As per the pic from Thailand's site, there are steering mounted controls and navigation screen. I guess the Indian version will be a torn down version of it.

cruise control is coming and the buttons on the right side of the wheel but no steering controls. so cheap of them. i guess ill do a DIY and add those controls by removing rear controls of the car. if all goes well i might just get it and also cheap honda discountinued the purple color so i am stuck. new cherry color due for tomorrows launch

Though I don't see the Misty Violet in the spec; the following text says it should be available. Not sure though.

"Honda civic will have an additional color option Polished Metal along with the existing colors available in the range." (Honda Car India : Press Releases)

I didn't except such a worst facelift from Honda. They have made the front bumper to look ugly. I don’t find any add-ons to interior except Aux jack and audio control in arm rest.Why did Honda removed the Audio control from steering wheel.

@sudan, IIRC, Civic never had audio controls on steering wheel. Rear arm rest had 2 rocker buttons for channel +/- and volume +/-. Now they have added another button called 'Mode' (mostly to select the source CD/Radio/USB).

dude you should see the new civic standing next the old one and you will notice the change in stance of the vehicle and it looks more macho!

the bumper is straight lift from Type R!
