Priced from RM 166,500, the 2022 Honda Civic RS e:HEV is the most expensive locally-assembled (CKD) Civic variant in Malaysia.
Instead of the tried-and-tested turbocharged mill, the Civic RS e:HEV gets Honda’s trick two-motor i-MMD powertrain mated to a naturally-aspirated 2.0-litre direct-injection 4-cylinder petrol engine, allowing for a combined system output of 184 PS and 315 Nm. Claimed fuel consumption is a low 4-litre/100 km.
In addition to the new powertrain, the Civic RS e:HEV also gets unique wheels, Qi wireless charger, fully-digital instrument cluster, and Key Card.
