How much does the 2019 Honda Civic cost?

Prices have softened 4.62% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 2,983 listings available, which suggests you have a healthy amount of inventory to compare.

Is the 2019 Honda Civic a good car?

Yes — the 2019 Honda Civic earns a 4.71/5 user rating and a 7.83/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Safety at 9/10.

Owners consistently praise its reliability, comfort, and safety, and they also like its stylish appearance and good fuel economy. That lines up well with the Civic’s broad appeal as a compact car that feels polished without giving up everyday practicality. If you want a small car that balances value, driving enjoyment, and everyday usability, this model year fits that brief well. With 30.9% of listings marked as good or great deals, the market still offers some attractive opportunities.

Is the 2019 Honda Civic reliable?

Owners rate it 4.71/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback highlights reliability, and the expert evaluation reinforces that the Civic feels built to last, with switchgear, buttons, and fabrics that feel durable. The driving impression also points to a car you can count on day to day, with smooth, refined powertrains and a chassis that stays composed over time. Honda also includes standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, which helps reduce the frustration of living with the dated factory interface. For used buyers, the main long-term ownership risk is making sure the specific car you choose has been maintained well and doesn’t have hidden wear from prior use.

What should I look for when buying a used 2019 Honda Civic?

At 52.2% 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 you’re considering a higher-mileage example or one with a price that looks unusually low. Focus on condition, maintenance records, and signs of prior bodywork or repair quality, since those factors matter more when a large portion of the market has accident history. If the car has the features you want, make sure they all work as expected before you commit.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Civic brings upscale style, a high-quality interior feel, and a simplified cabin layout, while the Sport trim adds a center-mounted exhaust and some of the exterior flash of the Si for less money.
• Powertrain: LX and Sport sedans and coupes use a 2.0-liter inline 4-cylinder with 158 horsepower and 138 pound-feet of torque, while EX and above trims get a turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-4 with 174 hp and 162 lb-ft. The turbo engine is the better pick if you want quicker response and stronger mid-range acceleration.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing is standard on every trim except the Si and Type R. It includes forward-collision alert with emergency braking, lane-keep assist, and adaptive cruise control.
• Infotainment: Standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are included, and Honda’s Garmin-based navigation is a standout. The system itself feels dated and slower than newer Honda interfaces.
• Fuel efficiency: The turbo engine is described as the better all-around choice for response and acceleration, and the CVT is praised for avoiding the strained feel some rivals have.

Which 2019 Honda Civic trim should I buy?

The 2019 Honda Civic is offered in 5 trim levels: LX, Sport, EX, Touring, Si.

Here's the short version:

• LX: This is the entry point, and it gives you the Civic’s core strengths at the lowest price. It makes sense if you want the basics and plan to keep costs down, but you’ll miss some of the nicer convenience and powertrain upgrades found higher up.
• Sport: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds more visual flair and a sportier personality without jumping to the pricier upper trims. If you want a Civic that feels a little more special without overspending, this is the one to look at first.
• EX: This is the trim CarGurus recommends, and it’s the sweet spot if you want the turbo engine, moonroof, power driver’s seat, and touchscreen. It gives you the best balance of features and value.
• Touring: This is the most upscale mainstream Civic trim, with LED headlights, navigation, and the top-tier stereo. Choose it if you want the most comfort and tech, and you’re willing to pay for it.
• Si: This is the enthusiast choice, with a stronger turbo engine and a manual transmission only. It’s the right pick if driving enjoyment matters more than comfort-focused convenience.

Honda Sensing is standard on every trim except the Si and Type R.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2019 Honda Civic?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop patiently but should move quickly on strong listings.

• Deal availability: 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 2,983 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.62% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 52.2% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $17,154, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2019 Honda Civic's resale value?

The current average of $17,421 sits slightly below last year's $18,265.

That price movement suggests the Civic has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help future sellers if they buy at the right price today. A lower entry cost gives you more room to preserve value over your ownership period. The Civic’s broad appeal and strong reputation should help support demand, especially for well-kept examples with desirable equipment.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.71/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2019 Honda Civic safe?

The 2019 Honda Civic earns five-star ratings from NHTSA, with four-star ratings for the coupe’s passenger-side frontal crash test.

It earns a 9/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard on every trim except the Si and Type R. It includes forward-collision alert with emergency braking, lane-keep assist, and adaptive cruise control. The IIHS rated earlier Civic models with top Good results in all six crash tests, and it rated the crash-prevention system Superior. The main caveat is that the 2019 model itself was not directly rated by IIHS.

Should I buy a 2019 Honda Civic or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2019 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2019 if:

• 30.9% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 52.2% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 4.62% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.71/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• Honda made only minor tweaks while keeping the Civic’s style, value, and performance formula intact.

Consider the 2020 if:

• At $18,747, the 2020 costs more than the current year's $17,421 average.
• Minor design tweaks, more standard safety and convenience features, and more manual transmissions are the key upgrades.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2019 is the smarter buy because it delivers the Civic’s core strengths at a lower average price. If you’re willing to pay more for a slightly updated version with more standard features, the 2020 is the better path. For price-sensitive shoppers, the 2019 remains the more compelling choice.
