During this process, the model was manufactured in several cities around the world, including Suzuka in Japan, East London in South Africa and Swindon in Great Britain. The car has had ten of its generations to date.

The Civic was developed and put into production to replace the N360 and N600 models in the Honda Motor Company line-up. The first generation differed significantly from its predecessors in terms of design, it was much larger, it also used other gearboxes and engines with much more power and displacement.

It is worth noting that the 6th generation Civic models produced for the Japanese, American and English markets differed greatly. At the moment, the latest, X generation of the Civic model was presented in 2015.
