Civic – the next generation
August 26, 2011
Honda’s new Civic – the ninth generation model – will deliver a quieter and more refined driving experience.
Experts have sharpened every detail of the design, build and aerodynamics and it has been put through its paces on all road surfaces. The engineers spent time testing in Europe to tune the new Civic to suit the varying road conditions. They also made good use of Honda’s anechoic (echo-free) chamber in in Swindon to fine-tune the cabin insulation.
The new model makes its debut at next month’s Frankfurt Motor Show.
The Civic was first launched in 1972 and has sold more than 20 million models worldwide – 650,000 in the UK.
