PROLIFIK-ONE

JDM Civic Sedans will be discontinued in Japan once they run out of their current inventory.  At least it’s good to know that they’re running strong here in the states.  They’re literally everywhere.

According to a report from Japan’s Nikkei.com, Honda will stop selling the Civic sedan in its home market as soon as existing inventories run out. As customers shift their focus towards MPVs and more compact vehicles, the popularity of the Civic has dwindled substantially in Japan – only 452 of the trusty Honda sedans were sold in the automaker’s domestic market during the month of October.

Honda is still committed to offering the Civic sedan in other markets, such as the United States and Europe, where sales numbers are substantially more robust. In fact, new versions of both the U.S.- and Euro-spec Civics are set to bow sometime next year. Honda will continue to manufacturer Civic sedas at its Suzuka plant for export purposes. It’s unclear whether Honda will continue to import the European-built Civic Type R Euro hatchback into Japan.
