"Appeals more to the head than the heart" That is the most apt way of describing this one. The 8th gen really was (and still is) a gem. With the CVT, Honda has probably already lost the boy racer segment of buyers... Perhaps the manual will come in a "sport" trim or some limited edition.. or maybe not. Nothing wrong with being optimistic about it.

Almost 95% of us drive in day to day traffic and rarely go to the twisties to push the car and we know how much of a pain the manual gearbox is in the currently ever increasing city traffic. Honda has taken the more practical step of giving only the petrol automatic because they know that even if they introduce the manual, 90% of the people who are requesting manual here will still go and buy the automatic. For a company, the stats are more important for their business. I am fine with the CVT and you should drive it in the city to know how it makes the car so effortless to drive in the city traffic. As Glen said, we can shift to the manual mode and have manual control with the paddles. HAPPY THAT HONDA BROUGHT THE ICON BACK TO INDIA. I bet people are going to fall just for its design, both inside and out. Btw, nice review as always Glen. #PDArmy

This is extremely off-putting for many people. Good to see you guys back to standard reviewing format.

Ground clearance is the answer, if it wasn't already obvious to you. im not sure which shitty SUVs youre referring to, but assuming you're talking about Creta, Ecosport and the likes (which are not even SUVs), theres a difference of ~80mm in ground clearance between the Civic and those cars. im not sure which roads youre driving on in India that are so pristine they compell you to always drive in your low riding performance vehicle, but you oughta know that a large amount of the population does not confine themselves to that 1.5 mile radius of "best roads" in town. do you even know what youre talking about?

I agree that we have sub standard road but we don't live in Mongolia. The cars are more than capable to handle these bad roads. There is a reason people choose cars over SUVs when it comes to performance and handling and I was merely pointing that out. And cars are more fun to drive around in the city and on the highways. A large amount of the population doesn't wonder outside the city more than once or twice a year but yet choose to buy a SUV. This is true even in many developed countries where the roads ARE PRISTINE. And yes I know what I am talking about. If SUVs are your choice, cars are mine.

Always great to see D-segment proper sedans with aerodynamic style and class like Civic ,Octavia , Elantra , Jetta , Cruze and Corolla Altis rather than some ugly dispproportionate bulgy SUVs in the same price bracket.

I still remember the first time I saw the previous generation Civic on the road when it was launched in India.. One look and I went “wooaaahh it looks damn sexy !!” This one doesn’t do that.. but maybe it’s just cos all cars look good nowadays..

I have 2 questions, 1 When Octavia gets 170 odd HP power petrol engine at around similar price point why can't Honda, 2. At least 2 litre petrol engine which they already have powering CRV in India. I think Honda wants to make more money with less

Amit shrimali I'm interested in owning a used Civic, as a can't afford new one, also used cars Civic s 2008 forward are on sale for like under 4-5 lakhs, so would you guide me about 2008 Civic cost of ownership? Like what is average, maintenance in general, then part replacements, do they have old Civic parts, do we have to wait days to get parts? how expensive is Civic to maintain compare to city? Or should I opt for 2012-13 Honda City at same price, I'm confused need help, thanks in advance for your reply.

@@rpwzh5403 Hi Civic's maintenance totally depends on in what condition you are able to find a used car (difficult to find). I do just one service in a year, which includes oil change majorly. If used carefully civic doesn't drill any holes in your pocket. Civic parts are very much available if you are staying in metro cities. I always get it serviced from a trusted but not company's workshop. My civic has clocked around 80,000 kms and the major expenses i have incurred are replacing all suspension bushes (procured from Thailand as showroom ones were double the cost) and clutch assembly (it had become hard and also mentioned in 60,000 km service interval in service manual, cost 18000) I don't know spare part cost of Honda City hence can't comment which will be easier on your pocket. But Civic is in different league altogether. City doesn't stand a chance in power, ride, driving dynamics and comfort. Try to find a low mileage civic (around 50,000), don't step backwards to pay little extra for a well kept car. specifically check suspension condition, clutch and rattling noises.
