Gas or hybrid?
Hybrid power is the biggest theme, raised in 799 comments. The 2026 hybrid pairs a 2.0-litre four-cylinder with a two-motor system for a combined 200 hp and 232 lb-ft, and is offered as a Sport Hybrid or Sport Touring Hybrid in sedan or hatchback form. Gas Civics use a 2.0-litre four-cylinder with 150 hp and 133 lb-ft and a CVT, according to Honda Canada's 2026 specifications. One owner who moved up to the hybrid wrote: "I had 2019 and 2024 honda Civic. This 2025 Hybrid sport is the best. It's so smooth to drive and has more power."
Drive a gas Sport and a Sport Hybrid back to back, including a highway merge, before you decide.
