Honda refreshed the seventh generation of the Civic in 2003. Like before, the four body versions didn't seem to belong in the same family.
The Civic's seventh-generation was available in four shapes: sedan, 3-door hatchback, 5-door hatchback, and coupe. There was no station-wagon on the list, and the 5-door version was the family version for it, more than the sedan.

Its grille was larger than the one on the sedan, and the raked windshield was completely different than the rest of its gang. Its tall greenhouse made the car looks closer to an MPV rather than a regular hatchback. A third side window was installed behind the C-pillar, like on a station-wagon. But it was just a big-sized hatchback. Like most of the facelifted versions, the 2003 Civic 5-door featured a different set of taillights from the non-facelifted version.
Inside, the Civic offered a black front fascia. It was made from plastic, and it looked bland, even though it was very functional.

There was a choice of three engines in the Civic 3-doors. While Honda manufactured the 1.4-liter and the 1.6-liter gasoline units, the 1.7-liter diesel unit was provided by Isuzu.
