Update: Civic 2016 has been officially launched in the Philippines, check out the full story here.

MANILA: Honda will soon treat the Philippines auto market with the 10th generation Honda Civic.   Implying that the 9th generation Civic that is currently serving our market will soon disappear in papers. Like all the previous generation Civic’s, the 9th one too created a reputed place for itself in the market, competing with the likes of Toyota Vios and Chevrolet Cruze. Also, the all-new Civic on its arrival is expected to perform on the same lines as its predecessor.

2016 Civic arrival is more than certain as Honda Philippines is now and again caught speaking about the same. Thus, revealing information about the new Civic in bits and pieces. Also, a leaked brochure image was recently posted online revealing 2016 Honda Civic price.

Below we have compared the old and new Civic, pointing out some major additions made in the later by Honda.
