      They're both great. Corolla is small, boring and it's the last car you'll ever *need* to buy.
      The Civic is better, bigger, more fun, just not invincible.

    Road noise is a big problem in the Civic. And why did Honda eliminate the engine TEMP gauge in the instrument cluster and replace it with an IDIOT light? Come on Honda, how cheap can you get?

    • @recordedanemone6399
      @recordedanemone6399 Місяць тому +2

      Yes, I own a sport touring hatchback, and the road noise is definitely more prominent than it should be. Since I've got mine on lease, hopefully they can fix that issue with the hybrid civic this year. Other than that, great car 👍

    Sport trim? Where’s the temperature gauge? Why is Honda doing away with the temperature gauge? They did the same thing in the 2024 Ridgeline and I’m sure the Pilot and Passport since the Ridgeline is based on those two vehicles. Why?

      @@InvestWithAlex I traded in my 23 Corolla for a 24 Civic. Civic has sunroof, heated seats, and blind spot monitor which the Corolla lacked. Sure the Corolla had SXM on the radio and power seats but its far inferior in my experience. Not to mention the CVT transmission in the Corolla with the physical first gear is absolutely horrible and boring to drive. I am also getting 6 more mpg in the Civic. The Civic is a better car than a Corolla for a list of reasons.

    • @InvestWithAlex
      @InvestWithAlex Місяць тому +1

      @@odbza6655 I traded in my 18 Q50 and spent months comparing the Corolla SE and Civic Sport. I'm assuming you went with the touring trim for those extra features. My Corolla has blind spot monitoring and sunroof, which for comparable trim (SE vs Sport) the Civic sport lacked. I also liked how the door panel and dashboard were all soft touch vs the hard plastic on Civic.
      The Corolla has gotten me better MPG's and the physical first gear means less wear on the CVT. They're both equally slow, Corolla SE vs Civic Sport, SE was a bit faster. 0-60 wise. But I'm sure the 1.5t on the touring is much faster than the 2.0, but sacrifices maintainability (premium fuel, wears engine faster, etc)
      Overall I found the Corolla is a few thousand less for comparable trims so it gave me the better value. Styling wise I love the new Civic.
