Reliability and safety are the two dimensions that matter most for long-term ownership costs.

Safety is a strength too — 8.5/10 by our scoring. As with any car, verify the official ratings for your specific trim at nhtsa.gov/ratings.
Performance lands mid-pack at 7.8/10: enough power and composure for everyday needs, without the dynamics that distinguish the segment's driver-focused options. Technology comes in at 7.3/10 — functional and modern, with wireless connectivity and core ADAS features, though some competitors pack more standard tech at this price point.
Priced from $28,905–$33,518, 28 MPG, seating 5, the Honda Civic Si sits in the mid-market bracket of the sports segment. The 8.2/10 value score is the headline: relative to what it costs, this sports delivers more than most of the class. At 4 years old, it's worth checking whether a newer generation or refresh has addressed any weaker dimensions — compare it to the current model year before buying.
Bottom line: Think of the 2022 Honda Civic Si as the dependable pick rather than the exciting one. Shoppers who value predictability over headlines will be well served.
