- FIRST LOOK: The Civic Hybrid is back and Honda has some changes. On the outside you will notice a new front fascia, wheels and rear taillights. On the inside you will be greeted to a 9in infotainment system with Google Built-In. Under the hood is a 2.0L inline4 hybrid that produces 200HP.

Good morning….again! Time to put 2 scoops of Raiti’s Rides in your cereal bowl! Are you happy with what Honda has done with the Civic? Let me know your feelings in the comment section!
What baffles me is that for 2025, the Civic gets a digital gauge display, yet the Pilot for 2025 still has the part analog gauge setup and no Google built-in. I feel like Honda does things assbackwards sometimes. 🤦
@@chrisgelo1425 It really is bizarre for sure!
@@RaitisRides Makes no more sense them putting the largest infotainment system that they offer in the Accord instead of the Pilot, you know, their LARGEST SUV. 😆
Honda did a great job on the Civic, it’s actually the only car made by Honda I like right now. (This blue one is my favorite) All of the others look like boxes or outdated. I also like the Acura Integra it’s based on as well! Would the 2 scoops of Raiti’s Rides be also called “Twinkie O’s”?
@@chrisgelo1425That is weird. Digital in the smallest, least fanciest car, but analog in the family SUV which is supposed to be fancy. 🤔 This is why I like Toyota better, because even if it is outdated, they always put new tech in it. They also redesign it as well, and it probably will last longer. The old Honda, which made innovative cars like the Element, is no more…and the only car that actually is beautiful is the Civic.
50 MPG combined and more power than the Si, Honda hit a home run here.
You are so very right
Shows how little power they gave the Si
@@mistamaog I agree.. civic SI should have at leat 270 hp
@@ogi-9346Shows how little you know about the Si... It was always a 205 HP car fool. Why would it suddenly have 270+ 🤦🏽♂️ some of y'all just make me SMH
@@porfiriato84maybe not 275, but between 230-240 would be the sweet spot. Like make it comparable to an s2000 for that price point.
Been holding off on buying a car to see what the 2025 Civic Hybrid was going to bring to the table, and I'm sold.
I agree
They absolutely killed it with this civic
Keep holding off for the prelude
Why is the civic so much better looking than the accord?
I know right!
@@RaitisRides I will not accept this Accord slander anymore! 🤣
Way better lol.
Civic is much more attractive.
The Accord looks awkward; like a speed boat. Too long in the front, too short in the back.
Guarantee it looks better if they never dropped the 2.0T
Raiti’s Rides is spoiling us with two early morning reviews. I appreciate your grind, Joe.
You guys deserve it my friend!
That dark blue color is fantastic. I should’ve waited for a 2025!
I am sure you still have a great car.
I like the mpg but I love my fog lights, this doesn’t have them and I bought the sport so it wouldn’t be hybrid
@@RaitisRides such a pity this will cost 50-55K or more here in Ireland, Honda is being priced out of the market here. Have a 2019 civic and love it, would love to upgrade but price is killing us all on all makes.
That 50MPG is the game changer.
The exterior looks beautiful too.
No usb for back seat. "When my phone dies, I can read a magazine" 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They deleted them my 22 touring has usb they even light up . Not very different from this . But engine and radio option . Which are useless the 1.5 gets very good gas mileage
gen z would panic once their phone dies lol
Calm down just get a longer cord and route it from center console
@@njad3 gen z would panic if there phone died without a usb port in the back seat area 🤣
That does seem like a weird omission.
The biggest advantage this hybrid has over its competitors is how stylish it is.
Looks outdated
Ya doesn’t look bad but the exterior looks kinda cheap.
@@AgentFortyse7enit is compare to 2020, which was look sharp
@@user-su2ey9hp7p IDK the way I remember it the whole internet was on fire over how bad that generation of the Civic looked.
Reliability, performance, practicality, style, mpg. The only thing left the new Civic need is a good price.
Exactly. And if Honda gets too $greedy..,the new Camry will take their business. Camry pricing is very competitive
I have 2016 civic been waiting for the hybrid civic for sooooo long I’m really glad I waited thanks for the video raiti
You're the man. Ive been a waiting for this!! Picking one up for sure
You've got the best review on the new 2025 Civic Hybrid!! Thank you!!!
Oh my, you read my mind. I was looking at this car earlier this morning. There are not many videos out there yet! I have a 22 insight and I love this car. Over 38k miles I have averaged 59mpg. I just gave that car to my youngest son on Sunday, he just graduated from college. He gave back our 2012 Mazda CX9, that all 3 of my kids have driven at one time. The Mazda has been a great car,but you imagine the body damage it has now and no working air conditioner. 😂😂😂. Thank you!
We all drove that family car. My 3 kids drove that family car. I miss having my children at home. But I don't miss family cars.
Went from owning a Camaro to a Honda civic and will never look back!
What gen camaro 🤔
I was in a similar situation lol. I went from 2020 mustang to 2024 civic sedan…. YEP not looking back at all 💯
smart man
Why not both? 🤷🏻♂️ Seems like what I'm going to do next year!
Sharp reveals you brought to us this morning. I really want to see that blue in the sunshine. Thank you both for the video.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!! That new Civic Sedan looks the Bizzzzz!!!!
They really nailed it for sure!
Love it, especially that color. My 21 civic was the best car I’ve had so far and I’m tempted to always have a civic in my possessions.
I love the styling. It's clean, classy, and not overdone. No fake vents or other tacky add-ons. I am usually a BMW guy but I think I might go for one of these. If it came in AWD it would be an easy choice!
since they came out with the 11th gen civic, its the best looking civic. I got a 2022 brand new, waited awhile but was worth it!
Hey! Joe, I love this Honda Civic review. Thank you!
❤️ Thank you, Joe and Lori! ❤️
Even my '23 CR-V Hybrid Sport Touring routinely gets 40 mpg on average, so no wonder lighter cars (by what? Almost 1 thousand lbs?) can get 50 mpg. The hybrid system is extremely smooth and seamless and peppy. I'm very happy with it.
Oh, and 1 fill-up can last about 600 miles without any cumbersome charging. 😏🙄
EV users will never grasp the futility of buying all electric disposable cars .
love your reviews
Thank you for being so supportive
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video 👍
Great review defo worth waiting for
The lagoon color is gorgeous and the mpg is insane… I’ve always been a Toyota fan but I’m seriously going to consider this 2025 Civic since Toyota has gotten it wrong with their new prices..great work Honda , don’t let the dealers ruin the brand with pricing….!
Don’t fall for Honda! They scam you and not reliable
Another Home Run. Nice presentation Joe.
Thanks for having my back.
I love how these two models look! Nice job, Joe!
Good review. One is on my radar
Wait until you drive it! I've owned one in the UK for six months and it's brilliant to drive 👍. I know our gallons slightly bigger, but I get around 57 mpg!
These Civics are looking sharp. Great video Joe.
another great review Joe 🥳
Do you have an idea about MSRP for the new Sedan Sport ICE model? Is there any updates to the interior or any changes from the current ones? Thank you
They've been doing such an amazing job with the civic since 2014 upgrading it every year since and making it better and better meanwhile it looks like honda just gave up on the accord after the 10th gen in 2018.. 😢
Namaste! You do such a fantastic presentation. Just the right balance of humor and info. This is better looking than the Integra or Accord. And now with Bose and Google like the top Accord Touring. Plus the new colors! Can’t wait to road test it.
Great review....looks like a great car. We have been waiting on Honda hybrids.
We’ve had the Civic Hybrid (e:HEV) in Europe for quite a while, but here it produces 181hp.
This is true but not here in the states!
I would trade 19 horses for lumbar support and push button shifter
@@dabiri69and air vents!
184 HP is the correct figure. I have the European model and I would like to get 200 HP, but it’s true that the button is better for me, we get panoramic sunroof that is great, lumbar support and the front bumper looks better in my version that in the new version in my opinion.
@@Oslo-ho3ws In America they display horsepower as imperial hp (181), rather than metric hp (184).
I’m quite excited for this one! I think it may be my next vehicle, it sounds like a fantastic option! 😊
It is impressive!
Wow Raiti this is a prime example of a proper refresh for a Honda Civic. Honda has done this in the past with the 9th and 10th gen getting minor refreshes but this 11th gen impresses me. The enhanced tail lights and front bumpers are sharp on both body styles.
If i remember well , i saw that quarter panel window design on the Cadillac CT4 .
And it was here , with Raiti's ride.
The hatch SPORT HYBRID will be my upgrade from a 2016 EX. I'm disappointed the screen isn't bigger, around 12 inches. no rear USB connections, no panoramic sunroof like the European version. Rear Hatch should have a button to close it and should open all the way from the keyfob or by pressing a button on the back. Love the Google built in.
That sounds fantastic!
Why would you need a 12 inch screen?! It's a car not a tablet.
I'd be more upset about the no AWD
That color is off the chain
It really pops especially in the sun
@@RaitisRides yes sir
Greetings Mr. Raitis 🙏🏾
I'm liking the new refresh of the Honda Civic, specially with the hybrid version, great job on the presentation on your behalf, although I am surprised you didn't sunk the rear Thomas Edison turning signals.
I'm just saying. 😂😂😂
God bless you! 🙏🏾
Beautiful rides 👍🏼
50 mpg, power on par with the Si/Integra, and looks really clean? Might just have to pick one up for myself when it releases! Just hope the mark ups won’t be too bad. :/
A hybrid with more power than si and good fuel economy, everything you could ever want
Maybe you’ll buy a dodge hornet and like it
@@njad3 when it comes to dodge, I'm more into the Rams that's all
Stick is what I want. And a loaded hatch
This was a great video on so many levels. The content was awesome and it was filmed very well. Let me just say that I hate hatchbacks... but I would buy the civic with the hatch. And that blue lagoon color is gorgeous.
Wow! Im impressed! Its so much better in looks and all than the Accored to me, inside and out.❤
Love your cars video 📹 👌 ❤️ 😍 😀
Thanks for taking the time to say that!
😳🤯30k for a base Honda Civic is crazy!!
Right You get what you pay for is still true Today, Unfortunately Inflation is still a Huge issue, The Mainstream Media seems to not completely get, Because of the thousands of complaints I see like this about all Vehicle prices, Many of the so called cheaper options are just that cheaper in almost every way.
It's crazy to think that a Honda Civic would cost that much but when you consider what you're getting nowadays for the vehicle it's pretty impressive. It's hardly an entry-level vehicle anymore.
Exactly. They're suppose to be in the same class as the corolla yet the corolla hybrid is still in the mid $20k
@@clo289 You have a Carola, Unless it's a Manual then sure that be cool
I think he was talking about the top trim (the one he is reviewing) . Other car websites estimate the Sport Touring Hybrid hatchback at around 31k. This is an incredible deal.
I’ve enjoyed my 2023 Civic Sport I got last year but glad Honda has brought a hybrid option to their line up here. I’ll keep what I have but good to know for the future!
I’m glad you are keeping what you have and that’s what people should do, if it’s working then it’s working
Oooooo I BEEN WAITING FIR THIS ONE!!!!! Let’s GO!!!!! I gotta get this!!!!
The wheel styling is fantastic and gives the Civic the flash it needs.
I totally agree with you!
Love functional vents!
So do I! great minds think alike!
Joe! Love ya Baby. You make me laugh and give a great review too. Love the new style of the Civic.
Damn those rims look good!! This is a nice update to the civic
Yeah they did a great job with them!
Im in love!
That is so awesome to hear!
Honda's direction with the Civic hybrid certainly substantiates a lot of the rumors around the Prelude concept.
Great video.
Hey Joe it was great meeting you. Hope you had a good visit to the motor city.
Same here Bryan! Thanks for your great support! We sure did have a good time.
Absolutely love the blue lagoon sedan and those wheels. I hope that color bleeds over to the Si. Unfortunately it seems like the stick shift sport touring hatchback is going to be gone. That color would be a great successor to my dyno blue pearl Si
That is so great to hear!
Hey joe this Honda Civic this is awesome
I had a feeling you would like it Mark!
So cool
The hatchback I love it so nice
Good looking functional vehicle~ the color for me is like grey or blue-make up your mind! lol Repair costs for my past 3 Hondas were high but I miss my Del Sol-
I’m greatly disappointed to see that Honda continues to neglect adding lumbar support on at least the driver seat! The 18 inch wheels and the skinny sidewall tires can leave you on the side of the road with at least a flat or at worst a bent wheel!
They always insist on adding a sunroof that most people hardly use, and eventually leak. I personally like the car but I’m not sure about Honda’s decision making.
Car also needs AWD!
You can't expect that at this price point 😂
Nice wheels!
Yeah they did a great job!
I currently have a 24 SI and love it but I really like the looks of the new hybrid and the power output, especially that torque number. The wheels are sweet looking too.
Long time watcher first time commenter... Love the constant! I'm a field service guy so I drive 40,000 to 65,000 miles a year. I used to run civics from 2005 to 2011( one of them being a hybrid which was horrible in my opinion) since then I've had 5 VW GLI back to back. Looking for a change up...This new hybrid sport touring with 50 mpg may do the trick!
This looks better than the 2024
“Let’s talk about what’s going on here” 💪🏼
Heck yeah Ryan!
I'd read a "Raiti's Rides" magazine for sure. No other car magazine is going to provide me with Twinkie storage options of today's vehicles. 🙅🏽♂️💪🏽
Nice looking car and another great review! I wish Honda would do something about the iPad on top of the dash for the screens though. Part of the reason I went with a 25 Camry over an Accord.
i'm a Honda guy but how do you justify the Civic price when compared to the Camry-sounds like similar pricing??
*with no AWD option as well
Civic hybrid wow ! 👍
IT’S BAAAAAACCCCCCKKKK!
these are so nice !!!
do you think the fl5 will get the updated look too? im getting one soon within the next few months I would like to know if I should wait a little bit more for the 2025 model year
The 2.0 liter NA four is bullet proof!!
You better believe it!
E.V. sells are slumpy but hybrids are keeping up on resale value & selling like hotcakes. I think TOYOTA has been correct this whole time - hybrids are the real future. the Honda Civic is an Icon - your breaking report is mega awesome, thanks for presenting the great stuff. : )
Agreed 👍 💯
Wuchu mean? Toyota Pruis has had a full electric for a long time now.
Well hybrid were always better. You can charge your car at night or day and if you going on a long trip. You can put gas. To me, it's always being better than just electric only
It also helps that hybrids don’t cost an arm and leg lol
@@srobeck77you can buy the Prius as a plug in hybrid…
Lovely work I probably missed it- what is the mileage and how does it compare to the Toyota Prius.
The Hybrid civic 2025 looks nice, it has good power and really good mpg. Thats a winner
Well....well.....well.......😏
Love how they incorporated Google built-in, just hate, how you have to subscribe to get navigation. The digital display is a nice upgrade, too.
You nailed it Chris! 😂
Never heard of a google subscription. Is this a new thing on cars now?
Found out on one of the TFL truck videos. Think they were in Andre's Chevy Colorado where they saw it. I just remember them saying something about paying for data subscription with the Google built in services. Maybe it's just a GM thing, but I'm assuming Hondas the same.
I like the look of the Civic over the Accord
You are not alone in that!
Nice video as always Joe. Their Honda Civic really needs a charger in the back please 🙏🏼
Gonna be hard to get your hands on one of these. Same thing happened to the prius when it got updated
Damn Joe Raiti put out two videos in one hour. He killing it rn Fr. Kiss me Joe
Owning Civic 2023 here,
The new 2025 hybrid looks really good
But I don't drive a lot, the 1.5T engine is fine for me
I am waiting for Prelude, probably around 2026-2027
Dude I've been checking out Honda's lineup recently in search for a new car! some great timing fr
Looks gooood so far that civics 👍
Nice. Only problem is no one buys sedans anymore.
Only youtubers comments says that. Plenty of people buy sedans. Heck, alot of people just not buying new cars with these ridiculous price. So alot of people I know are buying use from 5 years ago.
Not to sure about that!
I bought a civic sedan, I will NEVER buy a SUV, they are more expensive and handle like crap
@@shun2240 more money to fix to
@@shun2240 depends on the SUV. I went from a jetta GLI to a first gen RDX back in 2012 and had no regrets. Been an SUV guy ever since, way more practical than a sedan and handle better in snow.
Last time I came this quick I became a dad!
😂😂😂 good one
Such a nice car, loved it.
That is so awesome to hear!
this looks nice and should be pretty quick. just got the 24 ex-l this year but damn
💙💙💙
Your camera skills are the best!
🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
You are the man Jimmy!
I've been waiting for this have to go see it in real ;D
I’m impressed with this refreshed look, good job Honda. The 11th gen civic is definitely one of my favourite modern day Civics. 🔥👍🏾
Under $30k.
Dealer: $29,999
Plus:-----
$4,200 advantage package for tints, wheel locks and ceramic coating protection
$3,500 dealer delivery destination fee and docs
😅😅
The touring version MSRP will be way more than 30k.
Civics are nice but I love Camrys
Nothing wrong with that!
The civic doesn’t compete with the Camry. The Corolla is its competitor.
Is the smoky mauve pearl still around for the hatchback? Such a nice deep purple.
How's visibility in the hatchback?
