Honda has announced that the new four door Civic will arrive at UK retailers next month, priced from £19,395 for the the entry-level SE petrol version, with a manual transmission.

Trim levels will mirror those of the hatchback, meaning buyers will be able to choose between SE, SR and EX versions.

The base SE features the Honda SENSING suite of safety systems, such as collision mitigation braking, forward collision warning, lane keep assist, lane departure warning, road departure mitigation, adaptive cruise control and traffic sign recognition.

Opt for the SR grade instead and you’ll get rain sensing auto wipers, dual climate control air conditioning, parking sensors, Honda CONNECT (Apple CarPlay and Android Auto), plus a rear parking camera. As for the EX trim, it adds leather seats, smart entry and start, LED headlights with washers, LED fog lights, wireless phone charging and heated rear seats.

“The arrival of the four door variant now completes the line-up for the Civic family in the UK,” stated Honda UK exec, Phil Webb. “With the hatchback and the four door now available, we have a strong Civic range whether it’s a corporate or retail customer looking for a car.”

Buyers interested in a personal contract purchase deal (PCP) can pay £259 per month on a three year, 10,000 mile contract on 5.9% APR for a 1.6 i-DTEC SR manual version.
