With the Civic Tourer Active Life Concept scheduled to debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show, Honda wants to show the world that style and space can work together.

Based on the production Civic Tourer estate, the Active Life Concept features a custom paint color and an accessorized interior designed for cycling fans. The study makes full use of its 1,668 liters of trunk space (with the seats down, up to roof lining) and its low loading height by incorporating a smart loading rack capable of transporting two bicycles, along with a retractable arm which can be extended from the rack.

Other accessories include a built in integrated air pump, a large light located on the tailgate, an extended shade area and a retractable bench making the Active Life Concept an ideal vehicle for cycling enthusiasts. A toolbox, bottle holder, water tank and a front wheel holder are also included – all integrated within the trunk side lining. Clever storage solutions also include a special aero shape roof box designed to accommodate essential cycling accessories such as shoes and helmets.

The Civic Tourer Active Life Concept features a custom blue paint finish with a lower gun metallic gradation and a silver roofline. The sporty look is also highlighted by the new 18-inch alloy wheels and the custom design rear bumper.

The design of the cabin is also customized: blue stitching can be found on the steering wheel and on the gear shift, while the roof lining is black. The front seats combine both suede and leather and feature a carbon tape with blue piping.
