The 2021 Honda Civic is a petrol sedan with FWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the FC/FK generation. The 1.5T EX is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 1.5T EX version develops 174 hp and 220 Nm (162 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 8.2 seconds, which is responsive rather than outright performance-focused. Top speed is listed at 210 km/h (130 mph). Its power output is about 16% below the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 10% slower than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Fuel economy and range
The listed fuel consumption is 6.7 L/100km. Fuel-tank capacity is 47.0 litres (12.4 US gallons). Recorded CO2 emissions are 153 g/km. Consumption, emissions and range can be measured under different regional procedures, so like-for-like comparisons should use the same market and test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,648 mm (183.0 in) in length, 1,799 mm (70.8 in) in width, and 1,416 mm (55.7 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,700 mm (106.3 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 428 litres (15.1 cu ft). The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,315 kg (2,899 lb). That cargo volume is about 6% below the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby petrol sedan models from the same period, the 2021 Honda Civic is strongest on price, while power and acceleration stand out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
