You get used to that 2 tier display. People are not comfortable with it at first because nobody else does that. Once you get used to I can almost guarantee you will like it.
I just bought a used 2015 Honda civic exl priced $14999. with today used car it was abit pricy but its 2022 all used cars are mark up high, for me this was a good deal on a used car with 124 thousand miles on it but Honda engine can last you over 300 thousand miles if you takecare of the Maintenace thats how good the engines are design to do but How cool is that to find a gem of a car with all the bells and whistles, Bluetooth, side and backup camera, navigation system comfy seats, sunroof, alloy 17 wheels much more. Compare to a new 2022 Toyota corolla or newer Honda civic price near $30 grand I got a bargain deal. My Honda drives smooth, and with today gas prices the civic 1.8 engine will save me tons of money with today gasoline prices. Happy dude here.
@@Albert-xl3nx about 3 years you could've pay around $ 3 or 5 grand for a used car now they mark up higher due to a demand on used cars instead of buying new.
I love my Honda civic :) I drove a 2006 no problems and only needed to pay 26 dollars for a full tank. Now I drive a 2015 ex-l . And for a civic it's pretty luxurious. I got all black leather interior an I love the dash board and stuff. Last of its kind for that, that's why I bought it over a 2017 model. Car is fun and worth every penny you spend! It's not a sports car. More like economy vehicle for commuting allot, and looks tidy. Plus you can watch porn with a hdmi connection on touch screen while stuck in traffic.... Lol. I love my civic!!!
Exactly. Engine was designed to maximize fuel consumption. Only on good weather days and at certain ratios do I feel a kick when I floor it. I find it super laggy on highway when it's humid. I just love it's reliability and peace of mind I get driving it.
God I hope not...please do not watch porn while driving! Sounds like an accident waiting to happen. There’s a time and place for some things. Good grief. 🤦♀️ I really hope you’re joking 😒
Why is it no one can average good gas mileage?? I have a 2002 Honda Civic EX with a 5 speed manual. The last time I filled up I averaged 38 on my tank. I usually get around 40. I do mixed driving with a 60% highway and 40% in town. I really don't understand how Everyman Driver Car Reviews was in ECON the whole week and got 24mpg...? PS. Love this channel! Keep up the great work sir!
I really enjoy your camera work on your reviews. Great quality and angles. This one in particular shows a great wide shot from the windshield. Gives a great view of the interior. A lot of reviewers just show their face talking about the car as they drive, I like to see the vehicle, mostly. ;)
Dave always measures rear seat room (using a side view) and that is much appreciated. Most car reviewers don't do that, which is surprising considering how important rear seat room is to most of us.
Great review! Just what I needed.... I am planning to buy a Civic as daily driver. I already have a 2000 CR-V 4WD, so a sedan will be more than enough for me.
I had a 2015 Civic EX-L and for me it was a nice small fuel efficient luxury sports car. I got 24 mpg in the city and 40 on the hwy and that's driving in the mountains of east Tennessee. Unfortunately I had a head on collision with a girl driving a 2015 Ford F150 while texting and it totaled my beautiful car. The Civic is very, very safe though, I survived without a scratch. I think the safety aspect and awesome fuel economy is the main reason I purchased a 2019 Honda Insight EX hybrid which is basically a Civic and I get 60 - 65 mpg on a regular basis.
it's crazy how comfortable the Civic's seats are. Honda really does a great job with the Civic seats and IMO are actually better than any of their other seats including the Accord. i went shopping around to other brands when looking to replace my Civic and found everything else to be crap...everything. the Corolla - crap. all of the US brands had crap seats. came back to looking at the new Civic and the seats are just phenomenal. nice and wide, good thigh support. it's like a polar opposite from the Subaru Impreza i tried which has seats that look like they are for a 4 year old. A+ Honda with your seats
I bought the EX recently. It suits all of my personal needs perfectly. It's peppy enough and the ride is comfortable. As other said, no volume knob is a downside, but if that's the biggest complaint, then this car is doing just fine.

Car is rated at 30/39 mpg and you were running around town in Econ mode and averaged 23!! Maybe you forgot to release the parking brake. Something wrong...very wrong!
Yep, I was getting the same thing as Dave driving normally. I just got a 2015 EX a few weeks ago and could only squeeze 27 out of it by feather tapping the pedal when accelerating, and going the speed limit on the highway. Can't get 25 out of it driving in town. Pretty disappointed in that regard. Hoping it improves as I continue to break the engine in. Otherwise it's great.
Everyman Driver Car Reviews I noticed it was cold there in the video. Was it cold the whole week it was being test driven? I know cold temps can have a detrimental effect on fuel economy. That, and if the engine was broken in. Not sure if the car was new-new or if it has racked up some miles on the odometer.
I never liked how Honda implemented the lane watch system. It looks like an afterthought. They could have blended the camera in with the mirror better than that. Otherwise good little car. Test drove a base one a year ago and I was pleased.
I actually just purchased a used 2015 civic ex, as a 6'1 i actually fit pretry comfortably in this. Only after a few days my only gripe is no volume knob
Looks like that indent may help a bit. my friend has a 2013 Civic and I am 6'2" and have trouble with hitting my head on his ceiling. I don't recall the 2013 model having that indentation.
Hey Dave I've been watching you videos since you first started. really good quality and you know what you talk about when it comes to car reviews. anyways, you deserve more subscribers on CZcams when compared to people like Dr. Sandra Lee that just got over a million subscribers in no time at all.even though I'll admit I am subbed to both of you. keep up the great work. I remember when you were a news reporter! Cheers and hello from Seattle. my wife and kids enjoy your videos as well, btw.
I'm becoming more and more fond of the Hondas interior. It used to not sit right with me. One thing that bugs me, is the amount of screens you have to look at. In one of Everyman Drivers videos about the 2013 Mazda3, they said it had too many screens in it. The same goes for the Civic, however they have yet to complain about it. Maybe they're biased?
a standard might be the best way to go, if the little battery fails, well, we could give it little push. lol , and with a automatique , getting started with out a boost would be like trying to get water to run up hill.
I don't get how they sell so many Civics. I have an Si, but had an EX as a loaner car. It got the same MPG as my Si except it was under powered and has a CVT. For exactly $2,000 more, my Si has the bigger engine, amazing 6 speed manual, upgraded audio, 18 inch wheels, leather steering wheel, limited slip differential, larger brakes, better seats, and sport suspension. I just can't understand why so many go for a normal Civic.
Same mileage? I don't think so, assuming you're talking about the 2014+ (which you must be because you mentioned the CVT). Civic Si w/ 6MT: 22/31/25. Civic EX w/ CVT: 30/39/33. That's an 8 MPG difference, or about 32%. Not saying you're wrong that the Si is a better car, but it's not competitive w/ the regular Civic on gas mileage.
symawd Did you see his climate? It's winter, cold, snowy, etc. All cars do worse on mpg in the winter. Plus he hasn't hardly driven it at all, it's brand new. Cars don't get the best mpg until they are broken in.
Thank you for the review, it is a really good review. i noticed the passenger airbag light (white light) was on all the time when you were driving the car. I guess there was no else in the car other than you during the test drive. Is this normal for the civic 2015? I would guess that the passenger airbag light(white light) plus the off light (yellow) should come on, if there is no one in the passenger seat. Just got this car and was going through manual and review to find the answer. I would really appreciate any clarification on this issue.
buildmorefarms100 I said most, not all. Learn to read. The ones you mentioned are fun, I agree. Notice the ones I mentioned aren't considered fun. Don't let our previous conversation influence your talking here, this is a different one.
IMPORTANT CAR BUYING TIPS, the civic 2015 is a nice car, but there is 1 thing that i hate about any car, when they do the alignment the staring wheel is slightly leaning to the left side wile driving on a very strait highway, and you know what that means, the car could be in line , but ours wasn't, was always wearing the right tire on the out side, honda said that it was the tire company flat, that's not the truth, the truth is the car is aligned with the 2 front wheels to far to the right, and this why the staring wheel is going down to the left, but the honda are beautiful cars, i am not saying that, if someone is leasing , hay any thing is ok, but when buying any car, honda and nissan, mostly, i checked them all, all makes and models, there is 2 really important factors to look for when buying a new car, number 1, check all door and hood and trunk seams to see if the space is the same on all doors , hood , and trunk cover, number 2, how it is handling and staring on the highway, the staring wheel should be right strait and level wile driving on a strait highway , it should be so so easy and comfortably to drive, not having to direct the car every foot of the way, the car should almost float like a plain , if the car that you are thinking of buying fails thouse 2 test, leave it there walk away, try another car, until you find one that passes those 2 teats, it;s is very important, you will be very glad that you did, because a car that fails the 2 tests, your having big problems down the road, , this goes for all cars makes and models, but i have checked many cars , and honda , and nissan mostly have those problems, never grab and take, because listen guys, a car should be made straid all thing lining up nice, if not there something wrong some one is not telling you, car buying tips, you'll be glade that you did.
I live in Philly and torn about trading my civic to a newer civic or the Si. Stop signs are everywhere here and afraid I will regret getting the si. Any recommendations?
I’ve been getting 10.5 gallon. Is this normal ? I wanna say it’s due to the cold. But if I remembering it right ... I think I got 11.0 when it was warm. What should I do ?
New subscriber here Dave, I've enjoyed watching you videos for a while now. Just wanted to throw my hat in the WTF ring for the mileage. Something seem really amiss there for your real world number to be that far off of Honda's claims. Has then a problem for recent model years of Civics?
It's really because of the weather and the fact that he has the heavier higher trim model...the CVT does also play a big role, many people don't know but the 2012 civic with the 5 speed auto (yes I said auto) was actually somewhat more efficient than the CVT, at least on the highway (We got 49.7 in a civic LX rental on the highway for 38 miles)...consumer reports got 19mpg city 47hwy in the '12 LX, 21city 49hwy in the '12 HF, and 18city 43hwy in the '12 EX...compare those numbers to the 2014 EX CVT model got 21city 40hwy, basically the same as the 20city 40hwy they got in the 2012 SI...I'm a nerd when it comes to fuel economy, excuse the long response lol
I traded a wonderful Chevy Silverado in on a Civic because I needed an economical car. What a mistake. It was supposed to get 30 city and 39 highway. I got 24 city and once 32 hwy never anything higher. Otherwise it was a good car except for the stupid two level dash. I traded it in on a Pilot within a year and that was a wonderful car also. Buy a Civic because you like the fit and finish and handling and you may be happy. Maybe the CVT helps its gas hog tendencies.
Honda really needs major work on their interior layout. That two-tiered thing is hideous and just needs to go. Great cars. Boring, maybe, but great reliability. Need some better styling on their exteriors and need WAY better interior styling, though!
Front seat is roomy, 2nd row isn't. Next gen is rumored to offer a hatch. The touch screen volume slider is a PITA. The Hybrid is nice but very gutless. Hopefully the next gen Civic adopts the 2016 Pilot screen layout. Needs to have the 2nd row room of a Versa / Corolla.

It's blended in plenty well enough. The design resists water splashes on the lens which is one of the most important things.
I just got mine as my birthday present! :D I love it!
In Canada the trim levels are LX EX and EX-L only

The civic discontinued in Japan as far as I know and is now designed by the US, thats why the seats are wider. Which is better in my opinion .

a standard might be the best way to go, if the little battery fails, well, we could give it little push. lol , and with a automatique , getting started with out a boost would be like trying to get water to run up hill.
Every time I watch you I want to do car reviews. Out of curiosity how would one start?
I just bought this car today 🙆🏽🚘
Brittany Humphrey hi I wanted to know is the car small inside I have two year old twins
Thank you love I had feeling it was small inside
I don't get how they sell so many Civics. I have an Si, but had an EX as a loaner car. It got the same MPG as my Si except it was under powered and has a CVT. For exactly $2,000 more, my Si has the bigger engine, amazing 6 speed manual, upgraded audio, 18 inch wheels, leather steering wheel, limited slip differential, larger brakes, better seats, and sport suspension.

Because not everyone knows how to drive stick
Anthony Go No one is born with the knowledge on how to drive. It's all about what you choose to learn.
Same mileage? I don't think so, assuming you're talking about the 2014+ (which you must be because you mentioned the CVT). Civic Si w/ 6MT: 22/31/25. Civic EX w/ CVT: 30/39/33. That's an 8 MPG difference, or about 32%. Not saying you're wrong that the Si is a better car, but it's not competitive w/ the regular Civic on gas mileage.
Todd P I don't care what the EPA says, on the route I take every day, the both average 29 MPG. Even Dave said he was only getting about 24 MPG.
symawd Did you see his climate? It's winter, cold, snowy, etc. All cars do worse on mpg in the winter. Plus he hasn't hardly driven it at all, it's brand new. Cars don't get the best mpg until they are broken in.
Nice video!
What watch are you wearing
Thank you for the review, it is a really good review. i noticed the passenger airbag light (white light) was on all the time when you were driving the car.

Radio disc jokey does cars....thanks for pointing out the cup holders but how does it drive? WTF. Road noise? Handling?
The 10th generation Civic will be revealed at the NY auto show. Can't wait.

it gets 17 city and 25 highway i have the ex model.
Hahaha!! Plywood!? Oh man.. That's funny..

?? The civic gives 39 mpg on highway at a 73 mph cruise. Even more at 65.
I'm not surprised a truck driver gets low mpg on a Civic, most of you are pretty aggressive on the road.
It's probably because you drove that civic like a silverado, you pickup truck drivers are wild as fuck :p
probably floored the crap out of it. i get 36 mpg on mine and i'm not exactly gentle on it.
There is no way you can fit plywood in there LMAO
Great job as always (:
Does anyone know if we can use premium fuel for this car?
Honda really needs major work on their interior layout. That two-tiered thing is hideous and just needs to go. Great cars. Boring, maybe, but great reliability. Need some better styling on their exteriors and need WAY better interior styling, though!
Front seat is roomy, 2nd row isn't. Next gen is rumored to offer a hatch. The touch screen volume slider is a PITA. The Hybrid is nice but very gutless. Hopefully the next gen Civic adopts the 2016 Pilot screen layout. Needs to have the 2nd row room of a Versa / Corolla.
I love this gen ugh I want it

Great car once you replace the cheap battery

Nice, but these companies could build a car starting at $13k, that is unless you just like burning cash. Just sayin.
