Possible 8th Gen Hybrid Civic Pic



This might be the hybrid, it has "aerodynamically" shaped wheels similar to other honda hybrids. I hope this is not a repost, i havnt seen it yet on this forum.

of course, civic and accord are honda's bread and butter. however, i don't recall the 7thgen accord getting this much publicity either. so ur right about that, honda MUST have something up in their sleeves this time.

ehh looks ok for a hybrid, and its got to be 5 lug even though its not really clear, as mentioned before any of the other pics of the 8th gen, whether si, or sedan they are all 5 lugs






the first pic is the hawtness, prob because of the headlights and the angle

that's clearly a 4 lug vehicle. it doesnt matter about the other vics. i know the coupe and sedan are 5 lugs, hybrids always separate from them. if you noticed everything has to be "aerodynamically" designed regardless of the looks. i wonder why the fvck can't they make the wheels as good looking as the accord hybrid? the hybrid accords got some nice wheels, they don't get shitty looking wheels like those.

i still think its 5 lug
not cuz the rest of them have 5 lugs but i can see two more
the reason why the spacing looks like its 4 is cuz of the angle.

isn't the civic hybrid going to be a 1.X liter gasoline-electric motor? if that's the case, then why would they up the number of lugs? wouldn't that put a little more stress on the engine/drivetrain?

i am going to say that it will be 4 lug like the current hybrid. that picture looks believable, but i still have my doubts.
