Honda Civic: The Little Workhorse
Like the Camry, the compact Honda Civic has been a reliable, durable and safe car for decades. Civics can generally be driven well over 100,000 miles before needing major repairs, so an older model Civic is a safe as well as economical choice for a teenager. The Civic has earned many 5 star ratings from the NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration). The 2018 Civic was named Best Small Car when the Kelley Blue Book released its 2018 Best Buy car awards.
Safety features in newer model Honda Civics include electronic stability control, a backup camera, and the Honda LaneWatch system — a camera on the exterior mirror on the passenger-side blind spot that enhances driver visibility.
A brand new Honda Civic starts at $19,200. Whether new or used, your teen will get great value from the Civic.
