Honda Civic Hatchback boot space, practicality and safety

2000 - 2005 (change model)
Practicality rating: 4 out of 54.0

Written by Dan Harrison Published: 6 June 2019

Driver, passenger and side airbags, plus ABS. No traction control, though. Deadlocks are strong and there’s an alarm/immobiliser as standard. Euro NCAP awarded a respectable four-star safety rating.

Plenty of cubby holes and smart storage. Luggage space in the boot is excellent too and all cars have split-folding rear seats. Space for odds and ends between the two front seats – where the gearstick would normally be.
