Body | Platform Flexibility

Optimized body construction for platform commonality

• Increased Civic family commonality

• Increased future model commonality

2 Door / 4 Door Shared Stampings Engine Room Strength: Stronger front side frame can be

used for heavier future models

Variable Wheelbase: Front floor can be easily extended for

longer wheelbase vehicles.

Variable Rear Overhang: Rear floor can be shortened or

extended for Civic family or future

vehicles.
