What is the Honda Black Label?
2 Answers
Honda Black Label is the domestic 11th-generation Honda Civic. Honda Civic exterior design: Compared to the 10th-generation Honda Civic's stylish boomerang-shaped taillights, the 11th-generation model features more understated sickle-shaped taillights, with only a single exhaust pipe outlet as decoration. Overall, the new Honda Civic's exterior design combines conservative changes with some aggressively accentuated details. Honda Civic powertrain: The domestic 11th-generation Honda Civic is equipped with a more powerful 1.5T turbocharged engine (240TURBO), delivering a maximum output of 182 horsepower, paired with a continuously variable transmission.
The term 'Honda Black Badge' is quite common, but I'd like to clarify that Honda doesn't officially have a Black Badge vehicle series. Their signature high-performance emblem is actually the Red Badge, as seen in models like the Civic Type R series - those are the true track beasts with a heritage dating back to the 1980s. Some people might confuse the Black Badge concept, possibly influenced by Acura, Honda's luxury brand which occasionally releases black edition trim packages, but these aren't independent Honda series. For car enthusiasts, Honda's most noteworthy Red Badge models like the Integra Type R represent pure performance and driving pleasure. Personally, I often drive a Civic Sport version - while not a Red Badge model, it offers great value and with blacked-out modifications can achieve a similar visual style. I recommend studying Honda's history to avoid misconceptions, making car knowledge both more interesting and practical.
