The only Civic engine option (unless you get a Type R) has 'self-charging' hybrid tech and provides plenty of punch for driving around town, overtaking and accelerating up to motorway speeds. The potent electric motor allows you to travel for short distances at low speed around town driving without using the engine at all.

Hatchback

Honda is a company that doesn’t like to follow the crowd. So, while it competes in most of the traditional sectors of the car market, in each case it does something a little bit different.

The Jazz, for example, might look like just another rival to Britain’s best-selling car, the Ford Fiesta, but it’s actually much more practical than its rivals, with a flexible boot and Tardis-like interior.

The bigger Civic is also a practical choice, but it’s mainly distinguished by having eye-catching, love-it-or-hate-it styling, despite competing in a sector of the market that’s usually more conservative than a blue rosette.

And while it may not seem so radical now, Honda’s large SUV, the CR-V, was one of the first to forego any pretence of being an off-roader and instead focus on on-road driving dynamics.

Sport trim gets everything you’d need, including LED front fog lights, part-leather seats, 18in alloys, wireless phone-charging and an auto-dimming rear-view mirror. It’s our pick of the range.

There’s very little to fault with the Honda Civic e:HEV. It’s great to drive, practical and cheap to own. And while some rivals have more rear seat space and are a little quieter, the Civic compensates by being generously equipped and very efficient. If you do buy one, we recommend choosing the mid-spec Sport trim.

Family cars arguably have the toughest brief of all: they have to be good at pretty much everything. They’re used as the daily drive, on the school run or work commute (often both), and have to be able to cope with a family’s clutter on weekends and holidays.
