Civic X vs Grande (2018/2019), which one should I go for?

[abdullahduhh]

Assalamualaikum everyone, so we plan on purchasing a car in the range of 5,200,000/- up to 5,500,000/-. Two of the choices that me and my family are interested in are Civic X and Grande (2018 - 2019).

I am quite interested in Civic X but I have heard about issues that come along with it such as AC, Lower Suspension that can cause issues for the elderly, and Steering Issues. I don't have issues with maintenance cost

I will be the one driving the car mostly, usually whenever my family goes we are a total of 5 people sitting in the car. I do like the overall build of Civic X(interior specifically). Still, the reliability of Grande, softer suspension, more space, and easily suitable for people up to 5 cannot be ignored.

As of 2024, what would you recommend for me to purchase considering that I will be driving the car mostly but sometimes family does go for trips (Islamabad, Lahore, Swat, etc).

Civic is nice vehicle, but its also true that when 4-people on board, it has serious ground clearance issues. Even 4-inch taller speed bump seems mountain high

Go for Grande. East or west, Toyota is the best.
With 5-people on board in Grande, you can additionally toe Mehran also without any issues

Which car did you end up purchasing?

Depends on the condition of the car that you're getting. But Civic is miles ahead of the Toyota. Both cars can be unreliable if not maintained. For driving pleasure and build quality, Civic X > Corolla (IMO).

yes everyone can have own opinion but civicx has steering rack and ac issues and build quality of corolla is better then civic also the suspenion and comfort is better than civic ..neither car is miles ahead or behind in anything just little differences like civic is a low riding car gives more planted feel while corolla more raised comfort oriented durable feel. and trust me the corolla can even withstand some abuse which the honda civic can definitly not it gives you sporty type looks but thats about it in the civicx.

Civic for driving pleasure
Toyota for roughness,
For me grande lacks features but it ia robust.
So as for you usage 4 5 people corolla suits you best
