Honda has a long history of developing award-winning powertrains, and the 2025 Honda Civic is a testament to this legacy of engineering excellence. Its two-motor hybrid system earned a prestigious spot on the "Wards 10 Best Engines & Propulsion Systems" list. Let's dive into what makes this powertrain stand out.
Performance and Efficiency
The Civic's hybrid system is supported by an all-new 2.0-liter, Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine, generating 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. This impressive output delivers strong acceleration while maintaining a smooth, refined performance. The vehicle's electronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) ensures seamless transitions.
Fuel efficiency is another key benefit of the hybrid system, with an EPA-estimated 50 mpg in the city and 47 mpg on the highway, depending on the trim. Regenerative braking technology also helps recharge the battery as you slow down.
The Civic's four-mode drive system enhances versatility. ECON mode maximizes fuel economy, while Sport mode amplifies the car's performance capabilities. Additionally, the Individual mode allows for personalized driving dynamics.
Agile Handling
Alongside its impressive hybrid system, the Civic offers agile handling. The MacPherson front strut suspension provides stability and confidence around corners, and specially-designed tires further enhance ride comfort and handling precision.
