I just bought this identical car used in February 2018, as a third car for my wife and I. This car is a blast to drive. It's actually roomy inside and has surprising performance and handling. It was a great bargain with less than 10K miles on it.
i almost bought the 2016 civic. the best thing about this car is the handling. the steering is on the light side, but it is very direct. you get that fun go kart feeling driving it. you can whip this new civic around easily. its a huge improvement over the older boring commuter feel of previous models.
I watched the entire video and I have to admit, this is the clearest, most comprehensive video for the Civic Touring. I’ve watched quite a few videos and this one is top notch. He even explained how to use Honda Sensing, a feature I need help with. Now I know how to use mine. But I probably still won’t use it lol. Plus, I did not know about the drivers side mirror how it concave like that. Pretty cool. I will take a look at it tomorrow since it’s night already. It is a beautiful car and I’m loving my civic. I bought the exact same model previewed in this video except mine is a 2017. Not much changed from the 16 to the 18 model. Why? It’s already too perfect. Honda doesn’t see the need to change what’s been already a good. The civic already stormed their way to number one for best selling in its segment. And I’m one of them that contributed. Lol.
Wow, very thorough tour of the car. Answered a lot of my remaining questions remaining after watching at least a dozen other videos about the new Civic. Thanks for sharing. Really excited about this new generation and good timing too now that my 2006 Civic is on it's last legs. :) A couple of things I was wondering about: do the visors have those little sliding panels on the back to extend the length? I like those. Also, I'm guessing that hitting the left and right arrows on the 4-way steering wheel control will skip songs while playing off your phone?
+Brain Candy TV Thanks for your feedback! The visors do not have the extenders however it doesn't need them since the area around the rear-view mirror is heavily tinted on the windshield. Regarding the phone question... I don't know for sure but I think it does change to the next song.
Thanks, Mike. I'm trying to decide between a Kia Optima SX and the new Civic Touring while making a chart to compare all of the pros & cons. It's a tough choice and I don't quite understand the performance difference since the Kia has way more HP and torque but gets similar 0-60 times as the Civic. I guess it comes down to the transmission and weight difference and perhaps the Kia would have better acceleration at higher speeds? I know neither of them are super sports cars, but for the sake of comparison, I want to know which performs better. I guess I need to test drive them both to see how they feel. Still have lots to learn but I'm picking up a lot from these helpful UA-cam videos. Cheers, Michael
Nearly 87,000 miles in my 2016 Civic Touring sedan in this same color combo, without a single mechanical issue. I bought it used in 2018 with just under 10,000 miles on the odometer. I drive 75 highway miles a day roundtrip to work daily and it still runs great with plenty of power.
Congrats on doing a great 37 mins ! I had to stop and start but I got through it. You covered just about everything... I thought you were going to take the spare out and show us how to change the tire, lol. Seriously... great in depth video. Way to go 4K !
Just got the 2017 civic and hands down I Love this car.... still clueless on the reset for the tire pressure and some other features. overall, I love the feel and the drive of this car. Great Video! Helped me out a lot!
Awesome video Mike, great quality and a lot of info. I've had my Civic Touring since January, and I love it! But I learned more from your 30+ minute video than I did from hours with the owner's manual! :-)
Love it! Checked one out a few days ago and saw that you can use the remote to open all windows by holding the lock button (saw it here and had to try it) Love the android auto and definitely no problem passing on the highway
DOHC 1.5L turbo with 174 HP still producing 30+ mpg average sounds exceptionally amazing to me. Love the vehicle. Although aesthetically, I wish they would change the body style to more of the 8th gen civics. I guess I'm a little biased towards that since I own a 2008 civic.
Well Done, thank you. Best Civic 2016 review I've seen! I just wish this model came with a manual. Will you be doing a review for the 2016 Si? I can't wait to trade my 2013 Si for the new one!
Nice car! Honda, you’ve outdone yourself this time. You made me go out and buy this version. Can’t believe this is a Civic, lol. Looks too nice to be one. But I got one and it’s even better when you own it.
Thanks Mike! I expect to get my new 2016 Civic Touring Edition sometimes next week! From a 2012 EX-L to the Touring Edition, is quite a leap indeed. One thing I noticed is a VERY cool feature that you fail to mention, maybe because you didn't know at the time. As you are in Reverse gear, try to turn the wheels right and left .. the Camera Screen Guides (Gages) are moving to let you see where you're really heading. This is a UNIQUE feature from Honda! Try it! Me finding that out was a fluke! LOL Thanks for your review, Mike! Great video quality too .. 4K / 2160p is not always found on UA-cam. I really like this new UHD Standard. Keep up the good work!
GREAT choice, Mike! I can't tell you all of the improvements the new 2016 Touring Civic has that the 2012 EX-L (my previous car) has. Technology is astounding in the new 2016. I just L-O-V-E the LKAS (Like Keeping Assistant System) and the ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) features .. especially when I blow my nose (with 2 hands) LOLOL .. Takes a curve by itself !! GREAT feature! Happy new Year, Mike!
I just brought a new touring and I do say it's a very nice car. However I have to bring it back into the dealership to fix the subwoofer problem, it rattles in the back way too much. But other then that, I enjoy this car very much so far! But if you choose the color in this video (Like I did) I will say it does look nice at first with the white on black look. But be warned that for whatever reason bugs are attracted to this white color. I have no idea why, but bugs like white cars because of how the sun reflects off them. Wish I knew that before I got the white one. But oh well, white looks great on this car, especially if you black out the windows.
DETROIT (AP) - Honda is recalling about 45,000 newly redesigned Civic compact cars in the U.S. and Canada because the engines can fail and stall while being driven.
Thanks Tracci :) This is a great car for most anyone however I do recommend taking an extended test drive to make sure it is something you personally like.
I love Honda products. But I've been wondering for a while what is bugging me in the style of this one. The back window following by the top of the trunk (for what is left) don't have curves. And that would have been cool to get chrome around tail light rather than just red plastic.
I just recently bought this same car(metallic blue) but my storage pocket underneath is different. Instead mines has a wireless charging pad. This video helped me alot.
had no idea Honda makes jets. If Honda makes jets and then this car, there're definitely trustworthy. Am getting one. Thanks for the info +MikesCarinfo. great review. Good suspension this one?
This car is awesome, I have driven civics all my life and this is a real masterpiece. However, 2013-2015 is more Aesthetically pleasing than 2016, but when it comes to performance and comfort 2016 is country miles ahead.
The biggest mistake for the 2016 civic was the elimination of the two tier instrument panel, why??? Because now the driver has to look down to the instrument panel for his speed, and fuel efficiency meter. On my 2013 Civic and all 2012-2015 civics, the two tier instrument panel is very crucial and so beneficial for safe driving and you don't have to look down to watch your speed and notice your fuel efficiency meter which is a lot more noticeable on the 2012-2015 Civics. You can keep your eyes on the road ahead and notice your digital speedometer in your downward peripheral vision and the fuel efficiency meter lights are a lot more bigger and brighter on the 2012-2015 civics. The tail lights of the 2013-2015 Civics are much nicer and cooler looking than the 10th generation 2016 Civic. Also the setbacks for the dashboard look like that of the Toyota Corolla not being flush and smooth, notice the wide gaps?? Well see how the 2017s will look like according to consumer reports for the 2016 civics. But overall, Honda vehicles are the most fuel efficient, safe, reliable, great quality parts, and car than any other car in the world, built to last!

im gonna buy this someday. ❤
I just did!
is it good?
Leian Marfory did you get it yet?
Me too!
i wonder if he ever got it?
looks way more sportier, luxurious and expensive looking than previous years.
By a country mile
To this day, the 2016 Civic Touring has one of the best heated seats, compared to my other four cars, one of them being a 2018 Lexus RX 450
The Touring Edition has a ton of cool features and definitely portrays the Civic in a really sharp light

+Brain Candy TV I think it is the significant weight difference... definitely a test-drive is the best way to decide.

I've been looking at different cars for a while and i think i found a winner im definitely getting a 2016 honda civic now🥰
this car looks so good and fuel efficient
Hello Mike! You did not mention the phone wireless charging system? Does it mean not all the Touring have it? Very enlightening video btw.
I just brought a new touring and I do say it's a very nice car. However I have to bring it back into the dealership to fix the subwoofer problem, it rattles in the back way too much.

I’m so much in love with this car. I watch reviews on this piece all the time and can’t wait to buy one as my 1st car. So help me God☺️🙏🏾
luv ur vids,i had a new 2008 coupe years ago,this new level of car
Just picked one up, best decision ever for a nice used car with looks like will last for a long time
Excellent! Thanks for the great detail!
i love this car
Loved your review, Mike. Thanks for going thru every little detail! You don't happen to have one for the hatchback of it, do you?
This is an extremely convenient & super practical car .. I'm getting one
I’m going to buy this car in a couple months 🤗
Great video, most informative and least annoying one of these I've seen. Could you do a driving test vid at some time?
Nice review!
Great review btw! Love this car *.*
one of the best tours
i enjoy your tracks! remind me of old school video games! A+
So all 2016 Civics come in this sportback style, no more traditional sedan?
Love your process for reviews

thanks for the videos! did you know the driver/ passenger sun visor extends and slides out?
very nice and thorough review
What's your feedback on getting the sound system of non-Touring trims? Worth the extra coin to get the 450Watt system? (as compared to the EX-T). Thx.
Thanks for posting!
I really enjoy your videos do you recommend this car for a 60 year old man ?
Thanks Tracci :)
This is a great car for most anyone however I do recommend taking an extended test drive to make sure it is something you personally like.

I don't think it does but the rear was designed to look like it does.
nice vid, thank you for share.
ahhhh 4K - hard to go back to 720p reviews.
I think a big hatch trunk would have been cool on this car. like a BMW 3GT. then we could have an auto lift hatch.....that would be cool.
hopefully when the 2016 Honda CR-Z comes out you can do a video... Just subscribed GREAT REVIEWS!
