UK publication Auto Express has reviewed a late pre production model of the 2017 Civic Hatch Sport.

http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/honda/civic/97625/new-honda-civic-hatchback-2016-review

Interesting talking points:

* Two stage Adaptive Dampers: Normal & Dynamic Modes
* 1.0 Litre Three Cylinder Turbo engines for Europe Market
* 1.6 Litre Diesel Engine for Europe
* Nine Speed torque converter auto for diesel engine (why can't this auto be in the 1.5 Turbo??)
* Honda Sensing standard on all models

In the article it states Swindon in the UK will produce all Civic Hatches worldwide. This is incorrect as Thailand will be producing ASEAN models. Does anyone know if Japan will be producing their own JDM Civics??

Premium features will be standard on Honda across the globe to the point where cars are equipped similarly to Acuras. We don't have those features because we have Acura... There's also other stuff like power fold mirrors that overseas market gets.

It's actually a large panel, covering a standard-sized sunroof... go figure
