TCC’s Bottom Line

Safety upgrades this year make the 2019 Honda Civic as compelling as ever.

The 2019 Mazda 3 keeps the zoom, but all-wheel-drive practicality and a vastly upgraded interior make it much more than that.

TCC Likes

Great value for the money
Terrific ride and handling
Thrilling turbo engines

Handsome sedan profile
Improved ride comfort
Quiet, well-trimmed cabin

TCC Dislikes

Styling an acquired taste on some models
Base engine just average
Civic Si could use more power

Cabin’s space efficiency
Worrisome outward visibility (hatchback)
Manual transmission’s been sidelined
