Launched the new "CIVIC", the 11th generation, which aims to make everyone who rides feel refreshed with a sense of unity with the car.
The CIVIC is Honda's compact model, which was born in 1972, and is a global car that has sold a total of 27 million units worldwide. For the 11th generation new model, a sedan prototype was first announced in North America in November 2020, and then the hatchback was unveiled in Japan in June 2021 for the first time in the world. And on September 3rd, the release was decided.
The exterior of the new CIVIC has a low center of gravity and a relaxed coupe image with a side view that looks like a horizontal line drawn in a straight line from the front hood to the rear end. The headlights have continuity with the body side and express a familiar feeling of eyes in the fearlessness. The rear combination lamp adopts "C" line graphic that can be recognized as CIVIC at a glance even from a distance. By shining the top and bottom of the lid lamp, it is a sleek and wide way of shining.
The body size is 30 mm longer than the conventional model. Along with this, the distance between the front and rear seats has also been increased by 35 mm, improving the comfort of the rear seats.In addition, the luggage space has a capacity of 452 liters, which is the highest level in its class. Realized a functional package.
In the interior, the design is orthodox, but the four corners of the front windows are clearly shaped, and the placement of the wipers and their reflection on the windows are carefully calculated to make it easier to grasp the vehicle's sensation and create a cockpit that is easy to see and operate.In addition, a digital graphic meter that is both advanced and easy to see is adopted.The EX has a 10.2-inch digital graphic meter, and the LX has a 7-inch digital graphic meter.In EX's 10.2-inch digital graphic meter, the display of the audio system is on the left side of the meter, and the display of the driving system such as Honda SENSING and navigation is integrated on the right side.In addition, the center console is equipped with a 9-inch electrostatic touch panel display optimized for "Honda CONNECT".Moreover, the BOSE premium sound system equipped with 12 speakers is adopted as EX.
The power unit of the new CIVIC is only a 1.5-liter direct 4-direct injection turbo engine with agile response, which is a further refinement of Honda's original VTEC TURBO engine, and the transmission is a CVT with a 7-speed mode and a 6-speed MT. For MT, the shift lever has a shorter stroke and higher rigidity to achieve a sporty and direct operation feeling. The fuel consumption is 16.3km / liter (WLTC mode).
The safe driving support system "Honda SENSING" is standard equipment on all types. We have adopted a front wide view camera that detects objects over a wide range and with high accuracy, and front and rear sonar sensors that detect non-metals such as glass and outer walls with high accuracy.It is equipped with CIVIC's first semi-automatic driving system "Traffic Jam Assist (traffic jam driving support function)". It assists the accelerator, brake, and steering operations to keep the driving lane of the own vehicle while maintaining the distance from the preceding vehicle between 0km / h and about 65km / h.The "Adaptive Driving Beam," which was first adopted by Honda vehicles, automatically controls the irradiation range according to the surrounding conditions when it detects a preceding vehicle or an oncoming vehicle during high beam irradiation. This is a convenient function that ensures high visibility while preventing vehicles and pedestrians in front from feeling dazzling.
It is a new CIVIC that I can't wait to release.
