Recently, overseas media exposed a set of patent drawings of a new generation of Honda Civic, including hatchback and sedan models. Although there is no official "real hammer", the next generation Civic is likely to look like this in two appearance specifications.
As can be seen from the picture, the whole front face design is very close to the Accord, and the front face is designed with horizontal headlights, which makes the shape flatter, and the mesh air intake grille is matched with thick decorative plates. The bumper is a three-stage design, the air inlet in the middle is a transverse multi-spoke grille, and the two sides are C-shaped decorative plates. Combined with the spy photos of the previously exposed test car, it can basically be "real hammer".
Although the front faces of hatchback and sedan models are basically the same, the configuration of headlights seems to be different. The hatchback model is a low-beam lens headlight, and the sedan model is a matrix full LED headlight. The current models also adopt a similar configuration distribution, the former is equipped with medium and low distribution and the latter is equipped with high distribution.
Hatchback type
Three-chamber model
Viewed from the side, the decorative strip protruding forward from the front face of the flat headlight is more like the Accord. The body lines are very simple, and the waistline extends from the front cover to the taillights. There is a chrome-plated strip on the upper edge of the window, which extends from the A-pillar to the rear of the car.
Among them, the rear of the hatchback version is more curved and smoother than the C-pillar slip back of the current model. The sedan version is closer to the "head-to-tail" traditional sedan shape, which is obviously different from the "coupe" shape of the current model. In addition, both cars are equipped with a "duckling tail" design.
In the rear part, the hatchback version is equipped with a penetrating taillight design, which is more exquisite than the current model, and the interior is still C-shaped lighting. The sedan version of the taillights has a feeling of deja vu, which is close to the shape of the new Lingpai taillights. Both cars seem to have hidden exhaust design.
At the same time, the patent map of the central control design of the new generation Civic was also exposed. Compared with the current models, the layout has changed to some extent, in which the screen or car machine is installed above the central control, and a flat screen similar to the Accord should be adopted. The air outlet of the air conditioner moves down and adopts a similar through design. Combined with the previous spy photos, it also basically verified Mango's YY.
As for power, traditional pure fuel vehicles will still appear, but on this basis, there should be e:HEV hybrid system and plug-in hybrid vehicles. In order to meet the market trend, the production version of the pure electric Civic is also very likely to appear.
It is worth mentioning that the British factory, which was originally mainly responsible for R&D and production of hatchback Civic, has been closed, and all resources have been transferred to North America, which means the next generation Civic Si models and types? The R model will be born in the North American factory. There are types? The R model will probably be equipped with a hybrid power system consisting of a 2.0T engine and a motor, and the comprehensive output power may be close to 400 HP.
