What Our Members Are Saying about the Real Gas Mileage of the 2008 Honda Civic

2008 Honda Civic Real Gas Mileage: Pros
Year	Body/Powertrain	Comment
2009	4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	It ranks just below the Prius for MPG. My son who bought a 2008 Civic Hybrid says he is getting better than rated MPG. I am trading in a 2005 Honda Accord Hybrid because the city MPG is not anywhere near what I was led to believe. see full Honda Civic review
2009	4dr Sedan 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	The Si still gets rather good fuel economy, even with a much beefier motor than the other models. see full Honda Civic review
2009	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	Superb fuel economy. The Civic gets 1.5 liter mileage on the highway (40+ with AC in my experience) and excellent mileage in the city (30+ MPG). It does this without the anemic hybrid performance or the inconveniences of a diesel engine. see full Honda Civic review
2009	4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Getting around 40 MPG combined 60/40 Hwy/City; more if I go easy on the gas pedal. see full Honda Civic review
2009	4dr Sedan 197-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed manual FWD	17mpg if you use all OE specification fluids and drive short trips around town. I get 32mpg with Amsoil full synthetic with cruise control at 65mph. 24mpg for mixed (normal). It requires premium. The K20Z3 uses multi-port fuel injection (not DI) with a static compression ratio of 11.0:1. If you put lower grade fuel in, you'll not only have missed the point of the car - you'll also make the engine eat itself from the inside out. see full Honda Civic review
2009	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Great economy. see full Honda Civic review
2008	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	30mpg+ in town and 35-42mpg on hwy. see full Honda Civic review
2008	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed manual FWD	Class leading with the manual transmission. see full Honda Civic review
2008	4dr Sedan 110-horsepower 1.3L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD	Driving the speed limit in mixed city suburban driving it is a gaurenteed 43 mpg. The feel and drivability are special given the torque addition of the electric assist motor. The car experience encourages a more intelligent driver. see full Honda Civic review
2008	4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 1.8L I4 5-speed automatic FWD	pretty good highway mileage. see full Honda Civic review
