10th Generation Civic Owners/ FanClub Discussion Thread

[salik990]

Yea bro, i suggest everyone not to opt for leather options in oriel, i wish there was seats option in turbo civic as well...its only thing i hated most after knocking issue in turbo civic.

[Rahat083144]

The leatherete seat of turbo civic is pathetic, its hard n uncomfortable. My dad drove one time 8months bak n never sat again in my civic coz of those hard seats...he prefer Vezel seats my younger bro car or my A3 seats which is a lot better than the turbo civic seats. Even my reborn fabric seats were soft and comfy.
If anyone going to get civic oriel plz dont get leather option seats, only get the navigation screen option.

I second that. Turbo seats are really hard - though less so than 8thGen's. By comparison, the CL9's seats are so comfy they could cure a slight back pain!

Sir why r u so humble...
U seem to be a good driver, me on the other hand, i was about to bump ur car into the car parked in front because i was not expecting the steering to be that heavy...

[khuram2703]

I have a june 17 delivered Turbo and Leather seats including door panels are perfectly upto the mark...

Yes you all are right..all previous delivered civics leather seat quality was not gud....

Now coming to the comfort and hardness....as i used to have occasional back lower pain....The driving seat i feel it like designed to give u a kind of a lumber support....perfect....comparing it with Grande and 9 Gen
The passanger seat is seriously uncomfortable especially sinked a lot for old as well as young...a height adjuster is also needed to be there.
Rear seats are soft and plush in feel.....not good for 3 on long journey due to high hump in the center.

Bro I have Turbo and I have been able to get 17.3 km/l at speed of 125-130km/h on M2. It has very good mileage if you drive as per limits and very good acceleration if you need it.

[khuram2703]

Did you noticed that the bar remains at 20 and above from 80 to 120!!!!!
Due to Turbo boost action.....

All Turbo charged engines are way more economical on high speed as compare to NA due to forced induction principle....
I wish to check it on motorway with both Turbo and oriel set at 130 or 120 cruise control for comparision

[khuram2703]

Ooh Yea!!!

By the way i have seen Turbos more than 1.8 coming towards Lahore.....just a coincidence......

On the HACPL PLANT entrance and exit seven to eight 0 meter Turbos for delivery were rolling out including a Red one also.....

The ones who are waiting, check dealerships

[salik990]

The quality is alright but i was talking about how hard it is like sitting on plastic or wooden chair with 1cm cushion. My dad got backpain when he drove for an hr and plus u feel more bumpy ride due to hard seat.

[salik990]

Bro last week i took out my A3 after 3 weeks, it was day/night difference in comfort and i was so used to with those hard seats tht i completely felt relax n comfy on my A3 also my hilux revo seats r hards as my civic's as i m driving Revo/Civic mostly these days.

[khuram2703]

Bhai jaan!!!
Civic aur Audi ka tou koi comparision he nahi banta.....actually you have felt the comfort of German car which are specifically designed for long journeys on Autobahn......thats why you absolutely felt the right thing.

[arkhitekt]

With one thing in favour of Revo if yours has oem leather, and that thing is: PKDM Toyota's oem leather doesn't crack, wear, deform, discolour or fade as quickly as Atlas Honda leather.

[khuram2703]

But i was unlucky, mine Grande had driver and passenger seat leather cracked from left side and centre.....i think was a VENDOR issue....The claim was processed but meanwhile i sold it......

I heard that civic has some patches of pure leather while Grande is leather rite (rexin)

[arkhitekt]

On Civic the thigh and back is leather while rest is halka wala rexine. Seat sides and rear, door panels, console and everything else is the same substandard rexine.

Don't know about Toyota but the way it ages it can't be rexine. And if yours cracked so soon it was for sure a bad batch of leather not rexine

[khuram2703]

Yes....but in case of corolla i confirmed from dealership Toyota Garden. It is also mentioned in the specs on indus site....its leather rite rexin.

Dear Bro!
Leather always get wrinkled when ages, cracked only with a sharp object.....
I have my cousins Thai Accord 2005....it has pure all leather with wrinkles but not cracked

[arkhitekt]

Yes but there is a level to those wrinkles and cracking. I am posting a picture of my 12 year old 2005 E class and take a look at the leather. It hasn't aged as horribly and the car is 122,000 kms driven in these pictures. I know there is a reason that its a Mercedes and it has premium leather etc but my point is that leather also has standards and what Honda Atlas is giving is probably the bottom of that automotive leather standard

[salik990]

Not comparing with A3 but other cars r also comfy compare to my civic turbo.

[salik990]

I hope its original leather but it look like leatherite, i had Thai Vigo which had original leather n this Revo one look fake leather maybe its coz of different color.

[salik990]

I thought civic got leatherite not original leather material.

[khuram2703]

Yes even if u compare it with camry and accord

[zwk641]

Is this only turbo owners group?
