There have been various concept photos released for the 2017 Honda Civic, which was unveiled in Geneva earlier this year and is expected to debut early next year. Car enthusiasts and experts believe that the concept car would be quite close to the actual version the Japanese car manufacturer will eventually make available to the public.

The small changes may be in the interior and other tiny details to make the car look the part, but images seen definitely show that the car is very pleasing to the eye.

Fans are awaiting the release of the 2017 Honda Civic, not only because it's a hatchback version but also because it will be exported worldwide or go global, so to speak, once released.

Reports say that the upcoming car will be different from the current hatchback, which is restricted from the U.S. market. The 2017 Honda Civic, while it is being built in Honda's manufacturing plant in Swindon in the U.K., will also be coming to the U.S. upon its release.

Many people are excited with this release as they consider it one of the best Civic releases since the model's peak of popularity in the late '90s.

With many vehicles already taking different looks and adding technologies, this may be the best way for Honda to make their Civic model stand out from the crowd once again.

Even the car designers are showing their eagerness to please the public. Principal designer Diasuke Tsutamori told Auto Express that people should expect similar quality and look as to what is shown at the moment, which is very good news.

"This prototype is already on a very close level to mass production," Tsutamori said. "When you see the final car, you will probably think it's still the prototype."
