The Honda Civic is well-known for its impressive fuel efficiency, with different models and powertrains offering a wide range of consumption figures. The 2025 Honda Civic lineup features both gasoline and hybrid variants. Gasoline-powered Civic models such as the base LX sedan deliver up to an EPA-estimated 32 MPG in the city, 41 MPG on the highway, and 36 MPG combined. The Civic Sport achieves slightly lower numbers at 31/39/34 MPG (City/Highway/Combined)[1].
Hybrid-powered Civic models are even more efficient, achieving up to an EPA-estimated 50 MPG in the city, 47 MPG on the highway, and 49 MPG combined. This makes the Civic Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid the best choices for drivers prioritizing fuel economy[1].
The Civic Type R, as the performance-oriented option, has the lowest fuel efficiency in the lineup but still reports an EPA-estimated 22 MPG city, 28 MPG highway, and 24 MPG combined[1].
For earlier model years, such as the 2022 Honda Civic, EPA fuel economy varies by trim and engine selection. Examples from the 2022 4-Door lineup include:
- Hybrid models: Up to 53.5 MPG EPA fuel economy and a total range over 500 miles per tank.
- Standard gasoline models: Ratings from 31 to nearly 34 MPG combined, depending on the trim and options, with ranges typically between 430 and over 550 miles on a full tank.
Overall, annual fuel costs for recent Honda Civics range from approximately $900 to $1,450 depending on engine and driving habits[2].
Real-world highway fuel economy for the 2025 Civic Hybrid Hatchback has been observed in the low-to-mid 40s MPG during steady highway cruising, highlighting that hybrid models offer their greatest efficiency in city driving conditions rather than at constant high speeds[3].
