Civic in 2026 — what's new

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should start with the RM133,900 1.5 E: it has the same 1,498 cc, 180 hp turbo petrol engine, front-wheel drive and CVT as the RM144,900 1.5 V and RM149,900 1.5 RS Turbo. On paper, the RM11,000 and RM16,000 gaps are for trim rather than mechanicals, so check the equipment list closely. Pay RM167,900 for the 2.0 RS e:HEV if the petrol-hybrid drivetrain and its listed 322 hp matter more than the RM34,000 premium over the E.

Honda Civic buyer's guides & reviews
Verdict
The FE facelift keeps the Civic’s established four-variant formula: three 180 hp turbo petrol sedans and one 322 hp petrol-hybrid. It is priced well above the Proton S70, BYD Seal 6 and Aion ES, while the base Civic sits below the Toyota Corolla and Peugeot 408. The E is the clear mechanical baseline; the RS e:HEV is the distinct alternative rather than simply a better-trimmed turbo.
