Overall the new Civic is kicking butt and taking names with good engines, a great chassis, and an interior that's a notch above what it used to be.

Reviews & sale number and comparisons are different things.
All reviews about 2016 Civic were very positive, their sale were better than last year while most car sales were down year to date. But when Civic is compared with Mazda 3 it is not as good, at least C&D is thinking that way. Yes, 2016 Civic is a much better car than 2015 but that means nothing when it is compared head-to-head with Mazda 3.
Toyota sale number is much higher than Mazda 3, does it mean Corolla is a better driving car ?
Toyota Camry sale number is much higher than Mazda 6, does it mean Mazda 6 is a worse car ?
