Hello all. I currently am looking into purchasing a Honda Civic in the 2000-2005 range. While browsing, i noticed some decent deals for a 2003 and 2005 Civic Hybrid(both around $5,000) that ranged from 140-160k miles. I am on this board because I have never even looked into hybrid vehicles before and am wondering if the maintenance is any different than a gas car, or if replacement parts are outrageously more expensive(for example, replacing a battery).

Can any current Civic Hybrid owners help me out, and basically just give me maybe a pros/cons of the Civic Hybrid?

Thanks a million!

 

non of our members here own a hybrid that i know of, myself personally dont see whats so good about a hybrid there are regular civic models out there like the hx and vx that get way more mpg than the hybrids.

 

Thanks for the reply.

What is so special about the hx and vx?

 

they are your economy gas saver model.
the vx is the 92-95 civic and the hx is the 96-00 model.
i had the vx model and i got 46mpg
