My wife has a 2016 1.3 S manual with 49k miles full Honda service history.
If you give it some revs in first and second gear, it is noisy, but it then smoothes out higher up the revs and in higher gears.
Idle is typical quiet Honda, smooth like a sewing machine.
Doesn't use any oil between services.
I'd say it's a characteristic of this engine, as long as it's been serviced and your oil level is correct and it's not using oil, I would not be concerned.
