The new civic has landed

It is bold, it is beautiful and it is almost here. It has been re-designed and re-imagined inside and out; moreover it makes its owners dare to dream; the kind of dreams that inspired Honda designers when creating this bold new Civic. The 10th Generation Civic sedan is ready to challenge the status quo, from its sporty and bold exterior to the luxurious and spacious interior; it surely will elevate the compact sedan sophistication to a whole new level.
Bold, exterior design
The new Civic looks fun. It has an aggressive stance, a sportier look and the sleek sculptured lines that make it stand out unlike any other Civic before. With a low wide stance and fierce new shape, the Civic cuts an athletic form that stands out from the pack.
Key exterior features include
* 17” Alloy wheels (sporty alloys on 1.5T Sport, 16” steel on 1.8 Comfort)
* LED daytime running lights
* LED headlights (1.5T Sport and 1.5T Executive)
* Front fog lights (LED on 1.5T Sport)
* Wing spoiler on 1.5T Sport

Interior comfort and convenience
The interior of the Civic is a place you want to be, where a flawlessly arranged instrument panel awaits. Premium soft touch surfaces, comfortable and luxurious leather seats scream ‘get in’ for a thrilling drive. The carefully stitched leather steering wheel feels solid and the controls are within reach; making it safer for the driver to focus on the road ahead. Not only did the all new Civic get bold looks and design but also gives our drivers’ confidence to enjoy every driving experience to the fullest.
The new Civic is bigger than its predecessor improving spaciousness and comfort; the rear seats split 60/40 in the event more loading space is required. Also, the multi-functional centre console with sliding armrest offers added convenience of storing small items on the go. Staying connected is easy with the new technology gadgets now standard. Whether it’s keeping occupants entertained, in-touch or out of harm’s way, the new Civic takes the things that matter the most and puts them right where they are needed.
The new remote engine starter offers added convenience and is linked to smart keyless entry system. By simply pressing a button on the remote, the engine will start so the interior of the car will either be warmed up or cooled down; just in time before occupants get inside. The system works within 40m radius and the car remains locked. Now that’s technology, reinvented.
