If you're unsure if the 2016 Honda Civic is within your budget or just want to know how the Japanese sedan stacks up against the Mazda3, we have leaked pricing information that you might be interested in.
A sheet Honda deems "confidential" has found its way onto the Internet, revealing that the base model will cost $18,640 when it goes on sale in mid-November. When the delivery charge is also included, you end up with a sticker of $19,475.
That's a $150 increase from 2015, but considering the bigger size and indubitably improved design, that's not really a big deal. Your standard 2016 Jetta S retails for $18,780 with a 1.4-liter turbo base engine, while the 2016 Mazda3 sedan can be yours for $17,845 with a 2-liter and the manual.
Speaking of engines, the Civic also comes standard with a stick. If you want that to be replaced with a CVT automatic, you're looking at a minimum of $20,275, according to the CivicX forum post.
So what about that turbocharged engine we keep hearing about? For that one, expect to pay at least $23,035 for the Civic EX. If we're to believe the leaked brochure scan, the most expensive model of all will be the $27,335 Touring.
We'll remind you that Honda took the wraps off its tenth generation compact sedan about a month ago. Based on an all-new platform, the car is lower, wider and features a 1.2-inch extended wheelbase.
The base engine is a 16-valve, 2.0-liter naturally aspirated unit said to be the most powerful of its kind in the segment (158 hp). However, most customers will get the newer 1.5-liter turbo that's said to get up to 42 mpg on the highway.
The sedan is the first of many new Civics to come, as Honda has plans for a coupe that will launch soon, followed by a five-door hatchback, Si models and a range-topping Civic Type R. That's right, there will be a Ford Focus ST rival.
EX-L with Honda Sensing =$25,535
EX-L Navi =$25,535
Touring =$27,335
