VIDEO: 2016 Honda Civic stars in new, fun animation

Honda has revealed a new video of its 10th-generation Honda Civic. Titled “The Dreamer,” the minute-long clip shows the new Civic in a fun, light-hearted animation of how the car was born directly from the car maker’s creative imagination.

Undisputedly, the new Civic features one of Honda’s edgiest exterior designs. Completely reworked from head to toe, Honda addresses its C-segmenter’s change as a “dynamic rejuvenation,” that will be “in a league of its own.”

It is also said that Honda was so adventurous with its 10th-gen Civic that it didn’t just benchmark the car against its segment rivals, but targeted “luxury compact class vehicles” as well. Dare we say the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class and Audi A4?

The latest Civic also pushes the boundaries with new and updated Earth Dreams powertrains. A base 158 hp/187 Nm naturally-aspirated 2.0 litre engine is available, but at the top of the range, a 1.5 litre turbocharged four-pot dishes out 174 hp and 220 Nm of torque. There’s also an updated CVT automatic transmission for the taking.

However you look at it, the 10th-gen Honda Civic is far from boring. This cool, funky and fun video captures just that, at the same time shows off the four-door Civic in several exterior styling kits and body colours.

    This will be a hit in Malaysia if 1.5 turbo is available.

      agreed, 1.5 turbo paired with CVT
      powerful yet fuel saving car.
      15km/l combined, more economical that SamLOO 1.5 Vios (12.5km/l) & Altis (13.5km/l)

      Mazda 3 might have a better driving dynamic, but this car is better in every other aspect.

    Please ignore Honda’s desperation.

    Head to Hyundai showroom and get an Elantra instead.

  • “Adventurous” isn’t the word you’re looking for, it’s ambitious, or possibly aggressive.

    adventurous for every hire purchase buyer, whether it would be introduced with a luxurious price tag soon?
