Does my Honda Civic need these oil changes?

I have been told that my 2019 Honda Civic Smart Plus needs an oil change every six months; is that correct?

Hi Colette,

Unless you're covering huge mileage, that seems way too often to us. If a Honda dealer has told you that, you should ask for clarification as to why, as, other than high-mileage, it would be normal for a new car such as that to have an oil change once a year - or when the built-in service indicator suggests it's needed.
