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 1,933 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 repeatedly praise its reliability, value for money, and smooth driving character. That lines up with the overview’s emphasis on a refined, well-rounded sedan that delivers safety, reliability, fuel efficiency, and technology without pushing you far beyond the compact-car price range.

With 30.0% of listings marked as good or great deals, you still have room to shop selectively.

Is the 2014 Honda Civic reliable?

Owners rate it 4.8/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction. The owner summary points to reliability, solid performance, and a car that drives smoothly, while the expert notes call it a good bet for trouble-free ownership with low expected costs over time.

The performance write-up also reinforces that dependability theme by describing the engine and transmission as refined, unobtrusive, and easy to live with. If you’re buying used, the main long-term risk is less about the Civic’s core durability and more about finding one that has been maintained well and hasn’t picked up avoidable wear.

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

At 49.6% 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 higher mileage or visible cosmetic wear. Focus on signs of past bodywork, uneven panel gaps, tire wear, and any issues with the cabin electronics or infotainment controls, since those are the kinds of details that can separate a clean example from a merely average one.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The lineup includes LX, EX, EX-L, Si, HF, Hybrid, and Natural Gas, with the sedan available across the range and the coupe limited to the first four trims. 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, Smart Entry, a 7-inch display, HondaLink, and LaneWatch. The EX-L adds leather seats, a power driver’s seat, heated front seats, heated side mirrors, foglights, and larger wheels, making it the best-value choice if you want more comfort and convenience.
• 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 refined. The performance notes emphasize adequate power, smooth operation, and strong efficiency, with the CVT adding to the car’s easygoing character.
• Safety package: The Civic uses Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure, and standard equipment includes 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 Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning are 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, a USB port, and Pandora Internet radio. The EX and higher trims add the more advanced display and smartphone pairing features, but the interface can feel distracting to use.
• Fuel efficiency: The Civic sedan with the 1.8-liter engine and CVT is rated at 30 mpg city, 39 mpg highway, and 33 mpg combined. The cost-effectiveness notes also point out that real-world mileage may come in a bit below the EPA estimate.

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 way into the Civic, and it gives you the core ownership experience without extra frills. It makes sense if you want the lowest-cost path into the model and do not need the added convenience features found higher up.
• EX: This is the best-value trim for most shoppers because it adds the biggest everyday upgrades, including Smart Entry, push-button start, HondaLink, the 7-inch display, LaneWatch, and more comfort and convenience equipment.
• EX-L: This is the pick if you want the most upscale feel in the gas lineup, thanks to leather, heated front seats, a power driver’s seat, heated mirrors, foglights, and larger wheels.

The safety-package note to keep in mind is that LaneWatch is standard on the EX and higher trims, while Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning are limited to the Hybrid.

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 patiently and still find worthwhile options.

• Deal availability: 30.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 1,933 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have held steady compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 49.6% 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 $11,002 sits slightly above last year's $10,983.

That small increase suggests the Civic has held its value well rather than swinging sharply in either direction. For you as a future seller, that kind of stability is helpful because it points to steady buyer interest and a market that is not being pressured by steep depreciation.

The Civic’s reputation for reliability and low ownership costs also supports demand when it’s time to resell. Well-kept examples should remain easier to move than cars with unclear history or visible wear.

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 5-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.

Honda’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure is a core part of the Civic’s safety story, and standard equipment includes 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 Forward Collision Warning and Lane Departure Warning are limited to the Hybrid.

One caveat is that the strongest driver-assistance content is not spread evenly across the lineup, so you need to pay attention to trim level if those features matter to you.

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:

• 30.0% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 49.6% 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 4.8/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Expert summary: It delivers refinement, safety, efficiency, and value without needing a big budget.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $12,166, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $11,002 average.
• It adds a stronger all-around emphasis on reliability, safety, fuel efficiency, quality, and value.

The 2014 is the better path if you want a steadier price and a well-rounded ownership experience. If you can spend more and want the next model year’s broader polish, the 2015 is the cleaner upgrade for price-insensitive buyers.

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 has the edge if you want a more refined driving feel, stronger tech, and a richer feature set in higher trims. The Corolla is the simpler, cheaper alternative, but the Civic’s better expert score and stronger equipment story make it the more compelling all-around pick here.

The Civic also offers more listings and a slightly lower average used price, which can make shopping easier. The Corolla counters with a slightly higher share of good and great deals, so it can still be the better value if you find the right example.
