While the pre-facelift Civic was available in 6 trims, the facelift is available in 8 configurations, and gets an addition to color palette including a new flashing yellow color. The Civic gets a series of practical functions to enhance the sense of value, bringing more rich and personalized choices to consumers.

The 2019 Civic facelift in China looks pretty much like the ones in USA and Thailand, but with minor differences. The upper part of front fascia wing is painted in black. The layout of the lower fascia has also changed; the vents are now integrated into a single unit rather than separated into three sections. Depending on the variant, the ‘wing’ on the grille as well as the garnish near the fog lamps is finished in either chrome or piano black.
