The Mazda3 should be a little worried. That’s because the new Honda Civic happens to finally be good again, and this morning Honda unveiled what is undoubtedly the best version of it yet: the 2017 Civic Hatchback. It can be had with a turbo. And a manual!
Unlike those other body styles, the Civic Hatchback gets just one engine option, but it’s the good one: the 1.5-liter turbo four putting out 174 horsepower and 162 lb.-ft. of torque; that gets bumped to 180 HP in the Sport and an all-new Sport Touring trim.
It can also be had with Honda’s CVT, which as far as CVTs go is not that terrible, but why do that to yourself when the other option is a six-speed manual? I’m gonna tell you right now to buy that one instead.
