Civic Production is Underway
For the better part of this week we've been emailing with Honda trying to learn the engine and platform code, but they won't budge.
We're not exactly sure why Honda is being so protective over what many consider mundane information. Honda's official line on the 1.5T is “We do not publish that engine info.” Odd though, as they already let it be known that the 2.0 is a K20 and engineers have admitted the new 1.5L has its roots in the L15, so why the secrecy?
The platform code we find equally odd, Honda obviously has designations for them internally. What are they gaining by keeping the info secret?
Let us know what you think below...
