For ages, these two compact cars have been rivals, competing to take the top spot in their category. 2019 Honda Civic or 2019 Corolla? This is the simple question that we will discuss in this blog.

Longueuil Honda, the Honda dealer on the South Shore of Montreal, invites you to join them in comparing the two vehicles.

2019 Civic Vs 2019 Corolla

First, it is important to notice that the Civic gets a makeover in 2019, while the Corolla remains largely unchanged and is only available in a sedan version, while the Honda Civic can be either a sedan, a coupe or a hatchback.

Both cars have a reputation for being reliable, durable and affordable. The new Honda Civic underwent a makeover in 2016 with its more elongated but equally sporty design, while the Corolla has remained relatively the same since 2014, despite a facelift in 2017.

As the Toyota Corolla has been on the market for longer than the Honda Civic, the latter has a younger, bolder look than the Corolla, which has a slightly outdated body. In addition, while the exterior dimensions of both sedan cars are roughly identical, the Civic comes in several versions that make it sportier and more aggressive than its rival. The 2019 Corolla Hatchback may come in handy, but the Civic stands out with its numerous and more versatile versions, making the variety much larger at Honda.

In addition, the interior of the Honda Civic is more luxurious than that of the Corolla, as when you compare the two high-end versions of these compact cars, you will notice that the Civic offers more refinement, better quality materials and a high level of comfort. The interior of the Honda Civic seems more pleasant and user-friendly than that of the 2019 Corolla, while the rear legroom is a plus in both the Civic and the Corolla.

Nevertheless, the Civic remains spacious, comfortable and sporty, without mentioning its heated and electronically adjustable leather seats, heated mirrors, large sunroof, tilting steering wheel with very easily accessible controls, appealing and attractive dashboard, state-of-the-art navigation system, storage spaces, innovative infotainment system, Wi-Fi connectivity, USB ports, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto technology, and more... making your adventure possible.

Under the hood, the Honda Civic is more powerful than the Toyota Corolla and it comes with two powertrain options, while the Corolla has only one. On the other hand, both cars have front-wheel drive available with an automatic or manual transmission. In terms of performance and fuel economy, the Honda Civic is a clear winner over its rival, especially with its turbocharged engine that offers you performance to spare.

The 2019 Honda Civic, Civic Coupe or Civic Hatchback offer you better advantages than their rival. Aesthetically, the Honda Civic gives the look of a sporty car, and is less cushy than the 2019 Corolla. Technologically, the Civic is one step ahead of the Corolla with its advanced passive and active safety features and innovative characteristics. When it comes to performance, the Civic is by far your best choice mostly due to the fuel economy of its turbocharged engine.

Let’s talk value for your buck. While the basic versions of the two compact cars compare favourably, the top-of-the-line versions are farther apart. On the other hand, the Honda Civic seems to offer more than the Corolla in terms of equipment, accessories, performance and comfort, therefore the 2019 Honda Civic's many features crown it as the champion in its class.

In our opinion, the 2019 Civic will provide you with hours of fun in addition to having excellent resale value, and being reliable and low-maintenance. Honda continues to impress with its desire to develop a compact to the taste of tomorrow's consumer.
