Honda: Where Practicality Meets Performance

Best Overall Car & Best Small Car: 2025 Honda Civic

The 2025 Honda Civic has claimed two honours in the Best Overall Car and Best Small Car categories proving once again, that the Canadian-built icon remains at the top of its class. With some styling tweaks for the 2025 model year, the Civic lineup includes the ever-popular sedan, hatchback, hybrid and Type-R performance variants. Known for its dynamic performance, comfortable interior and great fuel economy (as low as 4.9L/100km), the Civic makes it easy to see why so many Canadians regard it as their preferred choice for an all-rounded compact car.
