynamics, practicality and comfort that buyers of hatchbacks typically want - and more besides.

AutoExpress

The all-new, all-hybrid Honda Civic is an impressive piece of engineering that balances the brand's usual fun-to-drive feel and engineering integrity with a much improved interior, strong technology, fair practicality and great efficiency potential. In a market that's still incredibly crowded, Honda's individual approach could see it score well, undercutting PHEV rivals but offering stronger fuel economy than pure-petrol models.

Express & Star

Honda has really raised the Civic up a notch for this latest generation. Its hybrid setup is the Japanese firm's best yet, with its combination of performance, smoothness and efficiency really standing out.
