Recently named the most reliable fleet car in this year’s FN50 survey, the Honda Civic has been at the centre of an exciting year of growth for Honda in the corporate sector. The model’s low whole-life costs, impressive depreciation value, competitive finance offers and low running costs have been praised by experts throughout 2018 and contributed to an increase in sales figures, particularly for the Honda Civic 1.6 i-DTEC diesel variant.

A highly economic and reliable vehicle for the fleet market, the Honda Civic diesel can claim best-in-class residual values, with CAP estimating that the Civic will hold up to 38%* of its value after 36 months and 60,000 miles. As the first Honda model to go through the new Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP), the Civic diesel also brings class-leading emissions to the modern fleet operative. The vehicle’s CO2 emissions are unrivalled at just at 93g/km**. This figure represents a 1g/km drop compared to the previous 1.6 i-DTEC engine, which was tested under NEDC. Furthermore, with a BIK rate of just 20%, the Civic Diesel has also helped to spearhead Honda’s growth within the user-chooser market,

Speaking of a record-breaking year for the Honda Civic in the corporate sector, Marc Samuel, fleet sales operations manager at Honda UK, said: “There’s no question that the Honda Civic is an all-round fantastic option for the fleet market, at every level of fleet management. Not only does it offer a sporty, adaptable drive, but it is a proven, practical and reliable choice. We’re looking forward to building on the success of the Honda Civic throughout 2019.”
