Honda Australia is stepping up its game in Australia following a very dismal sales year in 2010 for the Honda Civic. Compared to the rest of the competition garnering 40 000+ sales, the Civic only captured around 10 000 yearly sales in 2010. Since the current hatch's introduction in Australia in 2006, the vehicle has fallen behind its rivals in Australia.

To rectify and attempt to boost sales, Honda Australia has brought over its Britain Civic hatches with revised technology, a stronger warranty and a revised front/interior changes. A 5 year / 140 000 km warranty is now standard on Civic Si models and they will receive a mesh grille. Bluetooth will be standard and leather upholstery will be an option. The Civic Si will start at $29 990 in 6-speed manual cloth trim and will be available in 4 colors with a 1.8L SOHC i-VTEC engine. Honda Civic hatches / Type-R models come from the UK, sedans coming from Thailand and hybrids coming from Japan. Honda charges an extra $475 in Australia for metallic paint.
