Honda's New Civic gets March Show Debut

Honda will be showing off its new concept Civic at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2005. In its 8th generation, the new models are tipped to be equipped with a more powerful engine than the 7th generation models.

A 2.2-litre diesel version with the same engine as the Honda Accord, will also be available. Entry level models will probably have a 1.8-litre petrol engine, pushing the entry price up to around £11,500/12,000.
