The 2022 Honda Civic Si Is a Tastefully Refreshed Affordable Sport Sedan
One of the most entertaining cars for the money gets a bit nicer.

Honda, as you likely know, has long trafficked in affordable, value-packed vehicle that also manage to be entertaining to drive — or at least, more entertaining than their competitors. In recent years, perhaps no car in the company's American lineup has epitomized that quite as well as the Civic Si.
As the 10th-generation Civic segued into the 11th-generation version earlier this year, though, the Civic Si drifted out of dealerships, leaving those of us who craved a row-your-own Civic to settle for the less-powerful Civic hatchback or scour the classifieds for a used (and now likely overpriced) older Si or Type R. But Honda, of course, wasn't planning on leaving us bereft of such a sweet toy forever. The Civic Si is back for the 2022 model year, packing a more mature design and a more refined interior — but still with the zing and pep we loved in the prior one.
