Pros: Cool and well-made interior; very spacious; powerful and efficient turbo engine; well-balanced driving dynamics; instant-classic Type R Cons: Pricey starting point; no hybrid (yet); rudimentary standard touchscreen; no auto option for Si Let’s cut to the chase: The 2024 Honda Civic lineup represents our top compact car choice, and it’s really not a close race. The sedan and hatchback are so well-rounded and well-executed, you could easily have more money to spend on a car and still wind up with a Civic. It has the passenger and cargo space to be a reasonable alternative to a midsize sedan or compact SUV. The range-topping Touring rivals entry-level luxury cars (including the mechanically related Acura Integra) for interior ambiance, equipment and quality. The sport-tuned Civic Si and instant-classic Civic Type R can do double duty as weekend sports cars and daily drivers. There’s even a Civic Hybrid likely to be introduced later in the year for those seeking max fuel economy. It's also worth pointing out that the 2024 Civic sedan and hatchback look great and boast an ultra-cool interior. In particular, the full-width honeycomb air vents still look special after three years and inspiring copy-cat looks throughout the Honda lineup. We also like that last year’s reborn Type R is a little less boy-racery in appearance despite keeping the wing and red interior (though the Si’s own red bits and pieces can come off as a bit tacky). So, from an objective and subjective perspective, the 2024 Civic lineup delivers. One of our complaints last year, a high price of entry, has been mitigated by the return of the base LX but still remains higher than those of rivals. Those with higher budgets, however, should find the Civic stands skyscraper-tall against a dwindling number of competitors including the Mazda3, Hyundai Elantra, Kia Forte, Nissan Sentra and Toyota Corolla, plus Volkswagen’s Jetta, GTI and Golf R. Interior & Technology   |   Passenger & Cargo Space   |   Performance & Fuel Economy What it's like to drive   |   Pricing & Trim Levels   |   Crash Ratings & Safety Features What's new for 2024? The base LX trim level reappears after taking last year off. This effectively lowers the Civic’s base price. What are the Civic interior and in-car technology like? In a segment filled with surprisingly impressive interiors, the 2024 Civic interior delivers even in the base Sport trim level with cloth seats and the base infotainment system (pictured in the large picture above). This is still an economy car, so there's plenty of hard plastic about (center console, door sills), but what you see and touch most come together in a tasteful, modern design that looks (and feels) like it belongs in a much pricier car. There's more than a whiff of Audi right down to the way the buttons and knobs click satisfyingly. We also have to call out the dash-width air vents, with their honeycomb openings, metallic finish and clever knob controllers (they're outlined in red in the Civic Si). They're so great, Audi probably …
