Civic 1.5T real fuel consumption data: Among 734 owners of the 6-speed manual transmission version of the tenth-generation Civic, their fuel consumption ranges from 5.91 to 7.77 liters per 100 kilometers, with an average fuel consumption of 6.84 liters per 100 kilometers; among 9515 owners of the continuously variable transmission (CVT) version of the tenth-generation Civic, their fuel consumption ranges from 6.42 to 8.56 liters per 100 kilometers, with an average fuel consumption of 7.49 liters per 100 kilometers. The following is related information: Power of the tenth-generation Civic 1.5T: Engine: 1.5-liter four-cylinder turbocharged engine; maximum horsepower: 177Ps/5500rpm; maximum power: 130KW; maximum torque: 226N·m/2000~4500rpm; transmission: 6-speed manual transmission (MT)/continuously variable transmission (CVT). Low fuel consumption: Honda, known as 'buying an engine and getting a car for free,' lives up to its reputation. Such excellent fuel consumption results make it a standout among compact cars of the same class. Even with such economical fuel consumption, the power output response of the tenth-generation Civic is equally impressive.
As a long-term owner of the Civic 1.5T, I've been driving it for over two years now, and it's particularly common for my daily city commutes. My fuel consumption usually hovers around 8.5L/100km, especially during the morning rush hour in congested areas, where it can even exceed 9L. However, on the highway, it easily drops to around 6.5L, which is very economical. The official data claims just over 6L, but in real-world driving, there's always some deviation depending on personal habits, road conditions, and the car's maintenance. I personally prefer smooth acceleration and minimal braking, which helps save quite a bit of fuel. On car enthusiast forums, this topic is frequently discussed, with most averaging between 7-8L. In terms of maintenance, I check the tire pressure every six months and keep it at the standard value, which slightly optimizes fuel consumption. Overall, the Civic 1.5T's fuel consumption isn't high, but it really depends on the roads you drive and your driving style.
