A gray Honda Civic without camouflage caught in the street of New York city.

The profile looks good for a budget 4-dr compact sedan, it looks like coupe. It is somewhat looks like Mazda MX-5.

It has prominent chrome grille just like 2016 Accord and some Acura models.

The result of these changes is, at least in our mind, arguably the best-looking Civic in decades. Honda has finally realized that just because a consumer only has $20,000 to $25,000 to spend on a compact car, it doesn't mean they don't care about aesthetics or style.

It's supposed to be a compact sedan.

The wheel may not looks right to some, but it can be replaced with aftermarket. The main thing is the overall styling isn't as bad as Toyota/Lexus, especially hideous grill of most new Toyota/Lexus.

One thing stand out is that Honda doesn't follow the trend of high belt-line and narrow windows of newer vehicles.

From this styling I think Honda will see increasing sell volume of the new Civic the next few years.

I don't like it either, I rather have a normal front grill like current Civic. All new Honda/Acura have the same styling grill, they should have a better design than this.

But, if I have to choose this Civic grill vs newer Toyota grill I would take this Civic grill any day.

Talking about front grill, I like Mercedes and BMW best. They are all classic also looks modern.

They sacrificed rear headroom for the hatchback look.


This is the rear end of the Crosstour. It looks much different than the new Civic, mainly because the rear of the Crosstour is fairly high while the Civic is much lower.

It's now the size of an older Accord. How soon will the Accord be as big as the current Lexus LS 460? The xB grew up and disappeared. Did we know that we needed a bigger car every couple of years?
 
Ugh....WOW is that UGLY!
So glad I purchased the 2015 Civic EX before this change! I love my new Civic!

I agree, it does look like the Crosstour from certain angles. I think he meant to say that it looks like a Crosstour from the rear quarter panel, to which I say..it does!
