Well, you want answer that way, an axia fit the description too.

So i cant voice my opinion? Sorry about that.

i would disagree too, a couple of years ago was looking to get one, went to the showroom to test it out, once i opened the door to get in both the front and rear, i knew right away it isn't for me. Didn't even proceed with a test drive.

the car simply sits too low, the ingress and egress is a very bad experience regardless of how spacious it is at the back, i could not imagine myself seating my kid in the car seat at the rear and breaking my back almost every time. Oh and don't even mention the elderly, me and my wife simply found it difficult to even enter the car

Thanks for the valuable feedback. Civic was always kind of a dream car of mine but now with kids in the picture, have to reconsider my priorities haha. Will wait for the new HRV instead.

yeah, i've always wanted an EK but they're simply too old now, but don't just take our word for it. Nothing beats checking it out physically, what might not be acceptable for me might work for you.

the car is still fantastic value for money, it just might not be the most suitable for the family man with kids or elderly IMHO

My friend driving the 10th gen already complain that elderly cannot easily in and out, he is already looking ahead for SUV.

He say worse than previous gen Myvi. Personally this is also why I will insist on actual test, and will keep Corolla cross in my list.

You need to be more specific a bit, because when you say family of 4 immediately everyone assume middle aged couple with young children. It can be a lot different from any actual reality.

I am even thinking about getting air suspension conversion for my 10th gen

Just so have option to raise up when ingress

this grille just looks so much better compared to the stock Civic sedan grille

US always get the good shit

Phillipine's top spec Civic RS. Ours will be the same without the Bose speaker and 10.2 inch digital driver display (hope this is not confirmed)

will the rs be the same price ? 140k ishhh haha ,

hopefully even without the bose speaker, the audio still good
like the new gen city, the bass is finally back after went missing on the gm6

Yesterday I went to test drive a CRV and enquired also about the civic.

The salesman must have thought I am rich enough to afford the CRV and so kept telling me the civic S lowest spec will likely not have Honda sense (above 130k) and V spec will be 140k+ as speculated by some previously. While civic RS will be 160k+

He also mentions that it’ll take another 3 months for Civic to be launched. In other words he is trying to imply I got no choice and time to wait for civic. Must buy a CRV NOW!

I think all these salesman wanna sell something real quick and as high as possible…while we as consumers perhaps still care about our wallets. At least I do. But for sure I’m not keen to find the same guy.

My own take from this doesn’t change, I have waited long enough for the 10th gen to phase out so that Honda sense can be passed downstream to S and E for lower, price, but if due to inflation or greed, they wanna keep the price higher I guess I may either just get the old model 2nd Hand, or my first choice is to buy a Corolla cross. All I’m saying is competition is stiff in this price range too.

I also went to test drive the 1.8V Corolla cross and I’m quite happy with it, except for the lack of power. I now have every belief that the hybrid at 137k will solve all my problems…so, I’m more keen towards that if the price of Civic is same. Even the 1.8V is already acceptable actually (I’m not a racer, I’m actually a very mild uncle).

Bose speaker or not doesn't really matter to me since audio can easily be upgraded outside

But if our spec exclude the 10.25" digital driver display then really bummer....

@HondaMalaysia If Phillipine's RS can have Bose and 10.2, why not Malaysia as well. Got second highest tower in world, x kan 10.2 inch display cannot get

closer look at Philipine's Civic spec also show that they have 3 variant - RS, V and S

https://www.hondaphil.com/model/civic

something to note is Drive Mode is only applicable to RS with the 10.25" cluster

does this mean our RS won't get that also? Assuming it's confirmed we dont have the full cluster

according to the leak photo
we do have drive mode on RS

but hor, it remove the S from gear selector
meaning this is the same with putting on S je
instead of change into S , now u push toggle to engage sport mode

that hybrid wont solve the power issue, still weak

but next gen honda civic gonna have sensing for all 3 variant. this is confirm one

Mind to explain more? I only want some torque and acceleration from low to mid speed, basically just for mild sprint in case need to come out of junctions…
You have tested already?

Anyway I already guessed that the civic will have sensing across variants, I already know what the salesman trying to do.

off course not tested
but you can search for some review je
the hybrid will lose power when the battery is drain
typical toyota hybrid fashion

but if we could get the really new gen Hybrid 2.0L one then totally diff story
umw should be bringing the very old 1.8 Hybrid je , not the 2.0L one just launch for european market


test the car first ba before you made your booking fee , and make it clear to the sa u want to have a proper long distance test drive not the typical 5min 5km test drive

Thanks! I rechecked, you are not wrong there bro. I also just told mentioned if its the same as Prius (Atkinson 1.8) it will be sluggish.

1. Is definitely not the 2L Toyota hybrid Force from Corolla.
2. The bloody salesman (again) from toyota told me it is 170PS and 350Nm. Looks like completely UNTRUE, it is nearer to 122PS/140Nm...I asked the fella is this the same system performance as a Prius and he told me no...anyway kena tipu again.
Oh well it is more of less off my list for now. Whats the point in buying an expensive engine that is lower in performance, only to end up spending all that petrol savings into a new battery in 8-10 years.....Nett is more money out of pocket, who counts that carbon?
3. I don't even want to test drive a 122hp / 140Nm version of the thing I already tested at 139hp/170Nm....

The one thing that is not so accurate is that all hybrid batteries run out of charge if you don't decelerate, there is not much change in that regard. I think it is generally counted in minutes of capacity. Not hours.
