Delivery Time of New Honda Civic is Almost 1 Year
Earlier this month, Honda introduced the 11th generation Honda Civic 2022 in three variants. At the time of launch, the delivery time of all variants was October-November, 2022. In just two weeks, the company has increased the wait time to 11 months. As per the new schedule, Honda will deliver the upper two Civic variants in February 2023 and the base variant in August 2022.
That means the Civic Oriel and Civic RS buyers will have to wait for 11 months, while the Civic Standard buyers will get their cars in five months.
“There could be a price revision” – Honda Dealership
If you think the increased delivery time is a bummer, here’s another shocker.
“We are telling our customers that the delivery times for the two high-end variants is February next year, but we are also informing them that there could be a price revision by then,” a Honda dealership told the source.
You book the new Civic now; not only do you have to wait for almost a year, but in the meantime, if the price goes up, you’ll have to pay the new amount to get the car.
Current Prices of New Honda Civic
Honda Civic Standard costs Rs. 5,099,000. (New delivery time: August 2022)
Honda Civic Oriel costs Rs. 5,399,000. (New delivery time: February 2023)
Honda Civic RS costs Rs. 6,149,000. (New delivery time: February 2023)
The booking price is Rs. 1 million for the Standard and Oriel variants and Rs. 1.2 million for the RS variant.
The increased delivery time and expected price jump could upset the interested Civic buyers and hurt the car’s sales. Honda knows that better than anybody else. Why the company decided to change course is a mystery. But then again, every Honda move is a mystery, isn’t it?
