📝 Manufacturer description (Japanese)

• [Contents] The first Honda Civic debuted in 1972, and the model is now in its 11th generation. Although today's Civic has grown larger, the original was a compact car designed as an upgrade from kei cars, measuring about 3.5 m in length and 1.5 m in width. What made the first-generation Civic famous around the world was its use of CVCC (Compound Vortex Controlled Combustion) technology to meet America's Muskie Act—the emissions regulation said to be the world's strictest at the time—ahead of the rest of the world, combining environmental performance with nimble handling. As a result, in Japan and especially in America, the Civic established an image as a clever, fun-to-drive car and became hugely popular, particularly among young people. This Hot Wheels model is based on the first-generation Civic, customized with its front bumper removed and replaced by a chin spoiler and fog lamps, and overfenders added to accommodate wide tires. Fine details such as the emblem, window trim, and front grille of the RS—a sport grade sold exclusively in Japan—are faithfully recreated with detailed printing.
