2007 Honda Civic Hybrid consumer reviews

This car will last you or your family an incredibly long time. Everyone in my family has one and they don't ever die! Big fan.

I like its comfort and stability, big space internally and for luggage. I do long trips with it without problem.

It is a very good reliable car. Ours has almost 200,000 miles and has only had one major issue. A little after 100,000 miles the hybrid battery failed. The car stills works fine without it and stills gets okay fuel economy. If you buy one used then the hybrid battery is not worth it. Other than that it is a great reliable car.

I bought the car due to a long commute and I saved more money than the average driver. Bought used and it has never given me problems even after excessive mileage.

The hybrid batteries cost 3k to replace and most all hybrids max out at 140k making an unavoidable purchase in the future. Wonderful car! Great gas!

I purchased my 2007 civic hybrid with 170,000 miles five years ago. Since then I have put another 97,000 miles on the car and have honestly driven it quite vigorously and most often the car is in sports mode. With that said I can proudly say that I have never had a single problem with the car. If properly maintained this car will run smoothly for at least the first 300,000 miles. The interior is very unique and functional, the digital speedometer also sets the interior apart and is much more visually enjoyable to observe. Most of the small repairs and maintenance I can do myself and are usually pretty cheap. I could continue to praise this car and how well it has served me. All of this combined with the great gas mileage and safety rating makes this a perfect first car or daily commuter.

I bought my 07 used with 75k miles, I had owned few in the past with good results sold each one at 180,000 miles. I do all the maintenance myself using OEM parts and take care of my cars. This car has a lot of problems, first the IMA battery went, luckily I was still under warranty and it was replaced at no cost but then the CVT went, and guess what the repair bill is $4800, which I do not intend to fix through them, so yeah no wonder Prius if kicking honda **s

I've had my vehicle for 2 years and I've replace all engine mounts. Plus, the IMA batter light came on.... hybrid's are too much maintenance, disappointed in the vehicle I've purchased. Contacted Honda, zero help.

I was instantly drawn to 2006-2011 Civic for its great look, inside and out. The design car out seven years ago and still looks sharper, better than warm-over, more recent Civic. My friend had a 2006 Civic and I loved the way the speedometer and interior looked. So when my 2005 Scion xB was totaled, I decided to give it a shot. I wanted a hybrid for the excellent fuel economy, so I narrowed my search down to between the Civic Hybrid and Toyota Prius. Obviously, the Civic won out. Firstly, what I like most about my Civic is the excellent looking interior, with the futuristic speedometer, AUX port located right where you want it for playing music, and the Navy blue seats and two-tone dashboard. I also like the somewhat dorky looking hubcaps. My average MPGs fall between 35 and 40, depending on how much highway driving I do and if I use the A/C or heater. Highway driving is smooth and predictable. On the negative side, the hybrid powertrain appears unrefined at times. On occasion, the car will tend to jerk forward if i press the gas pedal right after releasing the brake. Although this isn't a huge deal, it can become annoying at times. Also, I can never quite find the sweet spot when adjusting my seat. Finally, oil changes have more than doubled for me since losing my Scion and now cost around $85 on average for the hybrid's synthetic oil. Although this isn't a perfect car, it is still a good car and has not given me any issues thus far. In hindsight, I wish I went for another boxy car because I miss the room my xB gave me. However, it's antiquated 4-speed transmission and obtrusive shape could not help it match the fuel economy of my Civic. Although the Civic doesn't achieve the 50mpg it first claimed, it is still a great car and I am happy with my purchase.

I have had my 07 for 3-1/2 years and can't wait to be able to get another car. I have yet to get the 40 MPH that it is known for. Overall for a compact it is compares to other cars of the same catagory. I purchased this model based on the reviews for its gas mileage since I travel up to 600 per week on my route. Needless to say I am disappointed in the performance of the cars and the reviews I read concerning this model. I will not recommend this car and do not plan on getting another Honda.
