Early 2009 or at least October is the best guess! Power is expected to come from the 98bhp, 98 Ib ft 1.3 litre i-VTEC engine with only a modest increase in weight. Hopefully, the Civic-style glassroof will be offered, as illustrated in the car in our page header. By early 2009, the current model will be almost eight years old, having first appeared in June 2001 - quite an achievement by Honda standards, seeing as the just-launched new Accord replaces a generation introduced just over five years ago in February 2003!
Compared with the distinctive Euro Civic, Honda have played it safe with it's best selling small car, combining a discreet evolution of the current model with subtle Civic and FR-V design clues.
