SINCE Honda Cars Philippines Inc. (HCPI) first introduced the Civic in the Philippines in 1991, it started a cult following of Honda users, many of whom are still loyal to the brand after all these years.

The EG, the first-ever model Honda sold locally, was actually the fifth-generation Civic. In its heyday in the late 1990s, the demand for Civics was such that sales associates couldn't process purchases fast enough to cope with the number of orders. In its 32-year presence in the country, save for a few models, Honda has consistently come out with strong versions of its popular nameplate.
