Honda has recently revealed the prototype model of its all-new redesigned Civic to the world, set to go into production in 2021 for the 2022 model year. The Civic has been among America's best-selling cars, making this redesign very important to the brand.
What We Know So Far:
Honda has yet to delve into the nitty-gritty of their new model features, but they have confirmed several things that already confirm many hopes for what is to be the 11th generation of Civic.

HondaFour Models In The Lineup:
The 2022 Civic will take one of four forms depending on your preference. Honda has confirmed that the range will include the all-new Sedan, Hatchback, Si, and Type R variants. The prototype model recently revealed on the popular streaming platform, Twitch —- a big nod to Honda's significant presence in the world of gaming and esports —- was the sedan, shown in stunning Solar Flare Pearl paint.
Exterior Redesign:
While close observers will be able to detect hints of the 10th-generation Civic in the bodywork of the new one, it otherwise appears as a brand-new reimagined design language for the car's exterior. The continued elements include the low overall height and a low hip point designed to convey the "thin and light" design philosophy used for Civics in the past.

In other respects, some significant changes have also been made. For one, the overall look of the new Civic is significantly sportier and more dynamic. Moving the greenhouse further to the rear leaves an elongated hood, and thus a more prestigious profile. There are entirely new taillights, a low hood, and front fenders, and a satisfying mixture of sharp horizontal angles with sweeping vertical ones to create a sense of perpetual motion.
All-Digital With Honeycomb:
For the first time ever, the Honda Civic is getting an entirely digital driver instrument cluster and dash. The beautifully integrated cockpit design is built to minimize possible distractions and ensure maximum visibility for the driver. The central infotainment touchscreen will be a 9" HD display with the remaining controls placed underneath. Another distinctive interior feature is the honeycomb vent cover that spans the entire width of the dash. Rather than having an intricate network of individual vents, the look is more unified and minimalistic.

HondaStrengthened Hardware And Software:
The new Civic's body structure is built with a new and more advanced version of the Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) structure from Honda. It's more rigid and will provide more robust protection for both driver and passenger. What's more, the very latest suite of Honda Sensing will be on board, adding the most cutting-edge ADAS and road safety technology in support of the strengthened structure.
Made In The US:
One more great piece of news for fans of the Honda brand is that it will be made in the US and in Ontario, Canada. Of some 10.5 million Honda Civics produced to date in North America, about half were in the US. Honda has confirmed they will continue in that line by building the Civic Hatchback at the Greensburg plant in Indiana.

HondaStill Much To Learn About The 2022 Honda Civic:
There is a significant redesign coming in the 11th-generation Civic, and that it includes some significant departures from precedent. However, the fundamental things that have made the Civic so popular in the US will remain largely the same. All we have seen so far from Honda is a prototype model. With its record of prototype and production models being fairly close in comparison, we can expect that Honda is showing us something pretty near the real deal, but only time will tell.
