2019 Honda Civic Sport

The 2019 Civic is Honda's compact car, offered as a sedan, coupe, or hatchback to suit different tastes. It squares off against the Toyota Corolla, Mazda3, and Volkswagen Golf, with a sportier feel than most. The Civic handles with a crispness that makes daily drives enjoyable, and the available manual gearbox adds engagement. Inside, the cabin feels well-built for the class, with a modern dashboard and generous rear legroom for a compact. The Sport coupe gives you the manual gearbox and 18-inch wheels the EX lacks, but skips the sunroof and dual-zone climate control to keep the price lower. Its 2.0L I4 makes 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque, routed through a six-speed manual that's a pleasure to row through the gates. The Sport-tuned suspension with stiffer front bar and unique dampers gives it a sharper feel than the LX, though the ride is firmer as a result.
