Its new trunk of 478 liters capacity is also the most useful in its class and complete the family feels. It is true that it has lost the system folding rear seats of the previous generation, but this decision, far from being a saving grouper, has its technical justification on the new platform on which the Civic is made and the search for the lowering of the center of gravity.
The new generation of Honda Civic hatchback is well built with a new platform that also serves as a basis for the next Accord and CR, among others. It is characterized by a revolutionary way of assembling sheet metal panels, the massive use of high strength steels that allow lower weight and a structure rear suspension (something not available in the past two generations of Civic) and that can offer a better adaptation in irregular asphalt with a better response to changing asphalts.

Fans of automatic transmissions may opt for a continuously variable CVT with a seven-step present to assimilate to a sequential change.
For added fun, the Civic Hatchback is equipped with cutting edge technology and has connectivity carplay and Android Auto. And what is fun without knowing that one will be safe? So Honda equipped the Civic with driving aids such as the steering wheel recognition system signals, active cruise control with braking function based on the joint action of the front camera and technology radar, and protection systems for pedestrians. a control most sophisticated traction, called AHA, it will influence driving offering a more natural control of driving
