DACH Supersonic July 29, 2017 Share July 29, 2017 Japan is finally producing the 1.5T Civic Sedan! https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2017-honda-civic-hatch-and-sedan-launched-in-japan-119475.html I wonder if PI will bring in this model? If so it would be interesting if the price is reasonable. It is just 1.2 million Yen more than what a Fit 1.3 cost in Japan. Furthermore including Honda sensing and Made in Japan. Looks the same, but no infotainment system and covered up with a black plastic is very weird. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

teomingern 6th Gear July 30, 2017 Share July 30, 2017 Wonder if KM will switch to source Civic from Japan again. That's not going to happen... Honda's strategy is to supply SEA with cars from the Thailand plant... only the PIs will get their from Japan since they have no access to the supply line from the Thailand plant...

kelaihoyin 5th Gear July 30, 2017 Share July 30, 2017 Are there any JDM civics in the first place? https://www.autoevol...pan-119475.html Yup the sedan is manufactured in their Saitama factory. That's not going to happen... Honda's strategy is to supply SEA with cars from the Thailand plant... only the PIs will get their from Japan since they have no access to the supply line from the Thailand plant... That's true but it happened before. HR-V were originally from Thailand, and with the impact of PI Vezel they had no choice but bring in the Japan made.

Let the PIs be a roaring success with the Jap model n hopefully history will repeat itself like the Vezel/HRV situation before n either Kah brings in the Japanese versions with the Honda sensing or at the very least, price it more competitively. Competition is always good for consumers! 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dannnn 4th Gear August 9, 2017 Share August 9, 2017 Civic wont have much impact as its current cevs is neutral. So i believe they will adjust or do some setting to control their reading to remain neutral Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cravecott98 6th Gear August 12, 2017 Share August 12, 2017 i am not sure if its just me, but when i was test driving the new civic, i feel that the roof is actually very low, almost can brush against it as compare to my current FD. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The car is low but when seated the headroom should be similar to that of FD. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
therock Supersonic August 13, 2017 Share August 13, 2017 The car is low but when seated the headroom should be similar to that of FD. When I tested it, it's lower than my FD.. So you end up putting the seat even lower, so it's harder for the older person to get in and out... If you are keen on the car, do try getting in and out a few times and see if it's comfortable.. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
