Default Civic Gen8 Hatchback Concept






"The next generation Civic Concept is shown in the form of a 5-door hatchback. The sculpted design implies a more sporty nature to Honda's best ever selling model. The 8th generation promises to deliver class exceeding performance as well as high fuel efficiency across all engines, which will take the model into "Premium" C-segment in Europe.

Honda believes that the next generation Civic will set new standards in the ever demanding C segment, particularly in the premium sector. Wider and lower than the current Civic, the next Civic will continue to be built in Honda's European manufacturing plant in Swindon, UK. The award winning i-CTDi engine will be part of the Civic line-up and will be assembled at the UK factory. The expected output for the Civic i-CTDi is expected to be a class leading 140 PS with a maximum torque of 340 Nm. In addition to the new i-CTDi engine, there will also be petrol engine variants.

The concept car on display shows the intention of moving the new Civic into a more sporty, emotional and fun to drive direction. The new engines will provide class exceeding performance in all areas and it is a firm belief that the next generation will set new standards for the C-segment.

Civic is the best selling model that Honda has had globally. Over 16 million Civics have been produced and sold around the world for the past 33 years, which accounts for 30% of total Honda sales. Civic has frequently been the carrier for Honda introducing new technology for mass consumption, and the next generation will be no exception. Currently, Civics are produced in 11 countries and sold in approximately 160 countries. "

Looks sweet as hell, reminiscent of a Peugeot or Citroen. I like the design a lot more than the coupe concept.

Now if only they bring this over as a Type-R...

This is the first time I've seen it.

I don't know about the styling... I like it.. can't say I love it. Maybe it'll grow on me more.

it's a better looking more real-life concept of what I've seen. I can't say that I like the car too much. It still looks like a minivan, and it's because of the way the front end is from a side view. I really like the front end though, looking straight at it. The worst part is the hatch. They need to redesign the hatch completely. It's Ok, and I probably like it better than the concept too. I just want to see the 3 door hatch.

Thats an understatement. 2001 was the last year of the decent looking Honda. With the exception of the RSX.

even the RSX isn't that great. I like the TSX, RL and TL, but the hondas are pretty gay.

Some one try to photoshop it better. Fix the rear and dump it.

Suicide doors? Uh, no bud, handles located just forward of the C-pillar. Sorry, but that thing opens like a regular door.
