2023 Honda Civic Is Edmunds Top Rated Car Pick For 2nd Year
February 9, 2023 | Torrington, CT
The new 11th-generation Honda Civic has been awarded Top Rated Car honors by the automotive experts at Edmunds. This is the second year in a row the Civic has risen to the top of the coveted list. The best-selling compact sedan is the pinnacle of simple and sporty design, class-leading safety performance, excellent driving dynamics and fun-to-drive personality.
Simple & Sporty Design
Honda designers have taken the Civic (and the rest of the Honda lineup) in a cleaner, more refined direction in comparison to the edgy lines of previous generations. The lower profile and wider stance compliment the Civic's linear front-end to give the impression that this sedan is more expensive than it really is.
"Affordable, efficient, practical, and beautifully built, the Honda Civic has an enviable range of qualities," said Edmunds.com Editor-In-Chief Alistair Weaver. "In a market dominated by SUVs, the Civic is proof that a car can still be a great choice."
Clean & Spacious Interior
The 2023 Civic's interior is a master-class in ergonomic design. The low, clean dashboard is uncluttered while providing everything the driver needs to command the vehicle and the user-friendly infotainment screen is perfectly-perched above the rest of the controls in a convenient sight line without obscuring the road ahead. The primary controls have a premium feel that bely the Civic's actual price tag and outshine the rest of the vehicles in its class.
Solid Performer
While the interior and exterior design give the Civic the edge when it's standing still, Edmunds experts were most impressed by how this sedan performed. Honda engineers managed to craft a dynamic suspension that perfectly balances comfort and responsiveness. It's an everyday driver that you can just as easily get your pulse racing on a twisty road as you can sit back and settle in for a long highway cruise. The new 2023 Honda Civic delivers in every way and does it at an affordable price, making it one of the best values on the market.
