Definitely worth every penny....Source: MSN Autos...After 1 year, my calculated savings will be over $2500. I opted for the Civic Hybrid because feature wise, it was less expensive than the Toyota Prius which had a higher price tag that did not warrant the the few extra mpg, and most importantly was the Civic styling Cons: I have owned many other cars, any my only thing about Hondas in general is that they are loud from exterior driving noise. However, I chose the Civic Hybrid as it was much better than the Insight which sounded like wind shear on a jet plane when driving only 65mph. The handling is pretty good when compared to my MB E500... |

I Love My 2011 Honda Civic Hybrid!Source: MSN Autos...I really like not living at the gas station anymore. I average between 40-60 mpg; the lighter I am on the gas peddle and not a lot of a.c. = more mpg! Gas prices have gone up in Hawaii to over $4.00 now, but I only have to get gas every 2 weeks now! Honda even took my 1999 Toyota Corolla LE as a trade; Toyota wouldn't even consider it as a trade, even though they serviced the car since I bought it new from them in 1999! Honda gave me the best deal! I would recommend Honda highly. Tell them Karen sent you!!! Cons: Nothing yet. This is my first Honda. I've only had the Civic Hybrid for 3... |

There are much better choicesSource: Cars.com...If more than two people are in the car it become so slow and sluggish that it really is dangerous. The seats are only comfortable for short trips, anything extended will require frequent stops to get some relief. There is almost no useable room for traveling. Two people will have to pack very conservatively for a weekend trip if they want to fit everything in the car. The car is good looking and has good features. It is mechanically reliable, however, the transmission would just rev from time to time with no forward movement of the car (felt like it was slipping). For the extra money, the... |

My second HCH....BETTER than the first!!Source: Cars.com...My gas mileage would stay around 39-43 mpgs per tank. (I always calculate the mpg's when I fill up.) In december of 2011 we decided to trade up to the new 2012 HCH, and the average mpgs with the redesign went from 40/45 to 44 combined. But with this new 2012 I'm getting more like 48-52 mpgs!! I'm all about the MPGS and saving money at the pump when gas prices go up. The fuel tank on this 2012 is about 2 gallons bigger than the one from my 2008 model, but being able to go over 500 miles per tank is amazing!! I will never EVER go back to a regular gas vehicle, and my next purchase will... |

Needs some helpSource: Cars.com...a few minutes and charge-assist indicator would indicate that the battery was spending most of the time charging with little to no assist being utilized. I took it to my local Honda Dealer where I purchase the car and they said that it needed a software update. This was accomplished and I drive it for an additional week with the same results as before the update. I took it back to the dealer and the service manager said that everything was fine (that it was acting normal) and they could do nothing until and IMA indicator light came on to indicate that there is a problem. When I told him about... |
