With a groundbreaking new design the Civic is set to revolutionise the way we drive. It's a five door, with the dynamic, sporty New Civic. New Era.
look of a three door. It's extremely spacious and versatile inside without compromising on quality or comfort. But what makes the

new Civic really different is its radical approach to the driving experience. It's a car designed to give you an exhilarating driving

experience. Our aim is simple: we don't want you to just think this is a great car, we want you to feel it.


EXTERIOR DESIGN 4 5

When our designers were creating the new Civic they openly looked for inspiration throughout Europe. They wanted to build Inspired by you
a car that could take on the Autobahns of Germany as easily as it could the hairpins of Southern France. They wanted a car that

could survive in the harsh elements of Northern Europe and still look stylish when cruising along by the Mediterranean. So they

drew inspiration from Europe. Not just for style but for its varied cultures and way of life. The result is a truly unique car that has

something for everyone.

Race bred innovation and control

At Honda, we believe the driver should feel a

real connection with their car.

So we borrowed from our racing heritage to create

the unique dual zone dashboard. It puts all the

vital information in your peripheral vision, so you

need never take your eyes from the road.

All the main controls and switches are just a

touch away from around the steering wheel.

The dual link cockpit with its high quality finish

makes you feel at one with the car, whilst the unique

optional i-SHIFT (Automatic Manual Transmission)

allows you to choose your transmission option.

Select M (manual) mode for a sporty drive without

a clutch to slow changes down. Or A (automatic)

mode for a more relaxed but equally exhilarating

driving experience.

Optional i-SHIFT
allows you to choose
either automatic or manual
driving. There are paddle
shifts on the wheel for manual
changes, just like Formula 1.

More space from the same space

How do you give passengers great space inside without compromising a great shape outside?
Our designers came up with an innovative answer in the 'forward cabin' concept. By making the engine
bay as compact as possible and moving the fuel tank forward, cabin room is increased all round be it
leg room, head room or elbow room. Making the new Civic deceptively spacious.



Rear seats can be
folded flat to increase
boot space, or their
bases flipped up to accom-

or awkward cargo.

Hidden versatility

The new Civic challenges expectations in every way. You wouldn't think it could take a full size bicycle

directly from the kerbside. But it can. The doors open an almost full 90 degrees for easy access.

And the rear Magic Seats don't just fold flat to accommodate cargo; their bases also flip up like cinema

seats, allowing tall and awkward shapes to be stowed easily. This hidden versatility puts the new Civic

in a class of its own.



Enough room in the
first level for all your
luggage. Enough room
in the second level for
all your valuables.
All accessed in one sim-
ple movement.

Split level boot

The new Civic even takes innovation into the boot. Instead of one storage level, there are two.

The first level has class leading 415 litres of space. A hidden second level offers a further 70 litres, ideal for

storing wet items or valuables. This level can also be sunken to store taller objects with the tonneau cover

still in place.

1.4 engine with the economy of a small engine

You want an exhilarating car with innovation in it’s genes. One that delivers a great driving

experience. But if you also want ultimate economy, our much praised 1.4 i-DSI engine is the ulti-

mate choice. Its dual sequential ignition burns fuel sparingly, giving it the economy of a smaller

engine, whilst still producing more power and torque than most engines of its size. It's ideal for

both short trips through the city and long journeys on the motorway, and it does it while keeping

emissions to an absolute minimum.



An impressive performance

Honda imagination and innovation in engine

design has made it the cleanest and quietest

diesel in its class.

It's also quick and economical. It can reach

100kmph in just 8.6 seconds yet consumes the

least fuel per 100km compared to many of its

diesel rivals.

The best torque in its class also means it can out

accelerate the competition quickly and smoothly,

while emissions easily beat stringent European

requirements. With an engine lighter than any

comparable diesel, its torque to weight ratio is

unmatchable.

And that means superb handling, power, and per-

formance. It's typical Honda innovation.

Delivered with no compromise.

SAFETY 32 33

We built the car of our dreams. Then crashed it.

The new Civic wasn't just put through its paces

on Autobahns and mountain roads.

It underwent intensive safety testing at our specialist

Research and Development facility at Tochigi - the

largest and most sophisticated in the world. Here we

crashed model after model from every conceivable

angle and analysed all the data.

The result is an incredibly strong car with crumple

zones that move energy away from the cabin in

a collision.

But it isn't just drivers and passengers that need

protecting. Pedestrians do too. So we built POLAR II,

the world's first crash test dummy that mimics the

human body exactly in a crash. It allowed us to

identify potential points of contact and find ways

of lessening the impact.

At Honda, we developed POLAR II,
the world’s most advanced crash test
dummy. By replicating actions of the
human body in a crash it helped us
design pedestrian-friendly crumple
zones for the Civic.
