Comparison Review: 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback vs 2022 Mazda 3 Hatchback - 6-Speed vs 6-Speed Manuals

*Disclosure, the Mazda 3 Sport featured in this video is a 2020 model year but there have been no updates for the 2022 model year since 2020.

We’ve seen the all-new 2022 Honda Civic Sedan and now we’re getting the 2022 Civic Hatchback. But that means it has to go up against the sporty 2022 Mazda 3 Sport (or hatchback as it's known in America).

The 2022 Honda Civic Hatch is available with two engine options. The base trim receives a 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder with 158 hp while this top spec Sport Touring trim gets a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder. This engine produces 180 hp and 177 lb-ft of torque (134 kW & 240 Nm).

The Mazda 3 is available with 3 engine options. A base 2.0L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder with 155hp, a 2.5L naturally aspirated 4-cylinder as equipped in this tester, or a turbocharged 2.5L engine. This naturally aspirated 2.5L engine produces 186 hp and 186 lb-ft of torque.

Price is where it starts to fall apart a bit for the 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback because this top spec Sport Touring trim is quite a bit more expensive than the GT trim of the Mazda 3 Sport 2022 – the topmost trim in which you can get a manual transmission. This 2022 Honda Civic Hatchback Sport Touring costs $35,000 CAD ($29,850 USD) while the 2022 Mazda 3 Sport GT Manual costs just $30,600 CAD ($28,350 USD, Premium trim). The starting prices are $28,000 CAD ($23,350 USD) & $22,200 CAD ($22,750 USD) respectively.
