The upcoming 2022 Honda Civic, known as the FE-generation Civic, has been spotted in China. Like the leaked photos earlier, it appears to be in production form.

Powertrain options are likely to be carried-over units depending on region. The most prominent option globally would be the 1.5-litre turbocharged engine paired to a CVT. It makes 173 PS/220 Nm in the outgoing Honda Civic FC but it remains to be seen if Honda has made any updates to the powerplant.

In Malaysia, the all-new 2022 Honda Civic FE is not expected here until late-2021 or early-2022 despite being spotted in Thailand. This is due to the longer lead time required for local assembly.
