Honda Civic VTi Prosmatec 1.8 i-VTEC Car Reviews

I recently has bought new civic 2012 i-VTEC prosmatec. Overall I love the car and its driving experience. So far I have drove 1000km and on 1000Km its giving me 10.5 km/l average with my drive mostly in city area.

Previously I own 2006 and 2010 Corolla GLI. As I compare my new civic with Toyota Corolla below are few differences
1. Suspension of Civic is really hard as compare to the smooth suspension of Corolla. I really miss my corolla when driving on bumpy roads :). But when i compare its Handling its way too good then corolla.

2. civic has excellent acceleration and a very good auto gear shift. I have drive 1.8 and 1.6 altis but civic is faster than both and I have compare reborn 2006-2012, new civic has the same engine and transmission but better drive than its predecessors'. New civic is faster then the old one becoz of weight reduction.

3. New civic has many good features and a very decent and elegant interior, which give you complete feel of control over the car. steering controls, iMID display, height adjustable seats and a beautiful blue glow in dashboard lights.

4. The ECON botton is a good addition, but as far as its effect on fuel economy is concern its not very significant. Yes if you are a rash drive or like to push your car hard then ECON option will save some fuel for you as it limits your car performance and change your driving style. For me as I often drve with soft foot its effect on economy is almost nil and I really to like to drive with ECON on as its limits your gear shift and for downshift you have to push car hard and its response get too slow. new 1.6 dual vvti altis is way better in economy then new civic.

5. There is no engine noise in cabin and you really enjoys a peace in drive, but then when you push car its gives you a roaring sound and a great acceleration. Normally at 80km/hr speed RPM is stable at 1.5 and at 120km/hr its on 2.5. The fuel economy on highways is way better then in city and it can easily give to 15km/hr on highway.

6. front projected lights are a good addition from honda.

7. and off-course immobilizer.

Overall its a very nice car. I love the shape and love its interior. Being a corolla fan for years, now I'm enjoying my Honda Civic.

Yup friends honestly as compare to reborn, this car has a better drive better economy, improved handling with EPS and EBD. front drive side and passenger side airbags in i-vtec variant.

I went through few of the reviews already present. I don't think, it is like reborn or not better than the reborn for higher price. Price is a bit higher but what else you expect in current scenarios.

It has added features for example cruise control that doesn't even come with CL7 or CL9 no doubt Toyota started offering it way back. Then it has climate control which Toyota is still not offering. Plus new improved Honda multimedia display system which is far much better than the cheap china Reborn one.

The ECON mode should make a difference i mean if Honda is claiming it, it should as compare to reborn which will give almost the same mileage/liter even if you drive it at super economy RPM.

Moreover it has other small luxury features like jackknife key, door lamps, aux, Intelligent multi info display, key less trunk opener etc.

All these features are new and they do add value. Car lovers pay money for all these nitties-grittiest cause this make up to luxury that we all want in life.

In the end design may not be appealing for few but as always people will start loving it in no time and reborn will grow old.

7th and 8th generation civic (2006 eagle eye and reborn shape) are much better then this 9th generation (model 2013). It is not at all appealing from both front and back. Not much difference in comfort level.Performance is good. fuel economy is almost same as old model.Petrol prices are gradually rising don't know about cng and its mileage. Nothing extra ordinary features and very much over priced car. With same price one can find much better vehicles, specially you will know the difference if you have drived some good imported vehicles. Atlas motors and Indus motors very much worried about imported vehicles already still they couldn't compete even imported cars are 4 years older.

Exterior is not as much impressive but interior is quite impressive and new features like cruise control, climate control, ECO mode ; better fuel economy, Automatic trunk, additional display of warnings and petrol mileage along with rpm justified the tradition of being competitive by honda.But the quality of plastic used seems pathetic !! The previous model "Reborn" was more impressive in terms of exterior and interior, it was totally a new package from its previous model 2006. The new civic seems to be the blend of reborn and latest city. It wud be a sure fail

Well its quite early to say much about new civic. Exterior is not as much majestic as it supposed to be but nterior is quite impressive and new features like cruise control, climate control, ECO mode ; better fuel economy, Automatic trunk, additional display of warnings and petrol mileage along with rpm justified the tradition of being competitive by honda. By my part the previous model "Reborn" was more impressive in terms of exterior and interior, it was totally a new package from its previous model 2006. The new civic seems to be the blend of reborn and latest city. In this year of financial crunch increasing the price of new civic by 200 hundred thousand from the previous model can also hamper the sales. Still ample of things are in the pipeline to discover.
