Honda has a well-established reputation for producing award-winning powertrains, and the 2025 Honda Civic is a prime example of this excellence. Its two-motor hybrid system has been named to the "Wards 10 Best Engines & Propulsion Systems" list. Here's why this powertrain is so impressive.
Power and Efficiency
At the heart of the Civic's hybrid system is a 2.0-liter, Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine that works alongside two electric motors to produce 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. This powerful combination delivers quick acceleration while maintaining a smooth, composed ride. The vehicle's electronic continuously variable transmission (CVT) ensures flawless performance.
On the efficiency front, the Civic excels, with certain trims achieving up to an EPA-estimated 50 mpg in the city and 47 mpg on the highway. Regenerative braking also helps keep the battery charged as you slow down.
The Civic's four-mode drive system offers versatility for different driving situations. ECON mode prioritizes fuel economy, Sport mode amplifies the excitement, and Individual mode allows for a customized driving experience.
Sharp Handling
The Civic's hybrid powertrain isn't the only star of the show—the car's handling is equally impressive. A MacPherson front strut suspension gives you confident handling through corners, while specially developed tires enhance both comfort and agility.
