How much does the 2024 Honda Civic cost?

Prices have softened 1.22% compared to this time last year, making it a favorable time to shop this model year.

There are 5,330 listings available, which suggests solid inventory for comparison shopping.

If you find a listing below $24,055.98, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

Is the 2024 Honda Civic a good car?

Yes — the 2024 Honda Civic earns a 4.5/5 user rating and an 8.0/10 expert rating. The standout strength is Technology at 10/10.

Owners consistently praise the car’s new look, interior design, and driving experience, and they especially like the smooth manual shifting and great gas mileage. That lines up with the Civic Si’s use-case as an enthusiast-focused compact sedan that still works as an everyday car.

The main trade-offs are that all-wheel drive is not available and the brakes can’t withstand repeated hard use. The market still looks healthy, with 32.6% of listings marked as good or great deals.

Is the 2024 Honda Civic reliable?

Owners rate it 4.5/5, a strong signal of long-term satisfaction.

The owner feedback points to a car that feels satisfying to live with over time, especially because drivers highlight the smooth shifting, great gas mileage, and overall driving enjoyment. That kind of positive day-to-day experience usually matters most when you’re trying to count on a used car for regular commuting.

The expert evaluation also describes the Civic Si as surprisingly docile in urban and suburban driving, with a suspension that stays connected without beating you up. Honda Service Pass with complimentary scheduled maintenance for the first two years and 24,000 miles adds a helpful ownership perk early on.

For used buyers, the biggest long-term risk is that a sporty, manual-transmission car can be more sensitive to hard use, so condition and maintenance history matter a lot.

What should I look for when buying a used 2024 Honda Civic?

Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.

You should still check the history report carefully, because a clean listing percentage does not replace a proper records review. Prioritize a pre-purchase inspection that focuses on braking condition, since the expert evaluation noted heat-related brake vibration during hard mountain driving. You should also pay close attention to cabin noise, since owners mention road and wind noise.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The Si stands apart with stealthy exterior cues, red interior accents, metal pedal covers, and an aluminum shift knob, while the cabin still uses a high-quality digital layout and touchscreen setup.
• Powertrain: A turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder makes 200 horsepower and 192 pound-feet of torque, paired with a close-ratio six-speed manual, rev-matching, a helical limited-slip differential, and front-wheel drive.
• Safety package: Honda Sensing includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, automatic high-beam headlights, driver monitoring, traffic sign recognition, and a rear seat reminder system.
• Infotainment: Every car gets an 8-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Bluetooth, text-messaging support, SiriusXM satellite radio, HD Radio, and HondaLink connected services.
• Fuel efficiency: The EPA says it should return 31 mpg in combined driving, and the test route averaged 29.5 mpg.

Which 2024 Honda Civic trim should I buy?

The 2024 Honda Civic is offered in 1 trim level: Civic Si.

Here's the short version:

Civic Si: This is the only trim, so your decision is really about whether you want the Si’s enthusiast-focused setup: the turbocharged engine, manual transmission, limited-slip differential, larger brakes, and sportier chassis tuning. It suits you best if you want a compact sedan that feels genuinely rewarding to drive and you’re comfortable giving up automatic convenience. The best-value trim is the Civic Si because there isn’t a lower rung to climb from.

Honda Sensing is standard, but the driver-assistance tuning can be irritating, so you should test those systems carefully before buying.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2024 Honda Civic?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market.

• Deal availability: 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 5,330 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.22% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 84.8% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $24,055.98, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2024 Honda Civic's resale value?

The current average of $25,318 sits slightly below last year's $25,630.

That modest decline suggests the market has softened a bit, which can help you buy more confidently now. For a future seller, it also means you should expect resale value to depend heavily on condition, mileage, and how well the car has been maintained.

Because this model has strong enthusiast appeal, a clean, well-kept example should remain easier to move than a neglected one. The manual transmission and sporty character can help sustain demand among the right buyers.

Vehicles with strong owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4.5/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2024 Honda Civic safe?

The 2024 Honda Civic sedan earns five-star ratings from NHTSA overall, and it also earned a Top Safety Pick rating from IIHS. It earns a 4/10 safety score from our experts.

Honda Sensing is standard and includes forward collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, lane-centering assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, adaptive cruise control, automatic high-beam headlights, driver monitoring, traffic sign recognition, and a rear seat reminder system.

The caveat is that the driver-assistance tuning can be irritating in real-world use. The lane-keeping and lane-centering systems can tug at the wheel in ways you may not like, and adaptive cruise control can react awkwardly in changing traffic.

Should I buy a 2024 Honda Civic or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2024 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2024 if:

• 32.6% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Accident-free inventory is solid at 84.8% — always verify the vehicle history report.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 1.22% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4.5/5 — a strong satisfaction signal.
• The 2024 Civic Si keeps the manual-only, enthusiast-focused formula with a turbocharged engine and limited-slip differential.

Consider the 2025 if:

• At $25,615, the 2025 costs more than the current year's $25,318 average.
• Honda divides the Civic lineup by powertrain for clearer shopper choice.

The bottom line: If you want the better-value enthusiast pick, the 2024 is the smarter buy because pricing has eased and the Si formula is already well established. If you’re willing to pay more for a newer model year and a refreshed lineup structure, the 2025 is worth a look, but price-sensitive buyers should focus on the 2024.
