Sedan




Coupe looks so good, while the Sedan is epic fail

As a fan of Honda since 2000, I am disappointed.

[boytbak]

haha.. di yan nga din yun civic na na leak.. mas maporma pa din yun fd IMHO

[jetrone]

Hopefully we get the coupe look

[ianmitsulancer]

the resemblance?!

i can accept the front fascia design... but the back?! time to think of appropriate claddings i think... hehehe...

but lets see how the ASEAN version will look like.

[Batang Regla]

Accord na accord yung likod ah.

[emj21]

coupe ass= 2nd gen city
civic ass= latest gen of city..


new civic looks lighter bec. of smaller taillight and mas sharp yung mga cut ng body compare to fd na parang ang bigat bigat bec. of the soobra laki ng taillight!

for me winner parin.. dont forget, civic is just a lessthan 1M sedan! baka kasi eexpect niyo/gusto niyo magmukhang Audi or BM na ang next CIVIC ...

Hyundai is getting attractive while Honda is getting boring

Looks like a facelift rather than a new model... Malamang yan na makukuha natin since wala ng JDM Civic after the FD...

Honda Civic Concept

The Honda Civic Si Concept coupe and Honda Civic Concept sedan made their world debuts at the 2011 North American International Auto Show, providing the first official glimpse at the styling direction of the all-new, ninth-generation 2012 model set to go on sale this spring, the company announced.

"The Civic is known for providing a balance of 'just-right' packaging, fun-to-drive character and outstanding fuel economy, at a price that even first-time buyers can afford," said John Mendel, executive vice president of sales for American Honda. "The redesigned Civic builds on this legacy and promises to be the best Civic yet."

The 2012 Civic embraces the company's vision as a "Civic for all people," a phrase originally expressed in defining the goal of the first-generation Civic. With the widest array of engine choices available in its class, the 2012 Civic lineup intends to meet the needs of an increasing group of compact-vehicle buyers with a renewed vision of a "Civic for all people." The diverse vehicle range includes a sedan and a coupe with conventional gasoline models, two sporty "Si" performance versions, along with one hybrid and a natural gas alternative-fuel variant. Collectively the depth of the Civic line offers a compelling balance between fuel economy, low emissions and fun-to-drive performance unlike any other vehicle in the industry.

As a new interpretation of the current Civic's iconic "one-motion" mono-form shape, the upcoming, ninth-generation Civic conveys a more substantial, high-energy appearance. The exterior styling of both Honda Civic concept models showcases the sedan's and coupe's clean-yet-powerful lines with steeply raked windshields, wide stances and pronounced character lines along the profile. The lower character line on both models broadens toward the rear fenders to enhance the dynamic feeling of forward energy. The front fender surface treatments form a complex, three-dimensional look to further enhance the image of sophistication and structural depth against the deeply set headlights.

The Honda Civic Concept sedan takes on a sophisticated presence with a front grille defined by crisp lines and a solid bar that integrates a chrome Honda emblem. The look of the Honda Civic Si Concept coupe conveys an aggressive demeanor with a more angular front fascia, mesh grille and a tapered rear roofline that flows smoothly into the trunk. The Honda Civic Si Concept coupe is exclusively equipped with a rear air diffuser, a center-mounted exhaust outlet and a rear deck lid spoiler with dual vents. Each concept model has 19-inch machined alloy wheels.

Powertrain Technology

The Civic's family of engines with "intelligent" Variable Valve Timing and Lift Electronic Control (i-VTEC®) technology become even more fuel efficient for 2012. The upcoming Civic Hybrid offers the latest generation of the compact and lightweight Integrated Motor Assist™ (IMA™) gasoline-electric hybrid system and features the first application of a lithium-ion battery in a Honda hybrid.

Building on its emphasis on fuel-economy, most upcoming Civic models receive Honda Eco Assist™ technology, already available in the CR-Z and Insight hybrids. The 2012 Civic is the first U.S. Honda model to employ Eco Assist technology in a gasoline-only powered vehicle. Eco Assist is just one example of how the new Civic can be customized and configured by the drivers to suit individual preferences.

Additionally, Honda is expanding retail sales of the natural gas-powered Civic GX model, which is the only OEM-built, dedicated CNG passenger car assembled in America. The increased availability of the Civic GX helps bring inherently clean-burning natural gas technology to an even broader audience while also supporting diversity in transportation energy resources.

Safety

The 2012 Civic continues to emphasize safety and is anticipated to score well in both the federal government's New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) and the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) vehicle evaluations. The 2001 Honda Civic Coupe was one of the first two passenger cars ever to earn the federal government's top 5-star crash safety rating for the driver and front- and rear-seat passengers in both frontal and side-impact crash tests.

All 2012 Civics are equipped with Vehicle Stability Assist™ (VSA®) as standard equipment. Additionally, the ninth-generation Civic continues to provide Honda's exclusive and innovative Advanced Compatibility Engineering™ (ACE™) body structure for frontal collision energy management.


But for me IMHO. FD pa rin!

FD na ba yung last Civic sa Japan?
------
Mukhang matino naman. Yung body at harapan parang latest Civic US Version din. Yung likod naman EPIC failure. Parang 2004 City / 2011 Hyundai Accent

[EuroFD]

Reviews in the US have been disappointing to say the least. Trying not to be biased, I honestly feel the FD 8th gen to be better in many aspects.

[LNopal]

rumor has it; the 9th gen will have an immediate mmf for 2013 models. dealers in the US want more aggressive looking civics.

[tsupermario]

hindi pa nilalabas dito ang new civic, may possible facelift na siya sa 2013

[tsupermario]

car buyers should be made aware

[Mr. Clean]

hi, saw a feature of 2012 cars in the manila bulletin motoring section today, the picture of the civic there is the euro version which looks better than the USDM Civic. Is this a hint that this is the unit they will release here?

[shen02]

Available na ata to ngayon?kanina sa may balintawak nakakita ako nito. Parang Fd Pero mas maganda talaga ang FD. Haha

[LoBudget]

So is it confirmed that all civic and city for 2012 will be Japan made? Hopefully they are also dropping the price like in India.

[EuroFD]

Honda should seriously consider assembling all vehicle models in the Philippines -- as a result of their Thailand plant flodding.
