Sucks how Honda had botched up the Civic brand-name in India which was such an iconic nameplate at one time! They didn't bring the 9th-gen here, while the 10th-gen was a shoddy effort with the wrong engine-gearbox combinations (no Petrol MT, no Diesel AT), the wrong pricing (more expensive than the Corolla & Elantra) and a premature demise.
I think the preference for Diesel in early 2010 ish started the demise of Civic. Around that time, Petrol prices were skyrocketing and Diesel was still subsidized. Hyundai & VW/Skoda had great Diesel's in their arsenal and Honda had no chance & had to pull off Petrol only Civil & Accord from the market.

2022 Honda Civic sedan spied ahead of official debut

Honda recently released a single official image of its upcoming 11th-generation Civic sedan. The Japanese company also announced that all details of the new sedan will be revealed on April 28, 2021.

Now, just a couple of days ahead of its debut, the 2022 Honda Civic has been spied. The new spy images reveal more exterior details of the upcoming sedan, including the design of the front grille, the sleek LED headlamps with the integrated LED DRLs and the turn indicators. The images also give a glimpse of the side profile, along with its newly-designed alloy wheels.

Inside, the new Civic is said to receive a major update over the current model. This includes a revamped dashboard layout. The new Civic is expected to feature a large touchscreen infotainment system, multifunction steering wheel, wireless charging, ventilated front seats and plenty others as well. Reports also suggest that customers will get multiple upholstery options to choose from.

The 11th-generation Honda Civic is said to get two petrol engine options. The lower trims will come with a 1.5-litre unit, while the higher variants will get a more powerful 2.0-litre engine. The transmission options will include both manual and automatic, based on the trim level.

This looks like the baby version of the Gen 1 Honda Accord, not that I'm complaining.

This is so much cleaner looking than the current one and its going back to the "standard" dimensions.

Will be a good addition to the dying D1 segment, if it arrives to Indian shores on time.

For once, I thought I was looking at a design as clean as the first gen VTEC. Clean, Understated, Practical and Elegant.
I guess, Honda design have come a full circle.

Inspired by the 2018 Dodge Charger?

I'm I the only one who finds the front inspired by the 2018 Dodge Charger? Not a bad thing though. Honda would do well to move away from their recent quirkiness a bit.

Re: 2022 Honda Civic revealed; full debut on April 28

The front fascia seems to be heavily inspired by the Accord & Legend models of the 90s. That's not a bad thing IMHO. As long as it over design looks wholesome, it could be a decent looking sedan. I wish if Honda would retain a conventional cockpit and not go overboard with a futuristic design like a 2 spoke steering wheel and a gazillion digital displays.

Re: 2022 Honda Civic revealed; full debut on April 28

It’s a shame they discontinued the Civic in India but it’s evident they analysed it’s segment’s weak potential. IMO this new-gen is going to age really well!

Good luck to Honda and I hope it’s success with this model enables them to reconsider it for the Indian market. 🤞🏻

The design looks clean. The question is whether Honda has any interest in launching this in India. I don't think they have. If at all they have any interest in India, they should focus on HRV. Civic's segment does not have any sizable volume worth investing in.

Re: 2022 Honda Civic revealed; full debut on April 28

With these kind of exterior and interior looks this is a dead on arrival car in india. Honda if your reading this skip this generation of civic in india. Come back with the next design.

This for sure like the last one will be a sales dud.

I would say bring back the 2010 civic with a major facelift and place it in the 10L range, it will sell like hot cakes.

Also, how would the ac vents' position/angle be changed? I don't see any manual points to move the fins/outlets.

They could be going for something similar to Tesla by integrating those controls in the touchscreen or maybe some joystick or knob on the dash.

Both interior and exterior designs look fabulous imo.

The front bumpers looks like the ones in Octavia VRS to me

I think the car looks awesome and has a well balanced stance. Not too quirky, not too conventional. Knowing Honda they will price it close to 30L and then wind up the model in 2 years
