2020 Honda Civic Sport Touring

The 2020 Civic is a compact car available as a sedan, coupe, or hatchback, with a sporty character that sets it apart from the Corolla and Mazda3. The Civic is genuinely enjoyable to drive, with sharp steering and a composed chassis that make it a standout in its class. Inside, the Civic offers a spacious cabin and generous trunk space for the class, though the touchscreen interface can be finicky at times. Reliability is a Civic hallmark, and owners report few problems beyond occasional infotainment glitches. Stepping up to the Sport Touring from the standard Sport adds the hatchback body style, a more powerful engine, and a six-speed manual gearbox that the lesser trims don't offer. Its 1.5L I4 makes 180 horsepower and pairs with the six-speed manual, giving the Civic a lively, responsive feel that makes the most of its 32 mpg combined. The Sport Touring is the only hatchback trim with a center-exit exhaust, which gives it a distinctive look and a slightly more aggressive note.
