Honda Civic 1.8S AT vs Fiesta Hatchback 1.6L Sport+ PowerShift

Hi Guys,

I'm about to buy a car this December, but I'm very confused which one should I take:

Honda Civic 1.8S AT vs Fiesta Hatchback 1.6L Sport+ PowerShift

I'm looking for long term use as well.

SRP of Fiesta Hatchback 1.6L Sport+ PowerShift is Php 839,000 while Honda Civic 1.8S AT is Php948,000

So far so good, Honda offered rear sensor as one of their freebies..

Please let me know your thought.

Thanks All.

If you need space, get the bigger car. Get the civic.

i'll pick the civic. biigger space plus more power. mas smooth din ang takbo compared to fiesta. maybe you can consider focus instead of fiesta?

Focus was one of my option though but it falls out of my budget. lol.

Storage space wise at compartment, seems like Fiesta is bigger.

Here are the offer of Ford vs Civic.
Ford vs Civic:
Dimension: 3950 x 1973 x 1496 vs 4524 x 1695 x 1434
Transmission Speed: 6S vs 5S
Displacement: 1596 vs 1977
Fuel Tank: 43 vs 57
Mags: 16" vs 15"
Front Fog Lamp: Yes vs No
Rear Sensor: Yes vs No
Seats: Leather vs Fabric

So you think still Civic?

fo me, still yes to civic. bigger space and very comfortable to drive. i didnt enjoy driving the fiesta like what i've experienced with civic. but yes, it's pricey. i agree with sir jut. consider elantra and lancer for cheaper price. mas sulit. i also enjoy driving elantra. same with civic. just my opinion

Ako baliktad. Fiesta felt very willing to be tossed into corners, as opposed to the FB Civic which really feels more sedate than the FD Civic.

Between the two, I'd get the Fiesta. I don't like the Sport Plus' racing stripes, but if it's to your liking, then the car's actually really good value. It's got all the creature comforts you could expect at that price range. The voice control is amusing and a fun conversation topic with friends, but it's ultimately useless. Leather seats are rather rare for a car of its class, so that's a plus too.

Of course, the biggest downside is space. The Fiesta is nowhere as roomy as the Civic when it comes to rear passenger space, but if you won't be bringing around your family all the time, it should be fine.

The Civic is way too expensive for what it offers. Sure it's got great space, but that's about it. Small rims, no fog lamps, fixed rear seats, and so on. I find the Elantra 1.8 GLS at 958k to be much better value. If you want a spacious car that's much cheaper, consider the Elantra 1.6 GL (888k) or the Lancer 1.6 GLX (855k).
