Performance
Impressive Performance
While the Civic Hybrid and Elantra Hybrid both use four-cylinder engines attached to electric motors, Honda customers will have a more exciting performance profile. The 2025 Honda Civic Hybrid will make 200 horsepower and 232 pound-feet of torque, outpacing the 139 horsepower produced by the Elantra Hybrid.
Fuel Economy
Normally, when there is such a performance disparity there is also an efficiency disparity. The 2025 Civic Hybrid can post 4.7 L/100 km in the city and 5.1 L/100 km on the highway, which is only a few tenths of a point from what the Elantra Hybrid can produce.
Design
Passenger Space
Both hybrid sedans have similar dimensions for passenger space. All five passengers in each vehicle will have nearly identical legroom measurements, separated by a few millimetres in the front and back seats.
Trunk Volume
Usability is still very important to the popularity of any sedan platform. The 2025 Civic Hybrid can offer up to 419 litres of trunk volume, which edges out the fewer than 410 litres available with the 2025 Elantra Hybrid.
Technology
Advanced Connectivity
Honda makes its most advanced technology readily available with the 2025 Civic Hybrid. Some of the impressive features include, Google Built-In, Amazon Alexa Built-In, and a premium Bose sound system. The 2025 Elantra Hybrid lacks many of those same connectivity options.
Safety
Each automaker offers its own suite of safety systems in the hybrid sedans. The 2025 Civic Hybrid is protected by a comprehensive array of sensors, including:
- Lane Keeping Assist System
- Forward Collision Warning
- Collision Mitigation Braking System
- Lane Departure Warning
