Honda has unveiled its Civic Concept at the New York motor show as the brand prepares to launch its completely redesigned 10th generation Civic.
Honda says the design study will provide the styling direction for the next generation Civic models due to be launched in the U.S. this autumn.
The new line-up will include saloon, coupe and Si models, along with the return of the Civic five-door hatchback.
These will be followed by the launch of a next generation Type R to the U.S. market, as the performance flagship of the line-up. The 10th generation Civic will also be the first U.S. model to apply new VTEC Turbo engines from the company’s Earth Dreams Technology powertrain series.
Production of the five-door hatchback will take place at Honda’s UK manufacturing facility in Swindon, from where it will be exported to the States.
