August 11, 2013 - Honda has provided more information about
the new Civic Tourer ahead of its official unveiling at the Frankfurt Motor
Show in September 2013.
The new Civic Tourer was developed and designed in Europe,
allowing Honda’s European R&D team to lead the creative and technical
design process. The sleek and sophisticated profile of the Civic Tourer does
not compromise the car’s practicality. The Civic Tourer delivers exceptional
versatility and functionality with class leading interior space of 624L (trunk
volume with the rear seats up, measured up to the tonneau cover).
The Civic Tourer will feature either the 1.6 i-DTEC engine
from the Earth Dreams Technology series or the 1.8 i-VTEC engine in manual or
automatic transmission. A brand new
Adaptive Damper System (ADS) will help to enhance stability and comfort under
varying load and driving conditions.
The Civic Tourer will be built at Honda’s UK manufacturing
facility and will be launched in Europe from early 2014.
