Honda's European mainstay is the Civic, followed by the Jazz and the CR-V. So when Honda started talking about the NSX coming to Frankfurt, we skipped past that supercar nonsense straight to the cool stuff.
As you've probably heard already, the new Civic Tourer is coming to the German venue. Honda isn't telling us anything important yet, but we know the boot will be at least 600 liters, probably more spacious than the Golf, Octavia and Ford estates.

The Civic Tourer will have the efficient 1.6-liter diesel engine which we've already seen, but also adaptive dampers to improve the handling characteristics of the car. The Golf also has adaptive dampers available, but Honda's system is going to be cheaper because it only has trick magneto dampers on the back where the car leans more.

Honda today have revealed that a refresh for both the interior and exterior of the regular Civic hatch is also coming to Frankfurt. We've heard that the Civic will also drop its 2.2-liter diesel engine which we also think is way too expensive to buy and tax.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
