Honda launches class-leading Civic Tourer

HONDA will expand their Civic range with the introduction of the new Tourer.

Offering class-leading load space, emissions, equipment and economy, wrapped in a sleek and sporty package, Civic Tourer brings new levels of style to the estate car market. Arriving in Honda Dealerships nationwide from February 17, the Civic Tourer will be priced from e25,695.

While the Civic Tourer is one of the most compact and stylish cars in the class, it still offers a level of interior load space that is not just the biggest in the class, but one of the biggest of any estate car on the Irish Market.

‘Magic Seats’ increases the load space to a massive 1,668 litres.

?¬190. Fuel economy also benefits greatly from the

‘Earth Dreams Technology’ with Honda’s Idle Stop and Eco Assist systems working alongside the new 1.6 i-DTEC engine to produce class-leading fuel economy figures of 3.8 litres per 100km, the equivalent of 74.3mpg.

Standard equipment levels are the highest in the class, with the standard specification including Bluetooth, Climate control, 16

? Alloy wheels, Magic Seats, Premium audio system with 8 Speakers and DAB+, Electric front and rear windows, Remote audio controls, USB Connectivity and Daytime running lights. In a first for Honda, the Civic Tourer is also the first model to be offered with Honda’s Dynamic Safety Pack.

Using a series of cameras and radar technologies, the Dynamic Safety Pack is a suite of advanced active safety features which monitor around the car to help avoid all manner of possible accidents using features such as City-brake active system, Forward collision warning, Cross traffic monitor and Blind spot information.

Emmet Kavanagh, Marketing Manager at Universal Honda Ltd commented:
