Honda has confirmed its new Civic diesel manual model will be available for purchase from next month.
The much-anticipated Honda Civic will be priced from £20,120, with buyers able to select from a number of different trim and engine options.
Top of the range is the EX trim, which is also available with a £600 tech upgrade pack which adds on LED headlights, LED fog lights, heated rear seats and wireless phone charging.
In terms of engine, the 1.6 i-DTEC will offer 120 PS at 4,000 rpm and 300 Nm of torque at 2,000 rpm.
“The arrival of the diesel variant completes the line-up for the Civic hatchback in the UK,” commented Phil Webb, head of car at Honda UK.
He added: “This 1.6 i-DTEC is the most technologically advanced diesel unit we have launched to market and will deliver a very competitive offering for both the retail customer and the fleet market.”
Honda plans to release the automatic version of the Civic hatchback to the UK market during summer.
