- Having reviewed the Civic in Chiangmai earlier on (evomalaysia.com...) I've finally had the chance to drive the Malaysian version. Not sure why but I kinda find ours drive slightly better, and the rear seats are not as soft as the ones I drove in Thailand.
If you appreciate what I do, please:

I wish i afford this car....but family first.
everything fine in this car, but wondering the rear seat, did u find comfortable bobby for long drive and also to get in and out from the car?
anybody deciding between 1.8 and 1.5t should just get the 1.5 its totally worth it... but some of the interior materials (door arm rest, center console, aircon vent) are very plasticky
Great review Bobby, was thinking to get this or the Elantra sport , Elantra every thing was good but only the red seat which I think is too over . Hope u can do a review for Elantra sport which is similar price tag to this Honda Civic and make a comparison . All the best
Keep it up man, I enjoy your reviews
The previous gen 9 Civic to me is a major let down. I'm a girl and even I balked at it when I test drove it. It's good Honda (and yes, Honda Malaysia) to perk up and improve their product offerings. I hope this will prompt other car manufacturers to give better equipment, especially for a certain Japanese brand here that seems to offer bare minimal specifications with nothing to go on other than reliability and resale value...
One major setback to me is that you can't fold down the rear seats :(
With the huge boot and rear passenger space, that would really help in loading long items, especially furniture from Ikea.
+johnmatthewlow88 it's a give and take, because it greatly aides sound proofing, and honda actually engineered a cross beam behind the seats, aiding structural rigidity.
Beautiful crazy wing.. :D I love the Civic FD and this.
Honda CR-V and Civic 2017/2018 especially 1.5 turbo model, experienced serious oil dissolution or contamination problem in several countries. Since you touted the car as fantastic, sleek and well designed, what is your thought on this gas/oil leak issue?
Means Honda's aggressive expansion has taken a toll on its reliability. Anf in no way they can be mentioned in the same breath as Toyota now i guess ... Malaysian market also receive plenty of feedback on reliability and quality issues ...
thanks for sharing!
Can you also do the comparison between this civic and mazda 3?
Hi bobby, I am your big fan. would appreciate if you can review premium suv of the year BMW X1.
+Kok Way Chong ok cool i'll try and get
Thanks for the review. Accord FL next? Thanks
viknesh248 thanks! Sure!
Hi bobby this honda civic 1.5 turbo premium or normal 1.5 turbo because got two variant
is it possible for a 1.8 litre to get the same LED headlamps as this 1.5?
Bobby, may ask does this car allow andriod phone?
hi,will you be doing a review for the 2017 facelift honda city?
Bobby, pls review the Toyota chr.
Thanks for the review Bobby. I really like this one, being my 2nd Civic. I bought the RS model in Australia and am still loving it. I took it on a country dirt track up a hill and took this shot: www.flickr.com/photos/sfe-co2/32061937615/in/dateposted-public/
I was doing about 5.3L/100km....on a new engine. Impressive!!
+Victor Wong lovely! Thanks for sharing!
some says a new civic have a lot of problems..it's better waiting another bacth..what do you think?
Nickblog Dendy i heard of that one car in thailand overheated ... but after that no substantial actual cases. Maybe people are afraid because it's a more complex car now. But judging from honda's past record, i have great confidence for their cars and service.
Bobby Ang what colour is this
Bobby can you recommend a good Dashcam ? The Xiaomi Dashcam cannot change the language to English and why did you say the Hero4 is stupid lol
Can u compare with jetta
Interior back seat review gelap la bro,, next time jump in some light
bro.. great review in all your reviews but try not to pronounce that RRrrrrrrr so much. Keep it up
What camera do u use bro?
Stupid GoPro Hero 4 and the lousy BestSteadyCam which isn't steady at all.
Premium turbo or turbo ? Which should I choose
Whats the price diff?
114k, 121k
is the interior space bigger than the f30?
Darren Fabian slightly yea
i see... btw how's the 0-100 figure
this car is massive
Actually, it's more Honda's ingenious interior packaging than outright size. This new Civic has a wheelbase of only 2700mm, compared to the F30's wheelbase of 2800mm.
Takai mukai ukai
I just apply it tody
Yyooo...BobbY is this car can do engine wash ?? hehehe scary maaa..hehehe
rear seats cant be fold..boo honda!
another boring japanese car. "Interior packaging"...Lol. Sound like an uncle.
+Wayne Tan what car do you like sir? :)
what its different than my Honda civic over here In US .
juan Alcantar the US version is probably better?
juan Alcantar paddle shift
After a very disappointing 9th gen, Honda responded with this 10th gen winner.
I’m so glad I waited to buy the 2018 so any and all issues could be ironed out with the 10th gen model since it’s 2016 debut.
What a ride! Very little turbo lag and tight handling. And if your a performance junkie, you can even mod this baby to squeeze out over 200 hp with 192 torque through the Hondata module. A super easy hack. Nuts!
I like when you mentioned every crz owner would love to have this car's engine in their car. Im a crz owner and im switching to the fc since im a family man now and this car gives space and its sporty at the same time. And of course im getting the 1.5 TC bcoz of the engine and the pedal shifters
Hi Bobby, I’m dilemma in between Mazda 3 sedan or civic TC . Im looking forward on the comparison video on both of the cars
I am just disappointed with the noise level, especially during heavy downpour, the raindrops hitting the roof sounds like pebbles
U know what, noise level during heavy downpour is low in my Proton Preve.
Been a long time viewer of your channel, your reviews are crazy good. You talk about so many things that no other reviewers think to include, but they are so vital to note. Awesome Bobby!
i can afford this but i enjoy montly fluid rather than miskin byr loan kereta every month.
Same here. If i were to buy this car, the monthly is just 1/10 of my salary. I drive a myvi so that i can spend more money to travel the world
Ive been watching the reviews for both variant in youtube over and over again and still cant make up my mind to choose 1.5 or 1.8
+Kent Hoong let me help you with this. If the 1.5 is within your budget, go for it. Because the experience is something no Civic buyers has been able to experience for the past 20 years, that is to be able to keep up with the european turbo sedans on the highway and not being bullied off the fast lane by Jettas. But if you dont care about this, just wanted a decent car, then the 1.8 is by all means, a very good car. The new Mazda 3 GVC is coming next week, fantastic handling and really high end safety systems. A more high tech car than the Civic but slightly smaller interior
Bobby Ang I've tested the Mazda 3 as well, love the muscular exterior and plain simplicity yet high end feel of the interior. The feel you get from a Mazda is it's a driver's car. Civic, all rounder champ. Btw, looking forward for your review of the mazda. Thx!
+Kent Hoong alrighty i sure will when i get the chance. The Mazda 3 has a premium car's interior
Hi Bobby, i know you are a passionate car reviewer. May i request for local brands car like Proton and Perodua (etc- Bezza / Saga / Persona ) because I'm just a average income family. Really Appreciate it Bobby :) Im sure many will love it.
REPLY
David Wang he can't. From what I heard, he was banned (not sure if right term) from reviewing local brands because of his criticism. Thus, the local car brands never borrowed him the cars and so he can't review them. This is what I heard/know, correct me if I'm wrong
Do you know why? Because Proton can't afford to (censored)😅.... Hahaha
Not interested in Proton and Perodua for viewers out of Malaysia.
There are a bunch of Proton and Perodua review already. BTW, they already review X70 what.
When you have no choice but to choose the red colour civic... and watched this video... T__T
Great review, Bobby! Subscribed. Btw how about Android user like me? Is it integrated with Android Auto? Can I play Spotify and use Google Maps?
Tiring seating position in this car. Not a best car for a long journey.
spare the door bin man....seems most do so... all half of the door only...not full length
bobby, thank you so much for ur awesome review. apart of watching this i also did my test drive on the TC/P & i tried everything haha. and i decided to take the 1.5 TC/P maroon color today :) love it.
+Arif Yusof (Araveflare) congrats!
i better choose mit.colt ctz 1.5L mivec turbo..hahahahah...just anoying....
Hi bobby ang, really appreciated if you can make a review for mercedes A180 SE 2013-2015 ? I was thinking to buy it (recon) in a short time.
Bunyi tayar dan enjin masuk ke dalam ruang kabin ke bila bawa 100km/h+ ??
alif azizan saya tak rasa ada dengan kereta bukan nasional untuk segmen C...
Hi I'm hoping some Honda Civic owners could help me out. Recently someone stole my number plate along with the frame. I'm trying to buy a new plate online but I don't know the measurement of the stock plate. Can someone please measure the length and height of the front and back plate and let me know? Sorry for the trouble but I would be sooo grateful for your help. Thank you and God Bless !
CVT gearbox has alot of overheat issues how does the CVT perform with this turbo engine. i want to get this car but still worried since it has no dual clutch transmission to translate the massive 230nm torque.
What is the different between this car and honda civic in Australia as shown in this link video below?
th-cam.com/video/duRp2i9bMN4/w-d-xo.html
Hi Bobby, wanna ask you about the fuel consumption on 1.5 turbo and 1.8 which 1 is much more friendly ?
Too many software & difficult to use.In 5-6 years maybe will cause more money to maintenance it.
Hi Bobby. Am a great fan of your review, especially on the way u describe the interior and exterior design details.
Would love it if you were to reviewed other cars in this segment too, like the Toyota Altis and Kia Cerato facelifts. Thanks!
Rear looks like ketam
now my car is (2011)FD2,want to ask every body is want to change FC?
Hi bobby,,can i know what is the different between honda civic tc and honda civic tc-p??
Bobby sir, RX 350 pls? =)
Which color should I take. I’m getting one next few months
Bobby Ang - A question which i need your recommendation. Understand that the Honda 1.5 TCP tyres are Continental MC5. I heard it's not that good. I need some recommendation on good quality tyres when i drive be in on the wet or dry road and most importantly noise reduction if you will. So any recommendations?
The MC6 is wayy better, and matches the PS4. The ContiExtremeContact Sport is a PS4s par on par tyre, and of course there's the ContiSportContact 5p which is a great OEM tyre as well. Michelin PS4/4s are well known top notch tyres too. Then there's the Goodyear Eagle F1 AS3 and Bridgestone S001. I know Pirelli Pzero has good performances too, but it looses out to the PS4s and ContiExtremeContact Sport in comfort and road noise. But these are all tier 1 tyres if you wanna spend top money. If you want just high performance range, then i would recommend either MC6 or PS4. If you wanna go comfort, the Michelin Premacy or ContiPremiumContacts are great. Going below your MC5, or slightly lower than that i find the Bridgestone Turanza wayy better than the Pirelli Cinturatos too, these are entry level tyres from well known brands like Michelin Energy or Falken Ziex or ContiComfortContact, which really have little performance to talk about before you go all into unknown territory.
I'll be getting my Malaysian 2016 Honda Civic 1.5TCP in Two Weeks!!!
Congrats! It's lovely!
hows the car after a year
i notice the steering wheel turn when going uturn..just 1 full circle ..so lock to lock in 2turns
No matter how great the design and reputation, when it comes out from our Malaysian assembly line, the QC is a bit of a letdown. I was fixing some accessories in the shop where a bit of wire routing was required, the technician told me that some parts below the dashboard, some screws were missing! A bit disappointed with the Melaka plant.
SPI C80 What do you recommend then?
Hey Bobby! I like the way u point out all parts of the interior because i pay much attention to a car's interior (there's where we spend our driving in). A quickie; how was the noise insulation compared to previous Honda's and did u find the rear seats to be positioned abit too low to provide thigh support for adults, or not? Keep up the awesome work buddy!
Spot on! You're very observant as well. The rear seats are too low for old folks. But at least the Malaysian version's cushion isn't as soft as the Thai version, which sinks even lower when you sit in. When you sit in properly, the seats will feel low, but when you slouch down like how most of us do, it'll be better. Noise insulation is very good for its class. Thank you so much for your feedback! Will work harder! Meanwhile if you want to read my written review, you can just google "2016 honda civic review malaysia" :)
Hi Mr. Bobby, I enjoy watching your car review. Your car enthusiasm lit up my passion about car. However, maybe you can test the car’s acceleration in a proper track, it is safer for yourself and the others. As sporty as civic can be, it is still a family sedan, it was never meant to be driven fast. Plus, there are other road user on the road, when you accelerated the civic, you put other road user in danger. Hope your channel grow and become more and more professional.
+TheJokertkngo thanks! But we have to test these cars on the road to give good feedbacks. And i'm known as the safest drive in our industry. The captain slow. :)
Please review Honda Civic Sedan 2018 Diesel 1.6L 9AT
Very bad video angle
Very nice car to own and drive but too many problems
Dear Bobby, appreciate if you could review the 2017 Kia Cerato 1.6 K3.
can I use my android hp...such as msg, whatsapp and others? how?
cannot i try dy
Bob Zaidi Yes u can. its called android auto. u need to download the apk file to install it. not from the app store as it is not available for msia yet. but the car HU can support and most ppl will get the apk elsewhere. very easy. but they wont let u see ur message. u will get notification and it will read out for u. u can control ur phone book via the Head unit as well. other function is google map navi (will connect and show arrow on ur speedometer), sporify etc...
Lim Sin Neng lim when we use android auto for navigation, can it navigate on the car without navigation?
good video, but please still follow traffic rules while u firming, u hits the red light @ the end of the video which endanger others ppl life bro...
+Lee Adam dont worry, i never run red lights, that T junction is familiar for me. After our side's turn, it's for the left side from main road to turn right into my adjacent lane. As the left turn right, i can turn left, but i can not turn right. Thanks for your concern.
Is there any major problem with this car ? (for my sis)
Bobby can i request you 2 review the latest toyota camry plzz
NICE REVIEW!
We are waiting for the launch for the 10th generation of the Honda accord.
Sunroof?
Where is my honda civic😭😭.. i placed booking around june 2018(tax holiday period).. but still waiting until today..😔
YQ Chan same goes to me. Waiting game strong🤦♂️
Have u guys gotten the car? How is it?

does this car have blind sport monitoring?
what color is this honda civic model? TY
Which one better, honda civic or hyundai ionic
you sound a bit of Honda fan boy...you should be more neutral
+Johan Isha well i'm a simple man, i see a car i like, i say it. :)
Happy Lunar New Year. Great review.watched it for the 3rd time ! 😁
Bro how about cla 200 and this car ?
Sound system bagus ke?
bro, its quite dark in this vid.
Price in malaysia??
Are they bring in A Hybrid Model
How compare to focus 1.5L
Never posted this, but absolutely love your videos. Like many, I was in the market right for a C-Segment right about when this video came up. Let's just say I close to 9 months on, I love my Civic. Keep up the good work, Bobby. Cheers.
+Ivan Annasdass thank you!
SHOW ME THE HALOGEN PROJECTOR
So Bobby how does this compare to the Cla 250? Which one is better if we don't mind about the brand?
You mean the first gen CLA? That is a horrible car. Jarring ride, cramp, rough transmission, poor sound proofing, but good looking car.
@@BobbyAngmalaysia yeah the first 250 with sunroof.. Because before this I've thought it was just me or my feeling that cla feels not so good in sharp cornering at Karak highway..that time I've been chase by old persona lol.. On straight line it can't chase me but on corners errrrr.. Scary.. That was my first time driving cla class actually so really don't expected this
So this is better?
Yeah. And Mazda 3 even better. But this is the most balanced in terms of size, price, handling, comfort etc
Wow thanks bobby for replying for old post hehe
I went test drive today (cos can't resist the look of this new Civic) but somehow disappointed as I find the seating is very low, feel like sitting in a Go Kart racing car, this has greatly reduced the visibility of road conditions. The rear window is also small (i am not used to using reverse camera yet) and the side mirrors just completely block my sight. I am 5ft 5', maybe it's just not a car for woman or it is just me that can't fit in it? Nevertheless, I am still considering this car because it is just toooo handsome!
MOVIES AND SONGS adjust your seats they can go up
loll. a hook for teh tarik/ais.
The malaysian version got rear aircon vents?
+lbvnrw yes it does, is there a country where the civic doesn't have rear aircon vents?
cool video dude. thanks
How is the fuel consumption bobby??
Is it fuel efficient
its dark already
This car looks really awesome. Sporty look. I like the new accord as well. Looks fantastic too. Should i go for accord 2.0 or this 1.5 tcp?
So your heart says Civic but your brain is fucking with you by whispering that 'the more atas car is only a few thousand ringgit away' right? Trust me on this, every single decision we ever regretted comes from the brain. Go with the heart bro.
haha.. thats exactly whats happening to me right now.. Confused! Now they are having discount for the accord. Less by 10k. That is why my brain is asking me to go for accord. haha.. thx for the tip, I'll think abt it. :D
Hi Bobby, i booked the car already. chose the white color. Thx for the great review. :D
+Iwadh Rashid wow! Congratulations! Post your car and tag us #evomalaysia! :)
