Honda has gathered a lot of heat and glances for its Civic; the compact and swift design of this sedan made it popular among users. But now this coupe is coming with new and fresh design in the year 2014. The company has made big promises regarding the new and innovative changes in the Honda Civic. The car has got the European look with headlights and grille squeezed in a narrow band giving it a sporty look. The dull look will be replaced by the refreshing design.
The new design will be offered with new styles and new characteristics like push button to start, Lane Watch technology which is unique by Honda and for better entertainment new multimedia system is given that offers capacitive touch technology.
The exteriors of the car are aggressive but it’s difficult to compare whether it’s better than the previous one. Honda keeps changing the styling elements of the cars without making any considerable changes. The Honda’s grille, front bumper, headlights and guards are different but not better; they are just fresher than the previous ones. If we look at the front end it does look like a European Civic hatchback however the rest of the features are totally different. Visually, this sedan is unchanged from the current model.
Coming to the inside, the big change offered by Civic is the introduction of new 7 inch Display Audio capacitive touchscreen in EX, EX-L and Si model’s audio system. Honda has given a statement that the screen provided inside is like an iPhone, with a pinch you can zoom and you can swipe screen from left to right.
However, there are loads of things that have been replaced by touch buttons. The entire multimedia system is touch oriented; the controls of audio system are replaced with touch-sensitive buttons. The knob for controlling volume has been replaced by a touch sensitive switch.
One more additional development in Honda’s 2014 Civic is its LaneWatch technology. Before this, the technology was available in Accord only; it’s a system that detects a blind spot with the help of camera on the right side mirror which gives a view of the blind spot on the screen whenever the driver gives the right hand signal. This technology is not introduced in all the models, but just EX and Si models.
When it comes to power, the Honda Civic is one of the best power delivering sedans. It has 1.8 litres of four cylinder engines which is mated with 5 speed auto to perform dynamically.
Overall, the new 2014 model is not totally different from the coming model the next year. The interiors are not that appealing but exteriors looks promising and the company has done a lot of work on it trying to keep it fresh and lively. The new Honda Civic will come up with more classy features and rich look. Honda has made no compromise with comfort as well. The car is so designed that it indicates the style and features it provides you are more than expected and are totally worth it.
