New Civic SUV

thirtythirty

Trying to match that 'beauty' of a motor, the Qashqai.



I think it looks like a Volvo XC from the back, and Ford Kuga from the side, and a squashed Outlander from the front!
It'll be practical and affordable no doubt, I just don't know if the market needs another of these half-breeds.

Looks nice, I'd buy one (If I had the money!)

God, they've utterly ruined the Civic over the past 5/6 years...

Civic? New HR-V surely.

My thoughts exactly

My thoughts originally, but of late they've been getting renders right (albeit with details muddled). Could be an hr-v alright, but looks like a civic to me tbh

do not like the back end at all, I really like the new 2012 Civic but it also fall short in the hind quarters.

God no...the new one is lovely and is a nice refresher since the outgoing model

The first and second generation CRVs (and presumably the HRVs) were based on the Civic platform. So there has been a kinda Civic SUV since 97

I quite like the kinda spacecrafty look of the Civic hatch actually... not mad about this though, it's kinda like the lovechild of a Ford Kuga + civic hatch, or a Volvo SUV as previously mentioned

The as-yet-unnamed car will be based on a tweaked version of the new Civic’s platform, and go on sale next year. And our illustrations show how it’s likely to look.

But its absolutely horrid why try put a CR-Z front on an SUV, its just frugly, why dont they stick to there sleeker edger designs of their other people carriers

robbie_998

it has a rear wiper.


my civic doesnt have one !

colm_mcm

Hard to imagine that wiper actually being of any use

I'm fairly certain it looks worse than a Tida, seriously where have the designers in Honda gone to, I can't believe the company that puts out the Accord estate is launching this?

They're not launching that, it's just a sensationalist sketch by an auto express artist. All they had to go on is a description of it being an SUV and based on the civic.
