In short, no. The 2014 Civic lineup includes a 6-speed manual in the Civic Si, while most other trims—including the Civic Hybrid—use a CVT (continuously variable transmission).
Overview of transmissions in the 2014 Civic
The ninth-generation Civic, carried through the 2015 model year, offered two broad approaches to automatic shifting. The Civic Si is the exception with a traditional 6-speed manual. All other trims in the North American market typically used a CVT, and the Hybrid variant also employed a CVT to optimize efficiency.
Before listing the specific breakdown, note that transmission availability can vary by market and model year within a generation. The following reflects the typical North American configuration for 2014.
Below is a brief breakdown of which trims used which transmissions.
- Civic Si — 6-speed manual transmission (not CVT)
- Civic LX, EX, EX-L, and Civic Hybrid — CVT (continuously variable transmission)
In summary, not all 2014 Civics had a CVT. The Si used a manual, while the majority used CVT, and the Hybrid also employed a CVT.
Market variations and additional details
Regional differences
While the above reflects North American configurations, some markets outside the United States and Canada can differ. Always verify the exact transmission type for a specific car using the brochure or the VIN.
Hybrid and performance notes
The Civic Hybrid pairs a 1.5-liter engine with an electric motor and uses a CVT designed for hybrid integration. The Civic Si remains Honda’s performance variant with a 2.4-liter engine mated to a 6-speed manual and no CVT option.
Summary
The 2014 Honda Civic did not universally use a CVT. The Civic Si was manual-only, while most other trims, including the Hybrid, used a CVT. Regional variations can occur, so check the specific model details for a given car.
