Honda's latest teaser reveals Civic shape

Honda's new Civic hatchback, which is due to make its debut at the upcoming Frankfurt show, has had its shape shown off in the latest teaser picture issued by the Japanese company.

The family hatchback appears to have a more staid and sensible silhouette than its funky predecessor, although it retains a similarly high rear-end window line to the old car, with the quest for improved aerodynamic efficiency likely to have played a large part in this.
