Despite being draped in copious amount of camouflage, social media sources claimed that we’re looking at the next-generation Honda Civic. The wheels look similar to the earlier unit, indicating that this could very well be the next-gen Civic. This time around, we also get a glimpse of the Civic’s rear-end.
