What trims does the 2026 Civic sedan come in?
Four core trims: LX, Sport, Sport Hybrid, and Sport Touring Hybrid. LX and Sport use the gas engine; Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid use the two-motor hybrid system. Honda also sells the performance-oriented Civic Si and Type R as separate models, not part of this core lineup.
Should I get the gas Civic or the Civic Hybrid?
The gas Civic (LX or Sport) uses a 150-hp 2.0-liter engine and starts lower in price. The Civic Hybrid (Sport Hybrid or Sport Touring Hybrid) uses a 200-hp two-motor hybrid system that's both quicker and more efficient, reaching up to 49 mpg combined. Drivers focused on the lowest price stay with gas; almost everyone else comes out ahead with the hybrid, since it beats the gas engine on both power and fuel economy.
Does the Civic offer all-wheel drive?
No. The Civic, gas or hybrid, sedan or hatchback, is front-wheel drive only. Honda does not offer AWD on the Civic in any configuration.
What is the difference between the LX and Sport?
Both share the same 150-hp engine. Sport adds 18-inch gloss-black wheels, paddle shifters, a 3-Mode Drive System, blind-spot monitoring with cross-traffic monitor, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and remote engine start over the LX's 16-inch wheels and more basic equipment.
What safety rating does the 2026 Civic have?
The 2026 Civic sedan earned a Top Safety Pick award from the IIHS, plus a 5-star overall rating from NHTSA. Every trim includes Honda Sensing standard: the Collision Mitigation Braking System, Road Departure Mitigation, Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow, Lane Keeping Assist, and Traffic Sign Recognition.
Has the Civic won any awards?
Yes. The 2026 Civic made Car and Driver's 10Best Cars list for a record 12th time, more than any other nameplate in the award's history, and the Civic Hybrid earned Edmunds Top Rated Car recognition for the second year in a row.
How does Nalley's 7-day, 1,000-mile return policy work?

How the Civic actually drives around here
How does the Civic Hybrid handle rush hour on I-285, GA-400, or the Downtown Connector?
The two-motor hybrid system's electric motor and regenerative braking are built for exactly this kind of stop-and-go driving on I-285, GA-400, or the Downtown Connector. That's a major reason the Hybrid rates up to 49 mpg combined versus 34–36 mpg combined for the gas LX and Sport, and the cabin is noticeably quieter at a standstill since the gas engine can shut off entirely in traffic.
How well does the Civic's cabin air filtration handle Georgia pollen season?
The Civic's automatic climate control includes cabin air filtration designed to help manage pollen, dust, and other particulates, which matters during Georgia's brutal February-through-May pollen stretch. Confirm the specific filtration equipment on your trim with a Nalley advisor if this is a priority.
Is the Civic good for touring the Blue Ridge Mountains and North Georgia?
The Sport and Sport Touring Hybrid's firmer suspension and Sport drive mode make for an engaging drive on curvy paved routes like Highway 60 through the Chattahoochee National Forest. The honest limit: the Civic is front-wheel drive only with no AWD option in any trim, so it's built for pavement, not gravel forest roads, and has less margin than an AWD crossover in genuinely icy winter conditions.
How does the Civic handle traffic on Cobb Parkway?
Cobb Parkway's stoplight-to-stoplight retail traffic favors the Civic Hybrid, whose regenerative braking and electric motor are built for stop-and-restart driving. The Civic's 14.8-cubic-foot trunk is roomy for a compact sedan, though tighter than a midsize sedan like the Camry or Accord for tailgate gear headed to Truist Park and the Battery.
Is the Civic a good fit for a weekend trip to Savannah?
A run down I-16 to Savannah is almost entirely highway miles, and the Civic's gas engine gets a respectable 41 mpg highway, while the Hybrid does even better. Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow comes standard through Honda Sensing on every trim, which takes real fatigue out of a four-plus-hour drive.
