Honda Europe has released photos of its version of the Civic before the car’s official debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show. To our eye, the rear with its full-width taillight looks great (if a little 1990s). Less so the front with that puzzling piece of gray plastic smack in the middle of the bumper. We won’t even hold our breath for a hatchback version to make its way to the Philippines. The all-new Civic will have its work cut out for it by the likes of the Ford
Focus and the Hyundai i30.
Here’s news from Honda:
Honda has released the first exclusive photos of the new Civic. The images show the new clean, dynamic and flowing exterior design and high quality interior.
The designers of the new Civic wanted to keep the sporty and advanced elements of the car’s character but tailor them to communicate the new model’s more dynamic feel. Sources of inspiration included a ‘blended wing body’ airplane in which the fuselage and wings blend into a single body for superior aerodynamic performance.
Nearly all of the body components on the new Civic have been redesigned with particular focus on ride and handling, reduced CO2 emissions, design and interior quality, while retaining the class-leading cabin, boot space and practicality.
Designed and developed specifically for the European market, the new Civic will be offered as a five-door hatchback.
