First Drive: 2016 Honda Civic
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- We've come a long way from that first Honda Civic... This is the 2016 Civic, and it's the 10th generation of Honda's plucky compact. For the first time, the American Honda team has led the development of the car, and they've given us a Civic that's incredibly well rounded. It should be, considering that Honda looked towards German premium and luxury vehicles for inspiration.
This is our first taste of the new Honda Civic. We're eager to get our grubby mitts on the upcoming Civic Si and definitely on the Civic Type R. For now though, we'll settle for an initial sampling of the all-new machine by starting with the Civic Sedan Turbo, and it's new 1.5-liter forced-induction mill.

Great review on the 16 Honda Civic. so much fun to watch
I absolutely love this car. gotta have it! screw the corolla.
I've got the hatchback with a manual 6... it is a blast!
Hands down the best Honda review I've seen!!! Had me laughing out loud. Can't wit to pick my EX-T up next week.
This car totally looks like the 2010-2012 ford fusion from the front !
dashing exterior like sports car.
Loved the review. Running over a Honda cone is totally some shit I would do.
And yeah, those scarecrows are creepy as hell.
Excited about front wheel drive. MMkay. Background music for no reason : / Why?
When are they gonna stop criticizing the CVT? I drive a 2016 Maxima (and it feels like an Auto with better MPG)

great review, when will u do the 2016 chevy malibu?
A much needed upgrade to the 2015 version.
Would you get this over mazda6 grand touring? With 26k you get this fully loaded. 😅 but how does the Interior space volume compare?
+wiganda The Mazda6 will be larger inside for sure. I'd wait to see what the five-door hatch Civic looks like... -JG
I like my 95 Civic better fitted with a 63 trim turbo external wastegate and hood exit exhaust blowing flames with lots of turbo whistle, emissions testing lol what's that... Pow pow
I don't think the type R you're talking about is based on this platform though, isn't it based on the current gen Euro Civic. So I'm saying its not the Type R version of this new gen that's on the video, so maybe maybe not faster than the FWD nurg record.
+enemay I think they Type R that we're getting stateside though is based on this platform, no? I could be wrong - either way, looking forward to driving it. -JG
+enemay The current type r is based on the euro civic, but moving forward all civic worldwide will be based on the same platform. The new type r will be based on this
What's the 0-60?
Your Honda Civic boner is huge.
However, I understand the adulation for this generation civic. It looks legit. Even though it looks like a scaled down Crosstour from the rear 3/4.
+Jarrod A I see the Crosstour thing in photos, but it doesn't come off as Crosstour-y in person, which is good.
+The Hooniverse That's good to hear. To your point, pics can be deceiving. With me living in Seattle I'm sure I'll see these things everywhere. This is the first civic since the gen you had that gets me excited.
I think Honda is getting its mojo back.
Why the heck did Honda design this to look like a hatchback and only give it a regular trunk?!?!
SEW FAHNSEY
decent.
kill the crappy guitar background music, otherwise nice.
Dear you said, "there is no automatic transmission option with .. a turbo engine..." CVT is automatic transmission. You need to watch your video again... you suppose to say Conventional automatic transmission.
+Rohan Patel Fair point, but I could argue that an automatic transmission automatically changes gears... in a CVT there are no gears, just ratios so it's not an automatic transmission. -JG
+The Hooniverse May be some % of your audience are going to understand, "there is no automatic transmission option >>>Only if they are not mechanically incline."
No way, the 2013-2015 civics are the best! They took away the two tier instrument panel and it looks like a corolla now. Look at the ugly tail lights, almost like the 2012 civics all over again. I definitely don't like it, love my 2013 Honda Civic EX.
the background guitar it really sucks ..
There's a game called BeamNG.Drive which has very realistic car crash physics, you should definetly check it out!
As for the review, it was great as always, a lot of fun to watch.
it's getting ridiculously obese it has become an accord
Good Lord dude try to tone down the stupid hipster look
--plaid shirt-- check
-manicured scruff beard-- check
-slicked over to one side hair-- check
-giant wristbands..or giant oddly colored watch-- check
Are you sure you weren't reviewing a Subaru and just dressing to play the part ?
hahahahaha good point lol.. was thinking the samething
I'll be sure to check in with you for fashion tips next time. Manicured beard? I needed to shave and it was at the end of a long bit of travel, that facial scruff is terrible... Far from manicured.
also good to know that "red" is an odd color, I'll inform the G Shock team immediately. -JG
+Andrew Tewes Keep your fashion comments for fashion YT channels that care, not a car channel, bud
GTFO
+Andrew Tewes : For a car review you're awfully concerned about his personal appearance. Issues much?
God stop the music track...... Can barely hear you......Can't finish the video .....
+FreneticEfreet oh please. the music is plenty low enough to sit in the background and you can hear me easily... -JG
i actually like the music
You talk too much...what about the ride, handle and drive?
+neil borodkin oh you mean the stuff I talked about when I was talking too much? Hard to convey ones thoughts without, you know, speaking.
I gave the basic gist that the steering isn't as good as it was on past gen Civics... so there wasn't really a need to go into more detail since it's a pretty basic machine otherwise. It gets through corners alright, but it's no performance machine. -JG
