Such hate before we even know anything.

Look at it this way:

The Euro City/Jazz 1.3L engine car gets 0-60 in 16 seconds. The same engine in our heavier civic hybrid gets 0-60 in under 13 seconds. Thats a 3 second difference just from the IMA motor.

Now add that IMA motor to the regular civic, shave off a couple hundred pounds and you have a pretty well performing car IMO.

**I don't know anything of course. Just going off the news we know thus far + facts about current Honda tech**
