Honda Unveils Aggressive Styling and Advanced Tech in the 2025 Civic Si
Honda is set to ignite the summer with the release of the 2025 Civic Si, boasting a bolder design, enhanced performance features, and cutting-edge technology. This latest iteration of the Civic Si promises to be the most exhilarating yet, appealing to young driving enthusiasts with its affordable high-performance offerings.
A Bold New Look
The 2025 Civic Si features a striking new front fascia and grille, revised taillights, and redesigned V-spoke 18-inch alloy wheels finished in matte black. The aggressive styling is complemented by standard LED headlights and taillights, along with sporty gloss black trim on the exterior mirrors and window surrounds. For the first time, the Civic Si is available in the popular Urban Gray Pearl color.
Driver-Centric Technology
Inside, the Civic Si is packed with intuitive technology aimed at enhancing driver engagement. The sport sedan now includes a 10.2-inch full-digital instrument display, Google built-in, and new front USB-C ports as standard. The new digital instrument display features a turbocharger boost gauge, G-force gauge, and a shift light indicator for performance driving.
Unmatched Driving Dynamics
The turbocharged Civic Si is renowned for its lively handling and fun-to-drive feel, further improved in this refresh with enhanced body structure and suspension. The Si’s suspension dampers have been retuned to match the increased body stiffness, providing an even more exhilarating driving experience. For maximum performance, sticky summer tires are available as a factory option.
Exclusive Manual Transmission
Honda continues to cater to driving purists by offering the 2025 Civic Si exclusively with a six-speed manual transmission. This precise short-throw transmission is paired with a light single-mass flywheel, delivering snappy throttle response from the high-torque VTEC 1.5-liter Turbo engine. The engine’s 200 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque are routed to the front wheels through a standard helical limited-slip differential, ensuring maximum traction during acceleration.
Enhanced Comfort and Safety
The Civic Si now comes with heated front seats, built-in head restraints, and body-stabilizing sport seats with prominent shoulder and lower thigh side supports. The 3-level front seat heater buttons are conveniently positioned alongside high-quality knurled knobs for the climate control system.
The Honda Sensing suite of safety and driver-assistive technologies is standard on all Civic models, with enhancements for the 2025 Civic Si. This includes improved system visibility for motorcycles and bicycles, smoother functions for Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS), and a blind spot information system with Rear Cross Traffic Alert.
A Legacy of Performance
The 2025 Civic Si continues Honda’s legacy as America’s top brand for manual transmission sales, with the Civic leading as the best-selling manual transmission vehicle. Since its introduction in 1986, the Civic Si has been a performance icon in the sport compact segment. Over the years, more than 12 million Civics have been sold in America, making it one of the top three best-selling passenger cars in the country.
Availability and Pricing
The 2025 Honda Civic Si will be available starting in early August with a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $29,950/INR 25 lakh (excluding $1,095 destination charge). Optional high-performance summer tires that enhance grip and handling are available for an additional $300.
Manufactured in North America
The Honda Civic Si has been built in North America for nearly two decades, with the 2025 model continuing this tradition. The performance sedan is produced at Honda’s auto plant in Alliston, Ontario, Canada, and its turbocharged engine is made at the Honda engine plant in Anna, Ohio.
As Honda gears up to release the 2025 Civic Si, enthusiasts can look forward to a summer filled with thrilling drives, thanks to the car’s aggressive styling, advanced technology, and unmatched performance dynamics.
