The Civic has been one among the longest running name plates round the world and now Honda has us preparing for its 11th generation model. the japanese carmaker revealed a prototype version of the sedan online and that we are a touch surprised at how grown up it’s .
Honda’s Civic has always had a cheerful outlook thereto , with its bubbly design complemented by some funky elements and lovely body styles (the Civic are often had as a hatchback or a sedan in international markets). The new Civic, however, looks quite mature and athletic. The prototype was revealed within the sedan format and it featured a really traditional three-box design. it’s almost like Honda has looked over to the Germans for a few design inspiration.
The Civic continues to be a looker, but its bubbly personality seems to possess been replaced by something meaner. Honda says that this design are going to be continued over to all or any the various versions of the Civic, namely the sedan, hatchback, sportier Si variants and therefore the performance-focused Type R
Honda has revealed only a sketch of the new Civic’s interior. It’s all black with a dashboard that features a symmetrical and minimalistic design and it’s thoroughly modern and upscale. The 9.0-inch touchscreen may be a floating element on top of the dashboard, and a replacement digital driver’s instrument cluster. If we had to select the highlight of the cabin, it might be the air vents tucked neatly inside the mesh pattern running across the dashboard, concealing them beautifully.
The engine and transmission options for the 11th generation Civic are kept covert for now, because it may be a MY2022 model and Honda could still be finalising how it’ll announce the choices . We however expect a hybrid powertrain to be made available with it, keep with the days .
As far as an India launch cares , the Civic enjoys a steadfast following in our country but Honda only manages to sell the sedan here in limited numbers. that’s why Honda has brought only two generations of the Civic to India. And a bit like last time, the japanese carmaker could prefer to skip this 11th generation Civic for the Indian market. But then, that might be so disappointing, won’t it?
