What this vehicle is

A daily commuter who wants low running costs and does not need all-wheel drive.

The tenth-generation Civic is longer, wider, and considerably more refined than the car it replaced, and it drives with a precision most competitors never matched. For a commuter running the Southern State or the Wantagh Parkway every day, mid-30s real-world fuel economy paired with a genuinely comfortable ride is difficult to beat at this price.

This is among the cheapest vehicles here to keep on the road. Insurance for a compact Honda is generally reasonable, parts are everywhere, mid-30s real-world fuel economy is achievable on a parkway commute, and the maintenance schedule is short. The main ongoing cost is tires, and even those are a common size.

Before you buy

What to check on this model

Items specific to the tenth generation Civic, worth raising on a test drive rather than discovering later.

Read the full inspection checklist
  • ✓Early 1.5L turbo cars had a fuel-dilution service campaign, so confirm which engine this car has and whether the update was applied
  • ✓Check that the infotainment screen responds without lag and that Bluetooth pairs cleanly
  • ✓Inspect the front bumper and lower valance, which sit low and pick up scrapes
  • ✓CVT fluid service is often skipped on used examples; ask what the maintenance history shows

Useful answers

Questions about this Honda Civic

Does this Civic have the 2.0 or the 1.5 turbo?

That is worth confirming before anything else, because it changes the maintenance conversation. The naturally aspirated 2.0L is the simpler engine. The 1.5L turbo is quicker and was subject to a service campaign addressing fuel dilution of the engine oil in cold-climate use, so on a turbo car you want to know the update was applied and that oil changes were not stretched.

Is the CVT a concern on a 2017 Civic?

Less than on some rivals, but the fluid service still matters and it is the item most often skipped on a used example. Ask when the CVT fluid was last changed and with what specification. On a test drive, acceleration should be smooth and quiet with no shudder under light throttle between roughly 30 and 45 mph.

Why is the price not listed on this Civic?

Some vehicles are quoted by phone rather than posted, usually because reconditioning is still being finalized or the figure depends on how the deal is structured with a trade or financing. Call 516-785-9378 and you will be given the number directly.
