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 1,921 listings available, which gives you 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 4.8/5 user rating and an 8.2/10 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. The expert summary also frames it as refined, capable, and more sophisticated than you might expect at this price point. If you want a compact sedan that feels polished while still being practical and efficient, this year’s Civic fits that use case well. With 32.2% of listings marked as good or great deals, there’s still meaningful value in the market.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. Reviewers repeatedly point to reliability, and the ownership commentary also emphasizes trouble-free use, value, and a car you can count on. The expert cost-effectiveness notes reinforce that this Civic is a good bet for low expected ownership costs and long-term dependability.

For used buyers, the main risk is less about the model’s reputation and more about how each individual car was maintained and driven.

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

At 48% 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 prior bodywork or multiple owners. Focus on overall condition, signs of wear in the cabin, and whether the technology and safety features still work as expected. Because this model was offered across several trims, it also helps to compare equipment carefully so you know what you’re giving up or gaining.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes LX, EX, EX-L, Si, HF, Hybrid, and Natural Gas, with the sedan available in all of them and the coupe in the first four. The LX covers the basics, while the EX adds aluminum wheels, automatic climate control, a power sunroof, two USB ports, a security system, automatic headlights, LaneWatch, Smart Entry, a 7-inch display, upgraded audio, and HondaLink. The EX-L adds leather seats, a power driver’s seat, heated front seats, heated mirrors, foglights, and larger wheels, making it the best-value choice if you want a more upscale feel.
• Powertrain: Most 2014 Civics use a 1.8-liter four-cylinder with 143 hp and a CVT. The setup is tuned for refinement and efficiency, and the transmission is meant to feel natural rather than intrusive.
• 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 EX and higher trims, while Forward Collision Warning is reserved for the Hybrid.
• Infotainment: Most models get a 7-inch touchscreen, and the system supports HondaLink, Siri Eyes Free, Bluetooth connectivity, music streaming, text messaging support, and a USB port. The EX and higher trims add the more advanced display and smartphone pairing features.
• Fuel efficiency: The CVT-equipped sedan is rated at 30 mpg city and 39 mpg highway, with 33 mpg combined. In testing, the car averaged 31.9 mpg.

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:

• LX: This is the simplest path into the Civic, and it already includes Bluetooth, music streaming, text messaging support, a USB port, and Pandora access. If you want the lowest-cost way to get the Civic’s core strengths, this is the trim to start with.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds a strong mix of convenience and tech upgrades, including Smart Entry, push-button start, HondaLink, the 7-inch display, LaneWatch, automatic climate control, a sunroof, and upgraded audio.
• EX-L: This is the right pick if you want the Civic to feel more upscale. Leather seats, heated front seats, a power driver’s seat, foglights, and larger wheels make it the most comfort-focused mainstream trim.

LaneWatch is standard on EX and higher trims, while Forward Collision Warning is limited to the Hybrid.

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

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, so you can shop patiently but still move quickly on the right car.

• Deal availability: 32.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,921 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 48.0% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $10,563, 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 $10,850 sits slightly above last year's $10,794.

That small increase suggests the Civic’s used-market value has remained stable rather than swinging sharply. For a future seller, that kind of pricing pattern is encouraging because it points to steady demand and predictable depreciation. The model’s reputation for reliability and value should continue to support buyer interest over time.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.8/5, 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 EX and higher trims, while Forward Collision Warning is limited to the Hybrid, and Lane Departure Warning is also reserved for the Hybrid. That trim-level split matters if you want the most advanced driver-assistance coverage.

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:

• 32.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 48% 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 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2014 adds updated tech like HondaLink, a 7-inch touchscreen, and LaneWatch on higher trims.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $12,151, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $10,850 average.
• It broadens the Civic’s appeal with stronger all-around refinement and broader owner praise.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the smarter buy because pricing is stable and inventory is healthy. If you’re willing to spend more for a newer model year, the 2015 is the cleaner upgrade path.

How does the 2014 Honda Civic compare to the 2014 Toyota Corolla?

Our experts score the 2014 Honda Civic 8.2/10 and the 2014 Toyota Corolla 8/10.

The Civic brings a stronger overall package if you care about refinement, technology, and a more polished driving feel. The Corolla counters with a lower starting price, but the Civic offers more power, a better expert score, and a richer feature set in the trims that matter most. If you want the more engaging and better-equipped compact sedan, the Civic has the edge.
