Honda Civic Si in Sacramento: price, power and who it fits

A new Honda Civic Si starts at the price Honda publishes for the 2026 model, and it fits the Sacramento driver who wants a manual-transmission sport sedan that still works as a daily commuter. Capital City Honda, at 3630 Fulton Avenue, sells the Civic Si Sedan new and will put you in one with a test drive booked online or by phone.

Sacramento buyers comparing a new Si with used listings need three answers: what it costs, what the engine delivers, and whether it suits daily driving. Honda’s published figures answer the first two, and the store’s own record covers the buying side.

How much does a new Honda Civic Si cost in Sacramento?

Honda publishes a starting MSRP of $31,495 for the 2026 Civic Si, and that number is where any Sacramento quote begins. Sacramento adds its own tax on top, with a combined sales and use tax rate of 8.750% for the city against 7.750% for Sacramento County (California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, 2026).

Within Honda’s 2026 Civic range, the Si sits above the Sedan Sport Hybrid at $29,395 and below the Sedan Sport Touring Hybrid at $32,395. The Sedan LX starts the range at $24,695, and the Type R tops it at $47,395. Registration adds to the bill as well: the California Department of Motor Vehicles lists a base registration fee of $76 for original registration or renewal, billed alongside a $34 California Highway Patrol fee. We list the Civic Si Sedan among the new Hondas we sell at 3630 Fulton Avenue.

How much power does the Honda Civic Si make?

The Civic Si makes 200 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 192 lb-ft of torque from 1,800 to 5,000 rpm, according to Honda’s published 2026 specifications. The standard Civic Sedan LX makes 150 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 133 lb-ft from 4,000 to 5,000 rpm.

The torque difference shows up well before the top of the rev range. The Si’s 192 lb-ft arrives from 1,800 rpm, so the car has pull from low revs, where a Sacramento commute spends most of its stop-and-go minutes. The Civic Type R makes 315 horsepower at 6,500 rpm, which puts it in a different class from the Si.

Is the Honda Civic Si a good daily commuter in Sacramento?

Yes, for the Sacramento driver who wants a sport sedan that seats five. The U.S. Census Bureau’s 2024 American Community Survey puts the mean travel time to work for Sacramento city workers at 25.3 minutes (U.S. Census Bureau, 2024).

On a commute of that length, the Si’s cabin does the job. It offers 42.3 inches of legroom in the front row and 37.4 inches in the rear, the same rear legroom as the standard Civic sedan. Its trunk is slightly smaller, with 14.1 cubic feet of cargo behind the rear seat against 14.8 cubic feet in the Civic Sedan LX.

How does the Civic Si compare with the Type R and Hybrid?

The Type R makes 315 horsepower at 6,500 rpm and 310 lb-ft of torque from 2,600 to 4,000 rpm, against the Si’s 200 horsepower and 192 lb-ft. The Civic Sedan Sport Hybrid starts at $29,395 and makes the same 200 horsepower as the Si, and the 4-door Civic hybrid carries an EPA rating of 50 city, 47 highway and 49 combined. Buyers who want the Si’s manual gearbox choose it for that reason, and buyers who put fuel rating first look to the hybrid.

Who is the Honda Civic Si built for?

The Civic Si fits the driver who wants to shift their own gears, wants a sport sedan with usable back seats, and does not need Type R power. Its rear row offers 37.4 inches of legroom and it seats five, so the car works for passengers as well as the driver.

The Type R’s 315 horsepower and $47,395 price suit a buyer who wants more than the Si gives. A make-and-model lookup gives a general estimate based on historical data, and we have a secure online finance application for the buying side. Our certified pre-owned Hondas carry an extended powertrain limited warranty and a bumper-to-bumper limited warranty from Honda.

New or used Civic Si: which fits a Sacramento budget?

A new Civic Si comes with Honda’s new-vehicle coverage on a current model, and a trade-in can lower what you pay for it. The Civic’s basic warranty runs 3 years or 36,000 miles and its powertrain warranty runs 5 years or 60,000 miles, whichever comes first in each case.

The corrosion warranty runs 5 years with no mileage limit. Weigh any lower used price against the warranty time left on the car, because that coverage is part of what a buyer pays for. Pauline C. described her visit in a September 2026 Google review: “Alberto was very friendly and welcoming when I came in through the front door. Made the transaction easy and smooth! Thanks for the great deal Alberto”

That is one buyer’s account of the deal, and it shows the budget question from the buyer’s side.
