Features on the outside

We don’t need to tell you how utterly beautiful the new Civic looks. Honda has done a fantastic job in the design department. It feels younger and more modern. Also, thanks to its low-slung design, it also looks very sporty. The headlamps play a major role in the overall appearance of a car and Honda has nailed it with the Civic.

It offers full LED headlights that not only look fabulous but also perform brilliantly. They offer a good amount of visibility in the dark. Accompanying the headlamps are LED daytime running lights that further enhance the aesthetics of the car.

Depending on the variant you pick, you will get different set of alloy wheels. But the good thing is that all of the designs are very stylish. The base model comes with 16-inch wheels that look very sharp. The mid-variant then has what Honda calls Shark grey metallic alloy wheels.

The top-end RS model gets 18-inch RS design alloy wheels that are in a totally different league altogether. We think that the RS Turbo variant of the latest Honda Civic looks phenomenal with the subtle ‘RS’ changes that Honda has done. However, if you are not up for that, there are the Modulo Custom Performance Parts on offer. These accessories would give your Civic a distinct look.
