What gas does the 2026 Honda Civic take?
It depends on the engine: premium gasoline for the 1.5L 4-cylinder turbo and 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; regular gasoline for the 2.0L 4-cylinder and 2.0L 4-cylinder hybrid.
Key takeaways
- 5 EPA-certified configurations listed for the 2026 Honda Civic.
- Rated on premium: if the owner's manual says premium required, use premium; if it says recommended, regular works with some loss of power and economy.
