Honda Civic Next Generation EURO version to get a more powerful engine

The new 2012 Honda Civic will be offered with the cleaner, more economical and powerful diesel engine that provides lower running costs for owners but only for European markets. With improvements to Honda’s 2.2-litre i-DTEC engine and a low-drag body design, the new 2012 Civic emits 110 g/km of CO2 while delivering a powerful 150 PS and 350 Nm of torque.

This lower CO2 emission signals a drop of 29g/km over the outgoing model, allowing the customers to benefit from cheaper fuel bills. The enhanced engine also signals that customers can have both power and better economy, with the 2.2 diesel delivering a 10 PS boost over the old engine.

The advanced i-DTEC engine of Honda received a number of enhancements in the quest for lower emissions. With our low EURO 2M diesel quality here in Malaysia, this version will not be sold for some time.

To reduce circulation loss, the oil flow through the engine has been carefully managed. Also, to reduce friction, engine materials and components have been revised. A reduction in CO2 of five g/km was also obtained with the addition of Idle Stop (start/stop) technology. Extensive wind tunnel testing was carried out to enhance the vehicle’s aerodynamics, refine high speed stability and reduce drag, all of which aid in lowering emissions.
