2010 Honda Civic Hybrid

"I was so psyced to finally get a car like this. 40-45 miles per gallon (depending on your driving style). I was all set to take on the world. The second day I started it up and there was a light on the display panel telling me there was something taht wasn't working correctly. I took it right back to the dealer and they said they would take care of it right away at no charge to me.

"Nice car, easy to manuver and comfortable. However I will never want a hybrid again. My car currently has 900 miles on it and already Im ready to trade it in. I will lose my butt on it but I cant stand the way it does the auto stop thing. The jerky motions of starting up. And dont even try to inch up to a parking spot, as you will most likely hit whats in front of you. I say forget the gas issue and get a regular engine.

"If you have ever owned a Honda, you probably bought another one. Honda is the best value for the money.For me, I fell in love with the Civic two cars ago, but this time I treated myself to the Hybrid.40-45 mpg is not accurate, but conservative estimates. I average 45-55 mpg, and took a 500 mile road trip never stopping for gas.The more you drive your car, the better mileage you get, depending on your habits.

Cons: Battery flaws Pros: None - this car is useless Do not buy this car, Honda will not honor the gurantee policy for the battery. I bought mine new in 2009 and soon after the IMA light went on. I was told that it was normal and with some arrangements they temporalily "fixed" the problem. A few days later the front electric windows started opening by themselves and the IMA light went on permanently.

"Just that. its a solid buy. Worth getting the bells and whistles if you can. Kind of fun to drive- though not my RX-7"

"I have owned several more expensive cars, but this is the most comfortable and gets the best gas mileage by far. I got 50 mpg in the warmer periods in flat country. Now I live in the mountains and am getting 40 mpg in the nasty winter. Despite not being in a garage at all, it always starts and runs well, even when temperature is below zero.With ABS and traction control, it has handled the snow and ice very well."
