Honda Civic...
One of the longest running dynasties in Japanese automotive manufacturing, the Honda Civic arrived in 1973 and the name is still going strong. In that time, the Civic has grown in size and ambition, as well as broadening to include coupe, hot hatch and hybrid models. As a barometer for the motoring world, few are more in tune than the Civic.
The Civic also helped the Triumph name soldier on into the 1980s with the Acclaim model that was based on the second generation of Honda's small hatch. Rover also based its 200 and 400 models on the Civic. To date, more than 20 million Civics of all generations have been sold, and it was the second-best selling car in America in 2020.
