@Steezus Christ In Canada 🇨🇦 the regulations clearly stipulate that dealers must sell at MRSP plus tax . What some of them do, example VW , on some models, Gti or R , they would roll the car few hundred miles and then sell the unit as Used car at mrsp ++( market price).Reason is obviously very low numbers of units allocated for Canada due to so called " chip shortage and part shortage ". Also Kia and not only add some crazy dealer fees reason for some clients to file official complaints, in Alberta I think. As conclusion, this is the Dealers Market, but this mess won't last forever, especially due to high interest rates . At least in ON where I reside there are Dealers like Ford and GM building inventory on the lots, prices are high and combined with the high interest rates will make lot of them to offer incentives/ discounts.

@@jamisonz3365 Look closer. The sedan and hatchback chassis/bodies are different. You'll see some variances in legroom, wheelbase, track, and torsional rigidity. They're based on the same platform but all major manufacturers make the platforms scalable for different applications. Objectively, the noise levels are different as well. The hatchback truck area is open to the passenger space so any noise intrusion from rear wheels has no barrier to a passengers ears. Sedans trunk area is closed off reducing a common noise intrusion vector. I'll try to give an extreme example to make my point. Given the same platform and level of noise insulation, which would be quieter, stiffer, etc? Civic based minivan or civic based coupe? I would say coupe. On the spectrum, a sedan is closer to coupe and hatchback closer to minivan. IMO of course. Maybe we should break out the gauges and meters to really settle to question haha.

Once i saw pictures of the new Honda Accord i quickly sold my Civic Hatch Sport Touring. I am now back into a 2022 Honda Accord 2.0t Sport in Sonic Grey. This Accord still amazes me still till this day even though it came out in like 2018. It totally outshines the new Accord and the new Civic in my opinion. It is so fast! I still love the new Touring Sport Civic Hatch though. Just wished they tuned it to at least 200HP but i guess they saved that for the new Integra. I do not think i would ever go back to a CVT though. I wish all companies would stop making them. That is just my opinion. Now the new Type R outshines them all!

i've got a 2016 touring coupe......I wish they would bring back the coupes....Love my civic, with the 1.5 ltr turbo not one problem with 125000 miles...

A Civic that costs 32k... yikes. I blame the govt for adding more and more required crashworthiness and equipment, it is making new cars so expensive, that people are sticking with way older, way more dangerous cars. An Accord should be 32k. A civic should be 20-25k. The beauty of a Japanese car is that it is status neutral; it doesn't have flash, it allows people to bypass status conversations. Honda does make cheaper models, but doesn't import them to the USA. It's tragic that the Japanese have abandoned the original segment they conquered, which was inexpensive, reliable transportation. This is a well made vehicle, Honda is the best engineered Japanese brand, but when you add the reg fees and sales tax (almost 10% here in california), this would be 35k out the door, and unsustainable high price for consumers.

Sounds like a plan.

I have both. A 22 civic sport sedan and a 21 Corolla sport nightshade, both with cvt. I prefer the civic. Both are great cars however. The major difference is the civic is bigger and feels more premium but it also cost 4 or 5k more. The civic sport rides stiffer and handles better but the corolla is more comfortable on long drives and has less road noise. Engine wise they are both a naturally aspirated 2.0 and transmission wise they are both cvt however the corolla has a real first gear and feels quicker than the civic. The civic cvt feels smoother. Their mpg is exactly the same. The seats are softer in the corolla but I like the civic seats too. Interior wise the civic is a full step up in design and quality. Both base stereos suck. Overall the civic feels like a step up in class and size and the chassis just feels better. I rent these cars out so I would have chosen neither trim. If I bought one for myself it would either be an SI or a sport touring manual.

Hatchbacks are great when your moving big things. That wide door opening is essential with half sedan look. Perfect.

Looks great but $32k for a Civic? I paid far less than that for my 2017 GTI a few years ago. The only difference is mine didn't have a sunroof.

I got the Corolla hatch in the SE trim because I wanted a cheap and reliable manual. The Sport Civic with the 2.0L is naturally aspirated, but it's got less power than the Corolla, is direct injection only, and is still more expensive. Even then I still don't trust the 1.5L turbo in the higher trims. I love my lil Corolla and am very happy with it overall, but I will say, I'm envious of the hatch space in the Civic!

The civic 2.0 isn’t direct injection. It’s port injected.

No more manual option. Less total interior volume than the Civic hatch by 1sq ft and 3 less luggage volume.

@@xp50player The no manual thing does kind of suck. But the fact is people bitch about it, but nobody actually buys them in these types of cars. People DO want manuals (I have 3 myself) but nobody buys them to be cheap and efficient anymore. In a sports car I absolutely 100% need a manual, even in situations where the automatic option may be faster. But in a little putt putt civic, impreza, corolla, etc. Nobody cares about a manual because it will never be sporty and the reason people buy them is to get something cheap and efficient. That makes the CVT the better option. Subaru makes a far better CVT than honda these days. The NA engine in the subaru is also way more reliable than the high strung tiny little turbo engine in the hondas. The subaru will also get nearly the same MPG even while having AWD which no honda cars (not SUV or crossover) offer. All while costing a good deal less. You can keep the extra cubic foot of space. I dont need it to be a moving truck.

My go to for car reviews. You waste no time and tell us everything we need.

Fake news on the bigger brake rotors. Only the Si has an inch bigger, and the Type-R has 2 inches bigger. That heckblende taillight (look that up in your Funk & Wagnals) is a premium feature these days and provides a brake light unobscured by any potential spoiler choice.

Nice car. I think the silver trim around the doors should be all black. Just bought a '23 Corolla, so no going back now. For me, I'll take the lower power non turbo and all the extra miles it'll rack up - I didn't go with a 4 cylinder subcompact for the rubber burning HP.

I wouldn’t mind a Honda civic as my first car but I’ll go with the sport sedan with the HPD package in rallye red with black accents.

I think for the money, Id got for the Acura instead and get the manual transmission. A few thousand more but red leather interior is much nicer! The CVT is such a let down and I wish they would just die off already. They have no soul!

Honda with the hatchback is the easy choice for me and the hybrid version will be the runaway favorite. Toyota put zero passion in the design of the corolla. I'm even a Toyota Lexus guy.

I like it Joe, the design of it from the front end to the rear end. The inside is done well in my opinion as well so not many zonks at all but maybe a few small things.

The Integra is ugly inside and out; that’s my reason. The dash design is a lesser derivative of the Civic’s pure Zen design. It’s 37k to get a manual. The hatch liftover is higher.

I just wish the Civic Sport Hatch still was equipped with the 1.5T, like the 10th gen was. Honda deletes everything these days. It's really annoying. Make my Sport Touring a manual please. No lumbar adjustment is a definite "ZONK."

Crazy how the new civic is actually better than the new accord

It's a great car. I love everything about it except the high price and the spider hotel on the front dash.

I went with the 2023 Civic EX Sedan over the Sport Hatchback. For only $1,000 more, I got a sunroof, remote start, heated seats, blind spot monitoring, and the 1.5T engine. The 17 inch wheels provide a smoother and more comfortable ride compared to the 18 inch wheels. The sedan looks better and has the same amount of cargo space. The only advantage the hatch provides is a wider opening. Fuel economy is also better with the sedan at 42 highway/33city compared to the hatch at 37 highway/29 city.
