The compact car segment includes a few models that have been on the market for decades. A vehicle can't stand the test of time if it's not filled with quality.
That's why the comparison between the Volkswagen Jetta and the Honda Civic is a natural one, as both are classics.
However, one of them has had its moments of glory. It's still interesting today, but it's no longer at the top of its game. We're referring to the Jetta, of course, because in the case of the Civic, it's been dominating the market for over 20 years now.
And with the renewal it's getting for 2022, it's getting all the tools to add years to its hegemony.
Take styling, for example. With Volkswagen, we're treated to something classic, but with very little emotion. With the Civic, it's the opposite. Over the years, the design of the models has always left its mark on the imagination, and the new generation will not fail in this tradition. This is especially true of the hatchback, which has a beautiful cut and rear end.
With the Jetta... That's right, the Jetta is not available in a 5-door configuration.
And when it comes to reliability, there's a world of difference between the two models. Every year, Consumer Reports magazine ranks the most reliable brands. In 2020, Honda came in 5th, behind strong performance from the Civic. Volkswagen had to settle for 24th place out of 26 manufacturers.
Inside, Volkswagen presents quality environments, but once again, it's nothing earth-shattering on the design side. This year, with the new Civic, Honda has raised the bar by creating a space designed for humans, especially the driver. Everything is at your fingertips and the layout of information and controls puts you at the center of the action like never before.
Finally, where Volkswagen may have had an advantage before, namely driving pleasure, Honda has made a serious adjustment. You only have to grip the steering wheel of the 11th generation model to realize this. Handling, chassis rigidity, soundproofing, comfort, composure, everything is spot on.
Truly, the 2022 Honda Civic is an impossible car to fault. That's why it's the best choice in its class.
