Verdict

Technically clever, but the mpg figures barely seem worth the bother.

Honda Civic Review

Used Value4 out of 5

The Hybrid's percentage of retained value after three years is in the mid-40s: that's no better or worse than most Civics, and much the same as the Prius. Demand for hybrids will continue to rise for the foreseeable future, although the next generation may have fewer of the compromises involved in living with today's Civic Hybrid.
