Overview
The Honda Civic FE facelift is a five-seat C-segment sedan launched in 2025, aimed at buyers who want a front-wheel-drive sedan with petrol or hybrid power. It starts from RM133,900 and spans four variants, from the 180 hp 1.5 E to the 322 hp 2.0 RS e:HEV hybrid.
Civic in 2026 — what's new
The Honda Civic carries into 2026 in Malaysia unchanged, with the 1.5 E, 1.5 V, 1.5 RS Turbo and 2.0 RS e:HEV making up the range. Overseas 2026 e:HEV previews in Thailand and Indonesia introduce S+ Shift simulated gearshifts, while blind-spot information is also cited for Thailand. Neither is established as a Malaysian Civic update. A Honda Malaysia 2026 promotion includes the Civic.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should pick the RM133,900 1.5 E. It has the same 1,498 cc, 180 hp petrol engine, front-wheel drive and CVT automatic as the RM144,900 1.5 V and RM149,900 1.5 RS Turbo. On paper, the RM11,000 and RM16,000 gaps buy trim rather than mechanicals, so check the equipment list before spending more. Pay RM167,900 for the 2.0 RS e:HEV only if the hybrid powertrain and its 322 hp rating are the priority.

Honda Civic buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The Civic gives buyers a clear choice between three mechanically identical 180 hp turbo petrol variants and a 322 hp hybrid flagship. Its RM133,900 entry price is plainly higher than the Proton S70, BYD Seal 6, Aion ES and Mazda 3 Sedan, though it remains below the Toyota Corolla and Peugeot 408. The E is the rational starting point; the e:HEV is the distinct alternative rather than just another trim step.
