The Honda Civic Tourer Active Life concept is to be unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show next week – an auto designed with cyclists in mind.
That’s not all, though, as Honda wanted to turn their Civic Tourer into a mobile bike workshop.

Taillights extend from the rear quarter panel into a truncated trunk lid.
There are changes made to the Honda Civic not just on the exterior part, but also on the interiors. Its designs, according to Forbes, is a fusion of current Civic, Honda’s upscale Acura line, with hints of Nissan’s Maxima at the rear haunches. The seats are really comfortable and flawless for long distance travel.
