2025 Mitsuoka M55 Concept

Mitsuoka Motors is a Japanese car company for building unique cars with unconventional styling, imitating the look of retro cars from the 50s and 60s. Their latest work is the M55 Concept.

The car was revealed late last year to celebrate the company’s 55th anniversary and is based on the Honda Civic with a design reminiscent of the Dodge Challenger. However, the company thought for a long time whether the car would go into production or not. Due to numerous positive reactions, it was decided that production could begin, and the biggest influence on the decision was the positive comments on the company’s website.

Mitsuoka Motors was founded in 1968 and since then has made many cars, some of them are Rock Star based on Mazda MX-5 and Buddy based on Toyota RAV4.

The M55 Concept will go on sale from 2025, and the company has warned that not everyone may have the opportunity to own this car, as each example will be hand-built.

2022 Honda Civic e: HEV for the European market

The Japanese car manufacturer has presented a new generation of Honda Civic e: HEV, which is coming to showrooms in the fall. With this, Honda has completed its range of electric vehicles for the European market.

Compared to its predecessors, the Civic first lost the diesel engine, and now in the 11th generation it is losing the classic petrol engine when it comes to Europe. The future rival of the Corolla, but also of European hopes such as the VW Golf and Peugeot 308, is offered exclusively in a hybrid edition.

The new Honda Civic e: HEV is powered by a 2.0-liter gasoline engine combined with two electric motors, which delivers a total of 184 hp (135 kW) and 232 lb-ft (315 Nm) of torque. Honda wants CO2 emissions reduced to less than 110 g / km.

The exterior of the car is similar to the American edition as the interior, while the wheelbase is 35 mm longer than the previous generation Civic. Inside, a 9-inch infotainment screen and 10.2-inch instrument panel, come with the best-equipped models.

For next year, Honda is planning two new SUV models, all-electric and hybrid. Honda says the all-electric model, as a blend of dynamics, technology and design, will be “a great option for families looking for their first electric car.”
