2008 Honda Civic Hybrid Owner Reviews

I have owned Hondas and Toyotas. Hondas consistently provide superior, more stable, safer handling, over various driving conditions. This was my primary reason for choosing the Civic Hybrid over the Prius. I drive a combination of city and highway. The government rates the Civic Hybrid at 40 mpg city and 45 mpg highway. I don't get 40 mpg in the city. I get 36 mpg in the city. But compared to nearly all other cars, 36 real world mpg in city driving is pretty phenomenal. On the highway I …

Real world overall average mpg exceeding my expectations. Excellent handling. Excellent driveability. I like a small car, but I want it to have superior handling and control. I have owned Accords in the past. The Civic Hybrid delivers the superior handling and control that I want. The Civic Hybrid is also responsive and has good pickup. It is not a high-performance sports car, but it is more than sufficient to meet all the demands of driving in all city traffic conditions.

I purchased a slightly used 2008 HCH currently has about 7500 miles now had under 4800 miles when I purchased it. Been very pleased with MPG, still learning how to maximize the fuel mileage. Doing between 47 to 53 MPG, but goal is 60+. Not sure what is wrong with the guy getting only 30 MPG, since if I drag raced I could still get higher than that. Important part is to manage the battery by giving the car times to regenerate power while coasting and stopping. Battery gets low more fuel used…

this is a great car i get believe it or not on average 58mpg true i drive like a little old lady and never over 60 on the hiway if you slow down you get the miles no bs frank roche raynham ma
