Honda Civic

I have heard that honda civic gives a very bad mileage in city driving conditions compared to other cars. What do you people have to say?

I don't think so since my gramps has one and it is a 2004 civic ex and he still gets 26 city 30 hwy. But he also drives slow as crap but still drop 2 miles off of that and you got 24 - 28 and that's still good for real driving conditions

kinda poor in milage but sure has good accelaration..

Here GM has introduced 'Spark' it gives about 47 miles per US gallon

You guys must have different standards than I do. A regular Civic should get 30+ mpg, and the hybrid version 40+. The sporty Si gets 27-28 mpg real-world. They are among the most efficient cars in America, at least. Honda's also making a diesel soon, and they have a fuel cell civic for lease that gets 100 mpg equivalent, I believe.

From my experience I don't believe there is anything special about the mileage on a civic. It's just another internal combustion motor. The only thing I like about them is the parts are so easy and readily available. I have a friend with a hybrid civic and yea it gets about 40 miles to the gallon but that's because it is a hybrid, and there are talks in the news now that talk about how much more waste is being produced by the electric companies because of everyone "plugging in" their cars now. I would say stick with a nice 4cyl civic and keep up with the maintenance!!!!! I even like the Accords (better) with the standard 2.2. My friend actually has a 2.0 Accord and gets great gas mileage (don't know exactly but it's a 5 speed). That's just my 2 cents.
