No longer just a trend, hybrids are becoming the norm for Australian passenger vehicles and SUVs but not all hybrid vehicles are created equal in terms of fuel savings and often come with a big upfront cost.
That’s why the Chasing Cars team set out to test Honda’s if the latest generation Civic is significantly more efficient in hybrid guise and if the savings at the fuel pump can help justify the $7800 jump in price.
We tested both the petrol and hybrid versions of the Civic across multiple urban and highway stints to see how they compare and also what they’re like to drive.
