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.

There are 1,826 listings available, which gives you a solid amount of inventory to compare. If you find a listing below $10,577.48, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic a good car?

Yes — the 4.75/5 user rating points to strong owner satisfaction, and the expert rating is 8.17/10. 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. The cabin is also a recurring strength, with many owners highlighting the spacious interior and comfortable seating. In practical terms, that makes it a strong fit if you want a compact car that balances daily usability with a good feature set for the money.

The market also looks reasonably supportive, with 26.8% of listings marked as good or great deals.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic reliable?

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

Owners repeatedly describe it as reliable and value-focused, and the expert review also points to astounding reliability, trouble-free ownership, and low expected costs over time. The driving impression reinforces that dependability theme, with refined power delivery and a transmission that feels unobtrusive in normal use. HondaLink and the rest of the tech package add convenience without changing the car’s core reputation for durability.

For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is less about mechanical drama and more about finding a well-kept example that has been maintained consistently.

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

At 50.1% 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 had bodywork or shows uneven panel gaps, tire wear, or interior wear that doesn’t match the mileage. Focus on condition first, because the strongest examples are likely to be the ones that still feel tight, quiet, and well cared for. If you’re comparing multiple listings, use the inspection to separate clean, well-maintained cars from those that only look good in photos.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The LX is the most basic 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 wheels.
• Powertrain: The main 1.8-liter 4-cylinder makes 143 hp and 129 lb-ft of torque, and the CVT improves efficiency while staying smooth and unobtrusive in normal driving. The EPA rating is 30 mpg city, 39 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined.
• Safety package: Standard equipment includes an expanded-view driver’s side mirror, a reversing camera, and SmartVent front side-impact airbags. LaneWatch is standard on EX and higher trims, while the Civic Hybrid gets Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning.
• Infotainment: Most models get a 7-inch touchscreen, and the system supports Bluetooth connectivity, music streaming, text messaging support, a USB port, Pandora Internet radio, HondaLink, and Siri Eyes Free. The interface can feel distracting, so test it carefully before you buy.
• Fuel efficiency: The CVT-equipped sedan is rated at 30 mpg city, 39 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined, and the review notes a real-world average of 31.9 mpg during mixed driving.

Which 2014 Honda Civic trim should I buy?

The 2014 Honda Civic is offered in 7 trim levels: LX, EX, EX-L, Si, HF, Hybrid, and Natural Gas.

Here's the short version:

• Base trim: The LX gives you the essentials, but it skips the more desirable convenience and tech upgrades found higher up the range.
• Sweet-spot trim: The EX is the best all-around value because it adds the biggest everyday upgrades, including Smart Entry, push-button start, LaneWatch, the 7-inch display, and HondaLink.
• Premium/top trim: The EX-L is the best choice if you want a more upscale cabin, with leather, heated front seats, an 8-way power driver’s seat, and more comfort-focused equipment.
• Off-road trim: The Si is the performance-oriented choice, but its firmer setup and larger wheels make it less ideal if you want the most relaxed daily-driver experience.

The Civic Hybrid stands out for its Top Safety Pick Plus rating and standard Forward Collision Warning, while Lane Departure Warning is also limited to that trim.

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

This is a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you have room to shop carefully without expecting deep discounts everywhere.

• Deal availability: 26.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,826 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 50.1% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $10,577.48, 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 $11,317 sits slightly below last year's $11,343.

That small decline suggests the market has stayed relatively stable rather than swinging sharply in either direction. For you, that usually means resale risk is manageable if you buy a clean example at the right price. A car that’s already holding close to its prior-year value can be easier to move later, especially if it has strong condition and a clean history.

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?

It earns a Top Safety Pick rating from the IIHS and a five-star overall rating from NHTSA.

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

Standard safety equipment includes an expanded-view driver’s side mirror, a reversing camera, and SmartVent front side-impact airbags. The Civic EX and higher trims add LaneWatch, which shows traffic on the right side of the vehicle, while the optional navigation system adds a multi-angle reversing camera with a 180-degree view. The main caveat is that Forward Collision Warning is limited to the Civic Hybrid, so most trims miss out on that extra driver-assistance feature.

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:

• 26.8% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 50.1% 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.
• The 2014 adds a stronger tech package, including HondaLink and a 7-inch display on many trims.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $12,194, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $11,317 average.
• It adds a more refined overall package with stronger emphasis on reliability and value.

The bottom line: If you want the better value play, the 2014 is the smarter starting point because pricing is stable and inventory is broad. If you’re willing to pay more for a newer model-year alternative, the 2015 is the cleaner upgrade path.
