Hmmm....Motor Trend may think you're on to something.

You're spot on, there is no Civic Hybrid anymore, so this is it. And it looks like Honda wants to position this car between the Civic and Accord. Sounds like it is going to use the same drive train as the Clarity which has a large electric motor next to a 1.5 Liter Atkinson engine able to drive the wheels directly, or be just a generator. This will start in the mid level trims and have deluxe trim models available.
