Will the Cosco Scenera Next fit in a 2016–2021 Honda Civic?

Yes — the Cosco Scenera Next fits a 2016–2021 Honda Civic, with a caveat.
The Scenera Next is about 17" wide; the Civic's usable rear bench is about 48". It fits one rear position comfortably. Three across is tight (51" needed vs 48"). Note: rear legroom here is limited, so a rear-facing install may crowd the front passenger.
