2014 Honda Civic hatchback launched with mechanical and cosmetic tweaks

The Honda officially launched the refreshed for the 2014 Honda Civic hatchback that we saw up close in Frankfurt Motor Show. The range of Honda Civic spiked in September, when he unveiled the Honda Civic Tourer in the same report, but Honda did not stop there. Most changes are small and the difference that will make in appearance or drivability of the Japanese hatchback will be similar but that does not mean it is nonexistent.

Let’s start from the mechanical. The most important distinction in this area is one that has been in the electric steering has changed slightly to provide better control at high speeds. Besides, both the front and rear shock absorbers acquired different settings for even better body control while the toe and camber of the rear suspension changed to improve handling. All these changes are the result of feedback he got from the Honda customers.

Appearance and particularly the exterior of the car, as the changes are subtle. The glass at the bottom of the rear window is different and the area around the signs at the door of the trunk and lower part of the rear bumper has acquired piano black finish. The same finish is applied to the front bumper was previously anthracite. Of course, this small facelift could be missing variegated tail lights or new designs for the alloy wheels and one that we are in this region, we must mention that the plastic around the domes became a little darker.

As for the interior, the most observant will see new white stitching on seats, steering wheel and the area near the knees while the image of the cabin has been enriched with various aluminum and piano black decorative. Finally, for England, will be available in Advanced Driving Assist System that we saw in Tourer, over 500 pounds.

Sales of the 2014 Honda Civic hatchback are scheduled to begin in January with a value that is not currently aware. Given the scope and magnitude of changes, the logic imposes corresponding-small-increase in price but will have to wait to be sure.
