Best vehicle for your mid-late twenties!
My vehicle has gotten me from Pittsburgh to la and back! It is great for weekend trips and great on gas. I have driven it all over the United States and I am never getting rid of it! I can fill my gas tank for no more than $30 at the highest. I just hit 100k miles and it still drives great.

It saves a lot of money on gas because it is a hybrid.
This new vehicle works really well and I got it used a couple months ago and have saved so much on gas since it is a hybrid. I do not usually have good experiences with cars since my past two cars have had multiple problems with them so finding this new car was perfect the inside is great and everything I could want in a car.

Great gas mileage and smooth ride
Great car that gets awesome gas mileage. Love not having to fill up multiple times a week. Plenty of room for me and the kids. Trunk space could be bigger but it works for us. I would definitely buy another Civic Hybrid. I have recommended this car to others, and I have said that I will always have a hybrid car of some type simply due to the great gas mileage!

Easy to drive, easy to maintain.
Smooth ride. Excellent air conditioning. Hybrid battery ran down after six years. High gas mileage. No more speeding tickets. Good sound system. Small trunk. Reliable tires. Fun to drive and comfortable to ride in for long periods of time. Pretty metallic paint color resists chipping.

Honda Civic - most reliable car!
This vehicle is fantastic. It gets great gas mileage. I commute to work daily and I only have to fill up my gas tank about once every 2 weeks. The tank is only about 10 gallons so it's cheap to fill up the tank too. The seats are comfortable, it drives well, and it is extremely reliable. It has never given me any sort of mechanical issue.

My vehicle is compact but is fairly spacious
My car is currently in the shop because the caliper froze up causing the left rear brake pad to wear down to nothing. For the most part, the car has been fairly reliable as I've had it since 2017 and I bought it used. The breaks and tires were the most expensive repairs I had so far.

I love my Honda Civic. It's extremely reliable.
My vehicle is reliable. It gets me where I need to go and rarely has problems. I would say that my biggest problem with it is the seats. They stain very easily and it is very hard to get out. That's not a huge concern though. It is cheap on gas and runs very well.

Reliable and holds Its value.
Great car with great mileage as a hybrid. Reliable and responsive. Only problem, to update the map for the nav system is very expensive. Quality leather and very comfortable. Service tends to be expensive, but always they do a good job. Wears well over time..

Is The 2012 Honda Civic Hybrid A Good Car?

Yes, it runs perfectly and great for road trips! The mileage on my car is about 25,000 miles. It’s low but very convenient when you need a car just to cruise around or go to work.

I got my Honda Civic for $6k in cash, it was cheap since the year of the car is 2012. I am still shocked at how much in good condition it is. Yes, it is very good value.
