Honda Australia has expanded its Civic small sedan line-up with the arrival of the special-edition VTi-S Luxe variant, priced from $26,490 before on-road costs.
Based on the VTi-S, the VTi-S Luxe commands a $2000 premium but compensates buyers with several luxury-focused inclusions.
As such, leather-appointed seat trim, heated front seats, an eight-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, a ‘Piano Black’ sports front grille and standard metallic or pearlescent paint are the key upgrades.
These come in addition to the keyless entry and start, leather steering wheel, 7.0-inch touchscreen multimedia system, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto support, passenger-side ‘LaneWatch’ blind-spot camera, front and rear parking sensors, 16-inch alloy wheels and front foglights found in the VTi-S.
Four exterior paint colours are on offer, including ‘Lunar Silver’, ‘Modern Steel’ and ‘Cosmic Blue’ metallics, as well as ‘White Orchid’ pearlescent.
As per the VTi-S, the VTi-S Luxe draws motivation from a 1.8-litre naturally aspirated four-cylinder petrol engine that produces 104kW of power at 6500rpm and 174Nm of torque at 4300rpm.
Drive is exclusively sent to the front wheels via a continuously-variable transmission (CVT).
Claimed fuel consumption on the combined cycle test is 6.4 litres per 100 kilometres, while carbon dioxide emissions have been tested at 148 grams per kilometre.
