That was a great color as well I remember seeing them around as a teen - the one offered on the Fit and the one BMW has are darker, more eggplant purple. The fits color was called passionberry and the the bmw color is called thunder night.
I was excited for the smokey mauve Honda had on the...
I'd love to see a dark purple - my sister has a dark purple Fit and its a great color. I love the dark purple color BMW offers on the 2 series coupe as well.
I agree the blacked out looks better than the body color which frames the upper grille area and makes it look too small.
So far I've only spotted one new post-refresh civic on the road and it was a non-hybrid trim - really impatiently waiting for the full reviews and instrumented tests of the...
Pretty sure the ground clearance between the 10th and 11th gens is more or less identical since same platform and mostly carryover underpinnings. I've sat in the 11th gens and can confirm they feel just as pleasantly low riding as my 10th gen.
As for the second question, yes, that seems to be...
The 2020 Si didn't have the Integra in its crosshairs. They have to keep the Integra relevant so they'll hold off on adding at least a few things that the base and upper trim integras have standard. I think adding in the fully digital display makes a lot of sense, and maybe giving it back the...
I've had 3 civics with the CVT's, my current civic coupe CVT for almost 5 years now and have had zero issues driving it the way I enjoy driving. I'm obviously not flooring it from every stop light - and I probably wouldn't recommend brake launching, but getting the rpms up and stomping the gas...
The auto setting does everything. It will enable the recirculate once the interior air temp is optimal to do so. Same for the AC compressor - it will auto that on/off as needed (usually it's on in my 10th gen). Any manual adjustment of settings will disable the auto setting. Basically all you...
That could very well be - again just speculating - based on the accord and CRV base engine being the 1.5T I could see the civic being that way as well - also scaled up production of that engine means lower cost for it across the board. I could see them keeping the 2.0 n/a for the base engine as...
My guess is that they might keep the 1.5T as the only gas engine - since it's the more efficient engine. Sport, Sport Touring will get the hybrid setup. EX/EXL (and LX if they keep it) will get the 1.5T
Here's hoping it gets the full 204hp from the accord and crv and they don't detune it for...
Based on Honda's track record with MMCs and what we know:
- slightly revised front/rear facias
- some shuffling of trim features
- addition of the hybrid powertrain
- possibly a new color option (I could see them replacing Smokey Mauve for something else)
I'd like to see the new infotainment...
Probably worth noting that a manual with Honda's new hybrid setup isn't really possible. The engine only drives the wheels in certain instances (highway cruising and under harder acceleration). So much like an EV there isn't really any need to shift gears in the ICE engine because it mostly is...
Considering that Honda showed the silhouettes of what can be assumed to be the prelude and next gen NSX, no, it's definitely a coupe. If it were a 4-door it would have such a cramped rear seat it'd be useless anyway. Honda has stated that 2025 is their goal to bring their own in-house EV...
The new Prius is fairly tempting as good as it looks now. Granted its a bit more expensive than a civic, especially in upper trims. But with the new size and shape and powertrain update, it is going to land the Prius right in line with the coming Civic hybrid hatchback. I think it's a forgone...
Not trying to start an argument. My views are also my own as someone who has bought my hondas based on their performance compared to competition. Buyers like me are a huge reason forums like this and others exist. It's why honda's aftermarket is so strong. Performance minded buyers exist...
I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with. Whether it'll get a copy/paste of the Euro civic with the 181hp or if they'll see fit to give it the 204hp tune that the CRV and Accord have.
Honda has said they wanted the hybrids to be the performers of the trim lineups. They've stated...
I thought it was a bit odd that the new Accord got an LX trim at all after they dropped it for the civic and CR-V.
But even being able to advertise a lower point of entry has its own merits even if the take rates are relatively low and profit margins aren't ideal, they don't have to produce a...
I think its specifically older model year cars, and vehicles that don't have the push button start. My dad had no issues insuring his new Kona, even after his older Sonata was stolen.
If you have the sport model, with the black mirror caps, the color is Berlina Black.
My cousin recently had to replace his side view mirror on his sport when a crow decided to take it out.
