Can the Civic's side mirrors fold automatically?

No. Here is the relevant introduction about the 10th-generation Civic: 1. Exterior: The new Civic basically continues the styling design of the overseas model, equipped with full LED headlights. The side design of the new car is bolder than the front, with the smooth transition of the C-pillar resembling a Coupe model, featuring "bracket-style" LED taillights, and the light group presents a dart shape. 2. Body dimensions: In terms of body dimensions, the domestically produced new Civic measures 4649*1800*1416mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm. The old Civic was 4565*1755*1455mm with a wheelbase of 2670mm. The new generation model has increased in length, width, and wheelbase.
I've driven a Civic for years, and some models do come with auto-folding mirrors, typically in higher trims or newer versions like the 2020+ EX or Sport. It's super easy—just press the remote button when locking the car, and the mirrors fold in, saving you the hassle of manual adjustment and avoiding scratches. Base models or older versions might not support this feature, requiring you to push them in manually. It's especially handy when parking in tight alleys or areas with kids playing, reducing the risk of bumps. When buying, check the spec sheet or test-drive to confirm. My higher-trim Civic had this convenience, and it’s genuinely practical. If you didn’t opt for a higher trim, aftermarket installation is an option, but I wouldn’t recommend DIY for beginners to avoid wiring damage.
