2027 Honda Civic Hatchback: What's New, Trims, Specs, and Hybrid MPG

The 2027 Honda Civic Hatchback now offers a 200-hp hybrid powertrain rated at 50 city / 44 highway MPG. That hybrid output is a significant jump over the base 2.0L gas engine's 150 hp and 30 city / 38 highway MPG. This page covers every trim, spec, and key change, with in-stock hatchbacks available at Burleson Honda.

What's New for 2027

The headline addition for 2027 is the hybrid powertrain, producing 200 hp and achieving a 50 city / 44 highway MPG rating. Honda pairs that system with four selectable drive modes, giving buyers an option that was not part of the previous Civic Hatchback lineup. The Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid trims carry that system, while the Sport carries over with the 2.0L gas engine and CVT.

Google Built-In with Google Gemini arrives on the Sport Touring Hybrid, making it the first Civic Hatchback trim to offer in-car AI assistant capability alongside Google Maps and Google Play. The 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster is also new to the Sport Touring Hybrid, replacing the smaller display found on the Sport trim.

The Sport Touring Hybrid also gains wireless Apple CarPlay compatibility, stepping up from the wired CarPlay standard on the Sport trim. A 12-speaker Bose premium audio system and a wireless phone charger round out the Sport Touring Hybrid additions.

Trim Lineup

The 2027 Civic Hatchback spans three trims, split between one gas model and two hybrids.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport

Sport

Sport is the entry trim, powered by the 2.0L 150-hp gas engine with a CVT. It comes standard with 18-inch Gloss Black Alloy Wheels, Sport Mode, a 60/40 Split Fold-Down Rear Seatback, a 7-inch touchscreen, wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, an 8-speaker 180-watt audio system, remote engine start, Honda Sensing (full suite), Blind Spot Information System, and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Hybrid

Sport Hybrid

Sport Hybrid steps to the 200-hp hybrid powertrain and adds a one-touch power moonroof, heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, and deceleration selectors for regenerative braking in place of the paddle shifters found on the gas trim.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Touring Hybrid

Sport Touring Hybrid

Sport Touring Hybrid is the fully loaded trim. It upgrades to a 9-inch touchscreen, the 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, Google Built-In with Google Gemini, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, a wireless phone charger, the 12-speaker Bose premium audio system, and Honda S+ Shift. Leather-trimmed seating and a power driver seat are also standard at this trim level.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback performance and powertrain

Performance and Powertrain

The Sport uses a 2.0L Atkinson Inline 4-Cylinder DOHC engine with Dual-VTC and Direct Fuel Injection. Output is 150 hp and 133 lb-ft of torque, routed through a CVT to front-wheel drive. EPA ratings are 30 city / 38 highway / 34 combined MPG on regular unleaded fuel.

Hybrid trims (Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid) carry the 200-hp hybrid powertrain with four drive modes and deceleration selectors that allow the driver to manage regenerative braking intensity. The Sport Touring Hybrid also adds Honda S+ Shift, which refines the transmission feel in a sport-oriented direction. EPA ratings on the hybrid trims reach 50 city / 44 highway MPG.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback interior comfort and cargo

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo

The Civic Hatchback seats five and measures 179 inches in length with a 55.7-inch height, keeping it practical for compact spaces around Burleson without sacrificing passenger room. Cargo behind the second row measures 24.5 cubic feet, which Honda markets specifically toward active lifestyles that need flexible storage.

Heated front seats are standard on Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid. Dual-zone automatic climate control is standard on Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid. Leather-trimmed seating and a power driver seat are standard on Sport Touring Hybrid. All trims include remote engine start.

A one-touch power moonroof is standard on Sport Hybrid and Sport Touring Hybrid. Genuine Honda Accessories, including a roof rack and cargo tray, are available across trims for buyers who need additional hauling capacity.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback technology and infotainment

Technology and Infotainment

The Sport gets a 7-inch color touchscreen with wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, plus front USB-C audio connectivity and HondaLink Connected Services. The 8-speaker, 180-watt audio system is standard on the Sport trim.

The Sport Touring Hybrid jumps to a 9-inch touchscreen paired with a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster, Google Built-In with Google Gemini, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, a wireless phone charger, and the 12-speaker Bose premium audio system. That combination represents the most connected Civic Hatchback configuration Honda has offered.

All trims include remote engine start as standard equipment.

2027 Honda Civic Hatchback safety and driver assistance

Safety and Driver Assistance

Honda Sensing is standard across every 2027 Civic Hatchback trim. The suite includes:

  • Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) with Forward Collision Warning
  • Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) with Lane Departure Warning
  • Adaptive Cruise Control with Low-Speed Follow
  • Lane Keeping Assist
  • Traffic Jam Assist

Additional standard safety equipment on all trims includes a rearview camera with dynamic guidelines, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Electronic Brake Distribution, and auto high-beam headlights. Blind Spot Information System with Cross Traffic Monitor is standard on all three trims in the 2027 lineup.


Traffic Sign Recognition is also included as part of the Honda Sensing suite, displaying current speed limit data on the instrument cluster as the vehicle passes posted signs.

Who It's For / vs. the Prior Year

Buyers who prioritized the previous Civic Hatchback for its cargo utility and compact size get all of that in 2027, plus the option to move into a 200-hp hybrid with class-leading city fuel economy. The hybrid addition is the clearest reason to choose the 2027 model over a prior-year example, particularly for Burleson commuters whose driving is heavily city-weighted.

Buyers who do not need the hybrid powertrain will find the Sport trim carries the reliable 2.0L setup forward with updated standard tech, including 18-inch Gloss Black Alloy Wheels, remote engine start, and the full Honda Sensing suite.

If Google Gemini, wireless CarPlay, and Bose audio are priorities, the Sport Touring Hybrid is the only trim that bundles all three. If a moonroof, heated seats, and dual-zone climate control at a lower price point are the goal, the Sport Hybrid delivers all of those without moving to the top trim.

The 2027 Civic Hatchback also carries the weight of multiple awards, including the 2026 Car and Driver 10Best Cars recognition and the 2025 North American Car of the Year title, giving new buyers third-party validation on top of the spec improvements.
