The 11th-generation Honda Civic made its US debut in April 2020. It received new styling inside and out and other improvements over the outgoing model. Europe will now get to enjoy the new Honda, but it'll have a different powertrain. Honda will launch the new Civic there as a hybrid later this year, naming the new model the Civic e:HEV.
The new Civic hybrid is only available as a hatch, and it will serve as the entry-level model in a market that will also get the new Civic Type R. Europe's Civic has a different powertrain than what's available in the US version, but the styling between the two is nearly identical. However, the new Civic does wear a few hybrid-specific touches.
