Without any engine update for this year, the Civic RS Turbo retains its spritely yet controlled performance on the road. The turbocharged 171-hp 1.5L DOHC VTEC provided a healthy portion of the 220 Nm torque as early 1,700 RPM.

Within the city, the car wasn’t lazy and remained obedient at any driving conditions. However, the proprietary Earth Dreams CVT, although better than most CVTs out there, held back what the car could possibly do out in the open. Changing speeds would warrant frequent use of paddle shifters, but that’s fine as they’re almost on point in simulating gears for the car to use. Almost, but not quite.

The Civic RS Turbo handled better than its naturally-aspirated counterpart, primarily because of its stiffer ride. Body roll was present on fast corners but one that wasn’t expected. After all, the Civic is still a mainstream family sedan, no matter how sporty it looks. With that said, maneuverability within tight streets was a cinch because the car didn’t feel huge at all and the steering feels light – even too light sometimes.

Honda’s use of Earth Dreams CVT is primarily for better fuel economy, and it didn’t disappoint during the review. Amidst heavy city traffic, the Civic RS Turbo read back 8.3 km/L while averaging 15 km/h. Faster Sunday drives, on the other hand, gave back 13.4 km/L with an average speed of 60 km/h.
