DESCRIPTION:
After the brief presentation of the first images of the tenth generation of the Honda Civic, whose manufacturing has already begun at the British plant in Swindon, the Japanese brand has finally published all the data and specifications of the new model, which officially debuts at the Next Paris Salon 2016.
This tenth generation will be a completely new model, an important qualitative leap since it is not only based on a new platform, but will also present important technological innovations. As we already knew, this new iteration of the Civic will be a global model, built in Great Britain for export to multiple markets, more than 70 countries, including the hatchback body for the North American market for the first time in years. The new appearance of the Civic corresponds to the design that advanced the Civic concept presented at the 2015 New York Motor Show, which completely breaks with the lines of the previous generation, at all levels.
Thanks to the new platform, the Civic is now 30mm wider and 130mm longer, as well as 20mm lower than its predecessor, which is obvious to the naked eye, since its new silhouette is more rounded and massive .
Although the forceful features that the 5-door Civic now adopts, with very marked wheel arches and strong folds marked on its body, makes it lose some of the fluidity that the lines of the previous generation possessed.
