[AliAhmed]

The 2018 Honda Civic sedan starts at $18,940. Civic hatchback and coupe models are priced slightly higher, at $20,150 and $19,350, respectively. The base trim includes features like a rearview camera, Bluetooth, a 5-inch display screen, and a USB port. Competitors like the Kia Soul ($16,200) start at a much lower price and come with similar standard features, but the Civic with an optional continuously variable automatic transmission ($800) offers Honda Sensing in the base trim for $1,000 in sedan and hatchback models. Honda Sensing adds features like forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and adaptive cruise control. To get similar features in the Soul, you’d spend $5,660 more than you would on the Civic sedanThe Honda Accord is a midsize car and has more passenger room and cargo space than the compact Civic. That’s not a knock against the Civic’s spacious interior, though. The Accord is also fully redesigned for 2018; it comes with a larger standard infotainment screen (7 inches vs. 5 inches) and an extra USB port. The Accord features the standard Honda Sensing suite of advanced safety technology, including collision mitigation braking, lane keep assist, and road departure mitigation. Additionally, the Accord has a higher predicted reliability rating than the Civic. While the Accord belongs to a larger class and is an awesome car in its own regard, the Civic costs about $4,600 less. You could choose a higher Civic trim level and/or add packages or extra features for the same money you would spend on an Accord. The Civic is available in a few body styles, as well as some performance-oriented versions. If you truly need the extra room that the Accord offers, go for it. Otherwise, the Civic is a good – and less expensive – alternative.
