Honda Flemington Reports: The Civic Is in for Major Changes  

The Honda Civic is one of the best-selling vehicles of all time. All over the world, it’s synonymous with reliability and plain, old ability. After some critics panned the 2012 redesign, the folks at Honda decided to give the Civic its sporty edge. Honda Flemington wants to tell you all about it.

The What

Not too long ago, at the New York auto show, Honda unveiled the first look at a new, much sportier version of the old standby. After decades of proving itself, this new redesign will feature, among other changes, improved handling and Honda’s first VTEC turbo engine.

The Why

The Civic gained for Hona a lot of credibility early on. In fact, many argue that the Civic was the car that made Honda a real player in the American market. But in 2012, when Honda decided to overhaul one of its flagships in favor of economy and price, many writers for the automotive press were underwhelmed. The general feeling followed the Civic through the 2013, 2014, and 2015 model years, so Honda’s decided that now is the time to strike.

The Result

Later this year, you’ll start to see the new model in showrooms. The new engine will be only one remodel, though. The 2016 Civic will also feature a longer hood and wheelbase, 20-inch wheels, and LEDs for the headlamps. Beyond just the Civic, this marks Honda’s desire to get back into the game and mix it up with a sportier, better performing model in the compact market. It’s likely, though, that it also marks the beginning of a series of changes, redesigning some and nixing others altogether.
