How much does the 2014 Honda Civic cost?

Prices have held steady compared to this time last year, signaling a stable and predictable market for this model year.

With 1,803 listings available, you have a solid amount of inventory to compare before you buy.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic a good car?

Yes — the 2014 Honda Civic earns a 4.75/5 user rating and an 8.17/10 expert rating. The model scores 9/10 across Form and function, Cost effectiveness, and Technology.

Owners consistently praise its reliability, value for money, and smooth driving feel, while also noting that it feels well kept and solid on the road. The overview frames it as a refined, capable compact sedan with broad everyday appeal, which fits the owner feedback well. Even with some complaints about seating comfort and infotainment usability, the overall package looks strong for shoppers who want a polished daily driver. Good and great deals account for 29.2% of listings, so there is still some room to shop selectively.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic reliable?

Owners rate it 4.75/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

Owner feedback repeatedly points to reliability, and the review summary also emphasizes value for money and a smooth, solid driving experience. The expert assessment reinforces that theme by describing the Civic as a good bet for trouble-free ownership and low expected costs over time. It also notes that Honda’s ownership costs are expected to stay manageable, which matters if you plan to keep the car for years. For used buyers, the main long-term risk is buying a neglected example, so condition and maintenance history matter.

What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Honda Civic?

At 47.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle history report and then prioritize a pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has been in a prior collision. Focus on body alignment, paint consistency, tire wear, and any signs that the car has been repaired poorly. If you are comparing multiple listings, put the cleanest, best-documented example at the top of your list.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the simplest version, while the EX adds aluminum wheels, automatic climate control, a power sunroof, two USB ports, a security system, automatic headlights, LaneWatch, Smart Entry with push-button ignition, a 7-inch display, upgraded audio, and HondaLink. The EX-L adds leather seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, heated front seats, heated side mirrors, foglights, and 17-inch aluminum wheels, with navigation and additional audio features available on the reviewed version.
• Powertrain: The main engine is a 1.8-liter 4-cylinder with 143 hp and 129 lb-ft of torque, paired with a CVT that is tuned to feel natural and unobtrusive. The setup is described as refined and adequate, with a combined fuel economy rating of 33 mpg.
• Safety package: The Civic includes an Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure, an expanded-view driver’s side mirror, a reversing camera, and SmartVent front side-impact airbags. LaneWatch is standard on the EX and higher trims, while the Hybrid gets Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning that other trims do not.
• Infotainment: Most models get a 7-inch touchscreen display, and the LX includes Bluetooth connectivity, music streaming, text messaging support, a USB port, and Pandora Internet radio. The EX adds HondaLink smartphone pairing and services, and the system supports Siri Eyes Free when paired with an iPhone.
• Fuel efficiency: The Civic sedan with the CVT is rated at 30 mpg city, 39 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined. The review also notes a real-world average of 31.9 mpg during a week of driving.

Which 2014 Honda Civic trim should I buy?

The 2014 Honda Civic is offered in 6 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Si, HF, Hybrid, and Natural Gas.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, and it makes the most sense if you want the lowest-cost way into the Civic without giving up the core strengths of the car. It includes the basics you need, plus Bluetooth, music streaming, text messaging support, a USB port, and Pandora Internet radio.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the biggest everyday upgrades without pushing the price too far. You get aluminum wheels, automatic climate control, a power sunroof, two USB ports, a security system, automatic headlights, LaneWatch, Smart Entry with push-button ignition, a 7-inch display, upgraded audio, and HondaLink.
• EX-L: Choose this if you want the more upscale Civic experience. It adds leather seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, heated front seats, heated side mirrors, foglights, and 17-inch aluminum wheels, with navigation and extra audio features available on the reviewed version.
• Si: This is the performance-oriented choice, with a revised suspension, slight power gains, and larger 18-inch wheels.
• HF: This trim is aimed at fuel-conscious buyers who want efficiency first.
• Hybrid: This is the trim to consider if you want the most advanced safety content, including Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning, along with the strongest safety recognition in the lineup.
• Natural Gas: This version is for buyers who want the compressed natural gas setup, and it also gains a leather interior and navigation.

The EX is the best-value pick for most used shoppers, while the Hybrid stands out if safety features are your top priority.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Honda Civic?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop carefully and still find worthwhile listings.

• Deal availability: 29.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,803 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 47.6% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $10,578, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Honda Civic's resale value?

The current average of $11,214 sits slightly below last year's $11,216.

That small change suggests the Civic’s market has been stable rather than volatile, which is helpful if you plan to sell later. A steady price pattern usually means buyers still see value in the car, even as it ages. The Civic’s reputation for reliability and low ownership costs should continue to support demand among used shoppers. Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.75/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic safe?

The 2014 Honda Civic earns a five-star overall rating from NHTSA and a Top Safety Pick rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

It earns an 8/10 safety score from our experts.

The Civic includes an Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure, an expanded-view driver’s side mirror, a reversing camera, and SmartVent front side-impact airbags as standard equipment. LaneWatch is standard on the EX and higher trims, while the Hybrid gets Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning that are not offered on other trims. That means the safety story is strong overall, but some of the most advanced driver-assistance features are limited to the Hybrid.

Should I buy a 2014 Honda Civic or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 29.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 47.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.75/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• It adds a more refined feel, stronger tech, and a polished overall package for the money.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $12,240, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $11,214 average.
• It broadens the appeal with a more straightforward, well-rounded compact-car formula.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the smarter starting point because pricing is stable and inventory is healthy. If you are willing to spend more for a newer model year, the 2015 is the cleaner alternative for buyers who want a slightly more modern ownership experience.
