taken a worthy place on the Honda stand at 

the British International Motor Show in London. The creators of the conceptual open car headed by Andreas Sittel OSM tried to make an attractive and memorable. Machine line to obtain a flat and dynamic, with a fair amount of aggression - in the style of modern hatchback Civic. The parallels with the series hatchback can be carried out in the interior: two-tier instrument panel with a spectacular illumination, three-

spoke multifunction sports steering wheel, creating a sense of being in the cockpit of a spaceship! Dashboard, door cards and seats trimmed with a special blue leather with a glossy effect and accents of white leather. On top of the center console are compact joystick sequential transmission, the transmission of 

which you can also change the buttons on the steering wheel. Technical data are not reported.
