Overview
Although the longstanding rivalry between the Honda Accord and Toyota Camry midsize sedans is well documented, a surprising number of buyers cross-shop the latter against the smaller Civic. While front-seat dimensions are surprisingly similar, the Camry offers significantly more rear-seat space than the Civic. The Toyota has more cargo space, too, though the Civic hatchback evens the playing field. However, what the Civic lacks in size, it makes up for in maneuverability, flexibility, and efficiency. The Camry is available with all-wheel drive, more powerful standard engines—including a V6 option—and as a fuel-efficient hybrid. However, the Civic’s gasoline-powered 4-cylinder engines are more economical than the Camry’s. Also, with its available manual transmission—not to mention the Civic Si and Type R performance variants—the Civic has a sporting flair that even the surprisingly good Camry TRD simply can’t match. All of this notwithstanding, if price is the single most important factor, the Civic has a clear advantage.
