The Civic approaches hot hatch perfection - at a price. The PH Review, take two 🎬
There’s no avoiding it, so best deal with it first. Of all the interesting numbers around the, the price will get the most attention. In the UK, it costs £46,995. Any colour other than grey is an extra £650. Add the Carbon Pack and Illumination Pack and a Civic will cost more than £50k.
Perhaps the most significant dynamic tweaks, the Civic’s wider tracks and longer wheelbase, contribute a lot to the fresh new look as well. It’s properly mean from the front now, low and broad like a touring car. Crucially, too, there’s nothing to offend, even if it suffers the standard Civic’s problem of being a bit ungainly thanks to the sheer size.
It dries up a bit later on, if never to the point of turning the wipers off entirely, and the Civic continues to impress. The brakes are just superb, both for the feel and the ability to pull the car up in no time at all with absolute stability; they must feel almost otherworldly on a dry track. Communication of the limits through seat and wheel feels improved, too, though it probably wasn’t this wet driving the old one.
