About This 2018 Honda Civic EX Sedan

The 2018 Civic EX sits comfortably in the middle of Honda's trim lineup — above the base LX but packed with features that make every drive noticeably more comfortable. At just over 110,000 miles, this Civic is well into its stride. Honda Civics are routinely driven past 200,000 miles with proper maintenance, which means this one likely has a long, reliable road ahead. The silver exterior gives it a clean, professional look that holds up well in the intense desert sun common throughout Riverside County.

2018 Honda Civic Performance and Engine

The 2.0-Liter I-VTEC Four-Cylinder

This Civic EX is powered by Honda's naturally aspirated 2.0-liter I-VTEC inline four-cylinder engine, producing around 158 horsepower and 138 lb-ft of torque. Paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), this powertrain is tuned for efficiency and smoothness rather than outright speed — and it delivers. The CVT keeps the engine in its optimal power band during highway cruising, making it an ideal companion for longer drives between Indio, Palm Springs, and points west along the I-10 corridor.

Front-wheel drive keeps things simple and predictable, especially on the wide, flat roads throughout the greater Riverside County desert region. Expect real-world fuel economy in the range of 28–32 MPG combined, which adds up to meaningful savings at the pump.

Honda Civic EX Features and Interior

What the EX Trim Includes

The EX trim level is where the Civic lineup starts to feel genuinely premium. Standard features on this 2018 model include a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, a Honda Sensing safety suite (which bundles collision mitigation braking, lane-keeping assist, adaptive cruise control, and road departure mitigation), a sunroof/moonroof, heated front seats, remote engine start, and a one-touch power moonroof.

The interior is designed with the driver in mind — the dashboard layout is intuitive, storage is plentiful, and rear passenger space is surprisingly generous for a compact sedan. Honda also gave the 10th-generation Civic a turbine-style HVAC interface that looks sharp and functions well in desert heat.

Honda Civic Reliability and Ownership

The Honda Civic has consistently ranked among the most reliable compact cars on the market, and the 2018 model year is no exception. The 10th-generation platform (2016–2021) received strong marks from J.D. Power and Consumer Reports, with owners reporting minimal issues even at higher mileage. The 2.0-liter engine — as opposed to the turbocharged 1.5-liter found in some trims — is especially known for its straightforward maintenance and long-term durability.

Common ownership costs are low. Oil changes, brake service, and tire rotations are the primary maintenance needs at this mileage range. The CVT, when properly maintained with Honda-approved fluid, is known to be durable in real-world driving conditions. Owners consistently praise the Civic for its low cost of ownership, comfortable highway manners, and the confidence that comes with the Honda badge.
