In terms of environmental impact, the 2019 Civic 4Dr produces approximately 276 grams of CO2 per mile. This figure is measured under standardized EPA test conditions and represents tailpipe emissions only. For context, the average new vehicle sold in the United States produces approximately 400 grams of CO2 per mile, meaning this Civic 4Dr performs better than the national average in this regard.

The estimated annual fuel cost for this vehicle is $1,850, based on 15,000 miles of driving per year and current national average fuel prices. Compared to the average new vehicle, you would spend $1,500 over a 5-year period.
