- 2017 Civic EX w/ Sensing
When talking about the interior, many just consider material and design. But for me, I feel like the storage space is way more important. Practicality is the king and Civic is unbeatable in that regard.The only thing I miss is that interior. I love my Civic, but let's be real, the interior is lame and Mazda puts on a masterclass with interior design. Look like they've imported some of that to Toyota with their partnership. The new Toyota line-up has great interiors that are clearly Mazda influenced. The Civic feels dated and cheap by comparison.
So far in all the comparable cars I looked at (3, iM hatch, GTI) I feel more and more assured in buying the Civic. There's some things the others do better, but the Civic is just so well rounded and we'll priced it's hard to beat.
Also I hate how inconvenient the rotary knob is in the Mazda 3, especially when the screen isn't even a touch screen. Mazda claimed the knob is for "driver first" but it just requires more effort to navigate, especially in Android Auto.
Overall I never feel dated and cheap when sitting in my Civic. It's considerate and practical, but that could just be me.
