The 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid is making waves in the compact car market. Not just for sipping gas like it’s iced tea on a hot day, but for combining that efficiency with real performance chops. Crowned the 2025 North American Car of the Year™, this Civic isn’t just about saving dollars at the pump—it’s about giving you reasons to smile on your daily commute.
Powertrain and Performance
Under the hood, Honda fitted the Civic Hybrid with a 2.0-liter Atkinson-cycle four-cylinder engine and two electric motors. Together, they punch out 200 horsepower and 232 lb-ft of torque. That’s more than enough muscle to zip from 0–60 mph in around 6.6 seconds—not bad for a car that also tries to save the planet.
The 1.1-kWh lithium-ion battery powers regenerative braking and provides seamless transition between gas and electric. EPA ratings clock in at 50 mpg city and 47 mpg highway. That’s Prius territory—without the, let’s say, "controversial" styling.
