Observation shows that new models of Honda fuel tank at the bottom of the front seats and in rear axle suspension. Civic Tourer seat system can reproduce the Honda Jazz in the creation of a baggage compartment stand Monday when the user needs.
Expected, the engine for the new car expected to resemble hatchback, including the oil turbo 1.6-liter version. The Honda engineers said it will take maximum advantage of the flat floor of the car and through observation, Honda's new models relative advantage in moving terms of velocity and acceleration.
