I've almost had it a year and it's truly powerful on the road, very stable — the driver aids make me feel super safe. In the city it moves around very well and the fuel economy is notable. I use it both on highways and in town and it's genuinely useful.

I used to have a petrol Civic and recently had the chance to drive the Civic hybrid. What a difference! Of course you’ve got to buy it! It’s a car that puts a big grin on your face behind the wheel. Sporty, eye-catching design.
