2025 Toyota Corolla vs 2025 Honda Civic
When it comes to a reliable urban vehicle, the 2025 Toyota Corolla is a sedan you can trust. Comfortable, cutting-edge, and tuned for performance, the Corolla gets you around safely and in style. Just how does it compare to some of its closest competition on the market, though? We decided to compare it to Honda’s most well-known sedan, the Civic. Read on with the team here at Westminster Toyota to see which one has the edge.
All-Wheel Drive
The first major hurdle the Honda Civic fails to clear is in the realm of all-wheel drive. It’s a solid rear-wheel drive sedan, but it just doesn’t offer an all-wheel model for the driver who wants more stability on treacherous roads. The 2025 Toyota Corolla doesn’t come standard with all-wheel drive, but it is an available feature on numerous models. If you’re looking for the kind of handling only all-wheel drive can provide, the Corolla is the option for you.
Horsepower
Not only does the Honda Civic fall short on all-wheel drive, it also comes up a bit short on sheer standard engine output. The 2.0L I4 engine in the Civic only generates around 150 horsepower and 133 lb.-ft. of engine torque. The Corolla has a zippier 2.0L 4-cylinder which can output 169 horsepower and 151 lb.-ft. of torque, which means it accelerates faster and handles better. Better yet, it outperforms the Honda’s engine while still offering nearly identical combined fuel efficiency of 6.7L/100km compared to the Civic’s 6.5L/100km.
Cost
When it comes to features and technology, the 2025 Toyota Corolla and the Honda Civic are pretty comparable. One major difference, however, is the cost of the automobile. The Corolla starts at just $26,852, while the entry level Civic is $30,805 for similar features and less horsepower. For just $1,000 more than the basic Honda Civic, you could upgrade to an all-wheel drive Corolla hybrid.
