There’s big news for the 2025 Honda Civic: It’s now available as a hybrid. More than that, its new gasoline-electric powertrain replaces the Civic’s previously optional turbocharged engine, making the Civic Hybrid both a max fuel economy choice as well as a higher-performance one. It seems like a compelling pick for a small hybrid sedan. But it’s not the only one.
Hyundai has a similar mission with its 2025 Elantra Hybrid. This dramatically styled sedan gets its own update for 2025, resulting in edgier styling and additional technology features. Which one of these practical and high-mpg sedans is the better buy? Edmunds’ experts compare them to find out.
