Toyota Corolla vs Honda Civic

There are no two more recognizable sedans than the 2021 Toyota Corolla and the 2021 Honda Civic. They are renowned for their reliability, consistency, and style. Regardless of which vehicle you prefer, you’re going to be treated to a smooth ride. However, there are some differences between these two rides, and Ira Toyota of Orleans seeks to inform drivers around Orleans, Eastham, and Harwich, MA, of them. Let’s get started!
Toyota Corolla vs Honda Civic: MPG
Consistently being able to drive long distances without having to stop to fill up is the name of the game for both the Toyota Corolla and the Honda Civic, two of the more fuel-efficient cars you can find. The gas trims of the Toyota and Honda models get comparable mileage. However, where the Toyota Corolla stands out over the Honda Civic in MPG is with their hybrid models.
The Toyota Corolla Hybrid LE model gets an EPA-estimated 53 city/52 highway/52 combined MPG and comes with an 11.4-gallon fuel tank, ensuring that you can drive a little over 500 miles before you need to fill up again.1
Toyota Corolla vs Honda Civic: Infotainment Features
The goals of the Toyota Corolla and the Honda Civic are to provide you with hours of fun driving. To reach that goal, they both offer tons of infotainment features that are sure to please. In both vehicles, Bluetooth® capabilities, wireless Apple CarPlay®, and Android Auto™ are offered. However, these capabilities come standard on the Corolla and are only available on the Civic. In terms of other standard features, the speaker system in the Toyota beats out the standard speaker system in the Honda.
- Toyota Speaker System: 6-speaker system
- Honda Speaker System: 4-speaker system
The Toyota also offers a 4G LTE Wi-Fi hotspot that can connect multiple devices at one time. The Honda Civic, by comparison, doesn’t offer this feature.
Toyota vs Honda: Safety Features
As you already know, the Toyota Corolla and the Honda Civic are regarded for their safety and reliability. That is never more apparent when you’re faced with a potentially hazardous situation, as many of the safety features in these vehicles can either avoid it altogether or minimize the impact. Some similar standard safety features you’ll find include:
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Cruise Control (Adaptive Cruise Control in the Civic)
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (Lane Departure Warning in the Civic)
- Pre-Collision System (Collision Mitigation Braking System in the Civic)
One handy feature that you’ll find in the Toyota Corolla that you won’t find on the Honda Civic is the Road Sign Assist feature. Where the Toyota stands out over the Honda, though, is with ToyotaCare. This is a no-cost maintenance plan that comes standard with new Corolla vehicles. This covers factory scheduled service for two years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first.
This plan also features 24-hour Roadside Assistance with unlimited mileage for two years.
