The 2024 Honda Civic Si is a competent small sport sedan. It has sharp handling and a slick-shifting manual transmission. It's also affordably priced. However, the Si's acceleration is slow for a performance car. Long-distance comfort is also lacking.Read full review

Overview
The current-generation Honda Civic is one of the automaker's best yet. In fact, our test team named the Civic the Edmunds Top Rated Car for 2023. Just about everything you'd want from a small sedan or hatchback is here, including plenty of interior room, pleasing performance, and nearly all of the latest technology and driver assist features Honda has on offer. There's even the high-performance 315-horsepower Type R version to satisfy driving enthusiasts.
Cost to DriveCost to drive estimates for the 2024 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6M) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.92 per gallon for premium unleaded in Massachusetts.

Edmunds spotlight: Civic sedan or hatchback?
We like that Honda offers the Civic as a sedan or hatchback. The main difference between the two is, as you can likely guess, is cargo space. The sedan has a traditional trunk that can hold 14.8 cubic feet of stuff. That's a respectable amount of space for a small sedan. But pick the hatchback, which has a slightly more bulbous profile and a lift-up rear hatch, and you get 24.5 cubes of space behind the rear seats. The lift-up hatch also makes it easier to load bulky items in the back. The Civic hatchback does cost more than the sedan but we think having a more versatile cargo area is worth it.
Competitors to consider
Overall, the 2024 Honda Civic is a great pick for a small car. But it can be worth your time to check out a few alternatives. Besides the Hyundai Elantra and Toyota Corolla, we also recommend the value-packed Kia Forte or the refined Mazda 3. Be sure to read our Expert Rating below for our test team's take on what you can expect regarding the Civic's performance, comfort and more.
What’s it like to live with?
Not only did we name the Honda Civic our Edmunds Top Rated Sedan for 2022, but we also added one to our long-term review fleet. We opted for the Civic Si so that we could row through the manual transmission's gears for 20,000 miles and 12 months and learn what we like and dislike about one of our top picks. Check out all of our experiences with the 2022 Honda Civic Si.

Rated for you by America's best test team.Performance
8/10
How does the Civic Si drive? The Civic Si sedan is a pretty strong performer. Around turns, the Si is responsive but stable, providing lively entertainment while instilling confidence behind the wheel. The steering is light at lower speeds and and weights up as speed increases for a bit more precision, though we found ourselves wanting a little more feedback.
Less impressive is the Si's engine. An output of 200 hp just isn't special anymore. At our test track, our Civic Si accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in 7.2 seconds. That doesn't make it slow, but far from quick compared to the Volkswagen GTI (5.9 seconds with the automatic). Its engine and exhaust note aren't particularly memorable either.
Numbers aside, it feels like the power is there when you need it, and we thoroughly enjoy rowing through the gears and working the easy clutch on this rare manual-transmission-only car.

Comfort
7.5/10
How comfortable is the Civic Si? The Si's suspension, while stiffer than the standard Civic's, does a pretty good job of smoothing out bumps in the road. It doesn't ride as comfortably, but we think it's an acceptable trade-off given the car's sporty handling. The front sport seats are well cushioned and offer good lateral bolstering but not to the point of feeling constrained. The sport fabric also breathes well to help keep you cool on warmer days, but the seats lack adjustable lumbar support, which might be an issue for people with sensitive lower backs.
The climate control layout is a clear improvement over the previous generation's setup, with great vent coverage for the cabin. You don't get heated seats on the Si or dual-zone automatic climate control, however. Road noise is noticeable at any speed and can be rather intrusive on coarse surfaces. Wind noise is thankfully more subdued, and the rest of the interior feels solidly constructed and free of vibration.

Interior
8/10
How’s the interior? The cabin has an attractive design. All controls are within easy reach and intuitive to use. It's also roomy — the front can comfortably seat taller and shorter passengers equally well, and the rear seats will accommodate average-size adults with no problem. Rear legroom is abundant and headroom is adequate.
Outward visibility is aided by narrow front roof pillars and sideview mirrors that are mounted on the doors, freeing up your view out front. The back window is a bit short, but the multi-angle rearview camera helps you spot anything that might be behind you when backing out of a parking spot.

Technology
8/10
How’s the tech? The Civic Si's large 9-inch touchscreen infotainment system is located high on the dash to help you keep your eyes on the road. It has intuitive on-screen menus and responds quickly to your inputs. Most users will probably opt to use the standard Apple CarPlay or Android Auto smartphone projection. We found the wireless connection to be spotty at times, so you might just want to stick with using a USB cable. It was more stable and provided quicker connection speeds than wireless.
The Si may come with a manual transmission but still offers adaptive cruise, which is somewhat of a rarity. It does an admirable job of reducing the burden of driving in slow-and-go traffic, though you do have to shift yourself, if that wasn't obvious. Honda's camera-based advanced driving aids work well for the most part. Faded lane markings sometimes tripped up the lane keeping assist, but these occurrences were infrequent.

Storage
8/10
How’s the storage? The Civic Si's trunk can hold up to 14.4 cubic feet of cargo, which is generous compared to other sedans but not as good as the space in sporty hatchbacks like the Volkswagen GTI. The space is usable thanks to minimal intrusion from the Civic's wheelwells and trunk hinges. You can fold down the rear seats to provide more cargo space, though the pass-through opening between the trunk and rear seat isn't very big.
One thing we really liked about the previous Civic: It had lots of clever interior storage. Honda implemented more traditional storage spots for this new Civic, which is a small step back in our opinion. Still, the center armrest bin can hold a good amount, the cupholders are large, and a rubberized charging pad in front can help keep your phone from sliding around as it's charging.
If you've got little kids, the Civic offers three top anchor spots for front-facing child safety seats, and the main lower anchor points are easy to access. Larger rear-facing infant carriers will likely compromise front passenger space a little, but this is true for most cars in this segment.

Fuel Economy
9/10
How economical is the Civic Si? The EPA estimates the Civic Si will get 31 mpg in combined city/highway driving. The Si bests its most direct performance competitors by at least 3 mpg. We managed to achieve 34.6 mpg on our mixed-driving evaluation route, which indicates the EPA estimates can be pretty accurate if you're not a lead-foot driver.
Value
8/10
Is the Civic Si a good value? The Honda Civic Si is a pretty good bargain for this sport compact group. It has good performance, excellent fuel economy, a plethora of standard features and a nice, refined interior. We'd recommend to upgrading the HPT (High Performance Tires) trim, which adds summer tires for a marginal cost since they'll make a big difference in performance.
Honda's warranty remains fairly unremarkable compared to what other manufacturers offer with three years/36,000 miles of basic and five years/60,000 miles of powertrain coverage. But the company builds a good product that is generally reliable and holds its value well.

Wildcard
8.5/10
The Civic Si is a joy to drive. Sharp handling, responsive steering and a smooth-shifting six-speed manual transmission all help create a sporty drive experience, even if the Si doesn't have as much straight-line speed as its competition. Its styling is unremarkable, but that's largely the point of this latest-generation Civic.
Which Civic does Edmunds recommend?
For most shoppers, the midlevel EX (sedan)/EX-L (hatchback) trim will offer the best value in the Civic lineup. It includes more standard features than the base Sport and a more powerful yet fuel-efficient engine for not much more money.

First Civic I haven’t really cared for.
2 out of 5 starsJerrid, Scottsdale Arizona, 12/06/2024
2024 Honda Civic Si 4dr Sedan (1.5L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
So let’s get down to the brass tax on this. The car looks great drives really smooth and has plenty of power. We already knew that though.
What you might not know, is this thing is loaded with all kinds of driving features that assume you have no idea how to drive. So if you find yourself ever on a highway a main road, or a side road expect crazy things to happen while you drive. The … adaptive cruise control will slam on the brakes out of nowhere regardless if there are cars around or not. I think it’s just scared of it shadow.
The lane assist shuts off after 15 seconds of no engagement if you’re going over 50 miles an hour or playing songs with volume higher than level six, you will not hear the alarm go off and it will give you no visual warnings that it’s disengaged. I’ve almost gotten an accident three times due to this.
The traffic collision system will really make your heart race! Assuming you’re on a highway and someone is trying to pass you and comes really close to your vehicle while doing so, it might just slam on the brakes regardless of how close the guy is behind you, what a treat!
Good news is, you can turn most of this off within the internal menu, which can only be accessed with the car turned off in accessory mode.
The traffic collision avoidance system, which will try and crash you several times a month can only be turned off in this accessory mode and it has to be done every single time you start the car.
Assuming you wanna have warranty oil changes, you must wait until the maintenance minder let you know that a minimum of 7500 miles to 10,000 miles in order to get that covered by your warranty. If you’re smart like me, and change your oil sooner than that, look forward to paying it out-of-pocket
In summary: if you’re into having a car that likes to surprise you with its awesome unrefined features, this is definitely the car for you.
If you’re looking for an stress-free ride without having to worry about your car, trying to kill you, I would highly highly highly recommend something different. I’ll go back to pre 2017 cars after I sell this.

Honda Civic vs. Kia Forte
There's a lot to like with the Kia Forte. It offers a lot of features for less money than most rivals, Civic included. A long warranty only increases the value further. But the Forte lacks some refinement compared to the Civic, with a rougher ride quality and a smaller interior that's not as well appointed as the Honda's.
Honda Civic vs. Hyundai Elantra
The Hyundai Elantra is closely related to the Kia Forte and shares many of the same pros and cons. The Kia lacks a high-performance version, however, which is where the Elantra and its high-performance Elantra N variant come in. It's one of the best-driving compacts we've ever tested, and it should put the new Civic Type R on its toes with its powerful turbocharged engine, sporty handling and significantly lower price tag.
Honda Civic vs. Mazda 3
The Mazda 3 is smaller than the Civic in terms of passenger and cargo space but counters with a premium interior, sporty handling and sharp looks. The Mazda 3 2.5 Turbo makes up to 250 hp and is a great alternative to the Civic Si. And like the Civic, the 3 is available as a sedan and hatchback. One final advantage for the Mazda 3: You can get it with all-wheel drive, which is great if you frequently drive in wintry conditions. Read Edmunds' long-term road test of the Mazda 3 for more.
