2025 Honda Civic facelift open for bookings in Malaysia, launching in January

Honda Malaysia has announced that the new 2025 Honda Civic facelift is now open for bookings. Set for a launch in January 2025, those who book now could be entitled for an “Early Bird Exclusive” offer that includes a free RM1,500 service voucher.

The Honda Civic facelift made its world debut back in May this year, and it is already available in Thailand. Among the key updates for the facelift are the new bumper designs, new grille design, new Google Built-in system (for the American market), a new Bose sound system (for the American “Sport Touring Hybrid” variant), and a some new wheel designs. Some of the updates mentioned, may not make it to the Malaysian market.

While Honda Malaysia has yet to share information on the variant offerings for this new Civic, a new web page has been created on Honda Malaysia’s website, revealing some information. What we can be sure of is the both the 1.5-litre turbocharged engine and 1.0-litre hybrid system will be carried over into this new version of the Civic.

Other confirmed features for the new 2025 Honda Civic facelift include new 18-inch alloy wheels, Honda Sensing, and Honda Connect. Based on the “Hero Car” used in the promotional assets, we can also confirm that there will be an e:HEV RS variant as we do now, as the car features a blue-accent emblem and an “RS” badge.

The Honda Civic in Malaysia is currently available in 4 variants – E, V, RS, and e:HEV RS. Prices for the Civic start from RM131,900 and go all the way up to RM167,900. The Civic also comes with a 5-year/unlimited mileage general warranty and free labour service which is applicable up to 5 times within 100,000 km or 5 years.
