• 2019 Honda Civic: The Civic’s 2.0L 4-cylidner is more powerful at 158 hp and 138 lb-ft of torque, and if fuel economy is your top concern, upgrading to the 174-hp turbocharged engine brings an EPA-estimated 32 city and 42 highway mpg on EX and EX-L trims.*

All modern cars are designed to be significantly safer than those that came before them, but when you weigh the 2019 Honda Civic vs. 2019 Toyota Corolla, there are some pretty substantial differences in safety. While Honda Sensing and Toyota Safety Sense will have some features in common, the Corolla is missing some features as well.Though Toyota has a lane departure alert, Honda has Lane Keeping Assist, which can react to a departure and course correct to keep you in your lane. The available Honda LaneWatch camera (found on Civic EX and higher trims) also offers another view — simply signal your intent to change lanes and a camera below the passenger’s mirror turns on to show you if anything is in the blind spot.

While both of the cabins are comparable in size, the trunks tell a different story:

• The Corolla offers 13 cubic feet of cargo space.
• The Honda Civic Sedan provides up 15.1 cubic feet of trunk space.

If you regularly travel, like to head out to the links for a game of golf, or simply like knowing you can store more, the Civic’s trunk offers a notable difference.
