Yes—mostly. The 2017 Honda Civic offers a CVT on most trims, but the high-performance Civic Si is manual-only.
In 2017, Honda offered two transmission options across the Civic lineup: a continuously variable transmission (CVT) for automatic models, and a six-speed manual for those who prefer a stick. The Civic Si, built for sportier driving, uses a 6-speed manual and does not include a CVT.
Transmission options in the 2017 Civic
The Civic’s transmissions are split between an automatic option (CVT) and a manual option, with the CVT being the common automatic choice on most trims and the Si sticking to a manual setup.
CVT availability across the lineup
Below is a quick overview of how CVT appeared in the 2017 Civic lineup.
- CVT (automatic): The prevailing choice for most non-Si Civics, including variants with the 1.5-liter turbo engine and those with the 2.0-liter engine, depending on trim and market.
- Six-speed manual: The Civic Si uses a 6-speed manual and does not offer a CVT.
In short, if you want a CVT in a 2017 Civic, look to the automatic-equipped trims (most models). If you want the manual experience, the Si is the model intended for that configuration. Always check the specific model’s brochure or a dealer listing for the precise drivetrain pairings of a given year and trim.
Summary
The 2017 Honda Civic offered two transmissions: a CVT automatic that was available on most trims and a six-speed manual reserved for the Civic Si. This arrangement gave buyers a wide choice between fuel-efficient automatics and a traditional manual for enthusiasts.
