The 2022 Honda Civic is a modern marvel. With its solid safety features with Honda Sensing technology, great engine, classy interior and exterior, the 11th generation of the Honda Civic is becoming a car of choice, even prompting past Honda Civic owners to upgrade their ride. In the Philippines, where gasoline prices are shooting up, one great concern, however, is the fuel economy of a car. Today, let’s find out how fuel efficient the 2022 Honda Civic is.
The Honda Civic 2022 comes with a 1.5 liter inline four VTEC Turbo gasoline engine which produces 178 horsepower and 240 newton meters of torque. This engine, despite the size, is quite fuel efficient. Certain tests show that city driving is about 10 to 11 kilometers per liter, while on the highway, it can go up to 14 to 15 kilometers per liter. On mixed conditions, expect about 11 to 12 kilometers per liter. These figures are not bad, as a matter of fact, good since you do not only get fuel economy but great engine power as well.
Bear in mind that the 2022 Honda Civic is paired with a CVT transmission, and it also has two driving modes – Econ and Sport. If you wish to achieve maximum fuel economy, of course, just go to the Econ mode. Mixing the modes depending on the driving condition when, say, going out of town, Civic owners say fuel economy is still very optimal.
The Honda Civic is available in three variants – the S, the V and the RS variants, but all share the same engine and transmission, so these figures are likely the same across the three. Just keep in mind that fuel economy is also affected by other factors such as driving habits, road condition and steepness, the weather, among others. Still, the Civic is bang for buck for daily driving in style.
