The front fascia of the car features a new pair of headlamps. The ongoing model’s thick chrome grille seems to be pushed up a bit and the central air dam now looks quite big. The new-gen Honda Civic will retain its predecessor’s fastback-like design with a coupe-like roofline. Moreover, the bonnet of the car now looks longer. The rear fascia of the sedan is heavily camouflaged, but one can expect it to employ a new set of taillights along with a revised bumper. On the side, the car will sit on new multi-spoke alloy wheels, which will enhance the overall road presence of the sedan. The underpinnings and powertrain details of the new-gen Honda Civic are still under the wraps.
