About the Honda Civic Hatchback
Featuring Euro-inspired styling, groundbreaking tech upgrades, and sport-focused performance tuning — the Honda Civic Hatchback is the ultimate choice for drivers searching for everyday practicality combined with an exhilarating experience behind the wheel. As the youthful sibling of the award-winning Civic Sedan, the Civic Hatchback benefits from its unique rear liftgate and streamlined styling that cascades towards the rear. Step inside the cabin and you’ll find yourself surrounded by the latest connectivity features and multimedia to keep you entertained as the miles fly past your windshield. Standard 60/40 split-folding rear seating combined with an enlarged rear cargo opening make the Civic Hatchback the perfect choice for those living active lifestyles. Two potent engine choices along with two distinct transmission options make it simple to find the right amount of performance and efficiency to match your driving preferences. Included as standard across the model range, Honda Sensing® is a collection of advanced driver-assist technologies designed to keep you alert and informed.
What the Critics Say
This little Honda hatch has a good amount of performance. The sporty handling lets more spirited drivers actually have some fun rather than feeling soft or disconnected. Usually, these abilities are reserved for the more performance-focused models like the Civic Si and Type R, which tells you how good this car is.” — Edmunds
Comfort and versatility may be strong suits, but interior quality is one of this Honda’s greatest achievements. The low, horizontal dashboard looks timeless and is made of premium soft plastic that puts what you get in some Audis to shame. The climate-control knobs click like the crown of a fancy watch and feel just as expensive, while the joystick-inspired air-vent controls move with scientific precision.” — CNET
Honda Civic Hatchback Features
Sport-Focused Performance
Equally as athletic as it is attractive, Honda engineers spent countless hours infusing the Civic Hatchback with agile handling characteristics to complement its responsive powertrain options. Standard power comes in the form of a 158-horsepower 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC® 4-cylinder engine paired to a CVT transmission. For even more muscle, drivers can step up to an available 1.5-liter turbocharged and intercooled DOHC VTEC® 4-cylinder engine and a short-throw 6-speed manual transmission. 4.9 inches shorter in length than its sedan sibling, the Civic Hatchback also delivers responsive handling thanks to a lightweight composite hatch and wider rear track. Its reimagined body structure has resulted in a 19-percent increase in torsional rigidity compared to the prior model. If you’re craving practicality combined with a rewarding experience behind the wheel, it’s hard to ignore the dynamic Honda Civic Hatchback.
Driver-Focused Interior
With a focus on functionality and minimalism, the interior layout of the Honda Civic Hatchback is designed to adapt to your active lifestyle. Standard on all trim levels are Honda Body Stabilizing Seats that are specially constructed to maximize comfort on longer journeys. In a matter of seconds, its standard 60/40 split-folding row of seats can be lowered to accommodate larger items through the larger rear hatch opening. You can also experience your favorite songs like never before with an available Bose Premium Sound System featuring Centerpoint 2 and Bose SurroundStage digital signal processing tailored specifically for the interior of the Civic Hatchback. Eliminating unnecessary clutter from cables and wires, it’s easier than ever to keep your smartphone charged up on the way to your destination using optional Qi-compatible wireless charging capabilities.
