Honda Civic 8th Gen

2005 – 2012

The eighth-generation Honda Civic, produced by Honda from 2005 to 2012, marked a significant evolution in the compact car segment. It replaced the seventh-generation Civic and offered consumers four distinct body styles: sedan, coupe, and both three-door and five-door hatchbacks. Notably, the sedan variant featured two different styling options tailored for various global markets, such as the Acura CSX in Canada and the Ciimo 1.8 in China from 2012 to 2016. For the European market, the Civic lineup included hatchback versions that were manufactured exclusively in Swindon, United Kingdom. These European-spec models boasted unique architecture, body design, and a more compact footprint compared to their counterparts. A standout addition to the eighth-generation Civic lineup was the Type R performance model introduced in 2007. This high-performance variant was offered in both sedan and three-door hatchback body styles, with the sedan version predominantly available in Japan and select Asian markets.
