Next Generation Honda Civic 2012/13 in India – Not a distant dream.
Its not too late that we heard
about the news of Honda axing Civic sedan in India. Honda had also mentioned
about the next generation 2012 Civic being kept out of Indian market. According
to the latest news from oncars.in, Honda has started testing the latest Civic
in India. Though we have no spy pictures of the new Civic, we got to believe
coz the latest CR-V was also not in Honda’s list for India and now it has been
spotted testing on Indian soil.
The poor sales of Civic, thanks
to its only petrol option made Honda to wipe out Civic from India. This in fact
shattered may Civic fans as Civic has a most dynamic looks which no other car
in its category had. In terms of performance, its stood way ahead than its
competitors. Thankfully the Civic stays and will come in the new avatar,
hopefully with a diesel mill.
Honda is planning to launch its
first diesel car Amaze in the middle of this year which will be soon followed
by diesel options in all Honda models. The 1.5L iDTEC EarthDreams diesel engine
will power Amaze, Brio and Jazz while the City is expected to have both 1.5 and
1.6L iDTEC engines. Of course the new Civic will have the bigger 1.6L iDTEC
engine, after all the Civic is known for its performance and dashing looks.
Since the new Civic is on the
test runs, be alert – you might find some camouflaged in your city. Don’t
forget to snap it and share it on the web.
