2016 Honda Civic concept price, specs, mpg


This came as expected, but still somewhat soon. Honda decided to reveal the tenth generation of their Civic compact car, and what’s the better place than New York? 2016 Honda Civic concept looks really great, but don’t get your hopes high as production-ready model will still be slightly toned down, flair wise. The new Honda Civic 2016 concept is a step in right direction; and this is an understatement. When everything is considered, it is evident that Honda has some big plans for the U.S. market. Apart from new Civic and its Type R relative, they are redesigning and reintroducing plenty of other models, including ones under Acura badge.

Concept model really looks stunning, we have already mentioned that. Coming in blinding lime green, and with sporty black grille, the compact is really showcasing some style. Spoiler and light bridge at the rear most likely won’t make it to production, but yet again, they show the commitment on car’s part. Other big news is return of the hatchback to U.S. shores. This will make new Honda Civic 2016 a three-bodies selection car with sedan, coupe and hatchbacks available.

Even though interior wasn’t revealed, changes are imminent. Materials should remain similar, but cabin layout and colors are supposed to be different. 2016 Honda Civic concept most likely has the feature list of its predecessor. Nothing new should be expected in this department as the compact is supposed to offer a full infotainment system with touch screen and navigation (at least in top grades) and all available connectivity options (Bluetooth, USB, smartphone integration). All this will be bolstered with very rich safety feature list which includes a standard rearview camera, forward-collision warnings and lane-departure warnings. Yes, you read it right; all this will be standard from the get-go.
