Gripes

It does come with quite a hefty price tag to begin with
Road noise can get obtrusive on the motorway
Drive Smooth auto transmission means a relaxing drive, if you can stop stressing the engine has cut out on you at lights. It will start again, honest
Reliability Honda has made other hybrid cars before so they're not experimenting with the Civic. Build quality is excellent too
Inside The digital speedo takes a bit of getting used to. Controls accessibility great and we love the futuristic looks
Space Four adults will travel in style and although there isn't the hatchback-style seat adaptability in this saloon, it does the job in comfort
Safety Standard stability control gets the thumbs up, as do anti-lock brakes and those front, side and curtain airbags
Standards and extras As there is only one edition, you won't have to swither for long. Luxurious standard kit, so we say have leather interior too (£800)
