The tenth-generation Honda Civic (FC/FK) is a compact car (C-segment) manufactured by Honda from 2015 until 2022, replacing the ninth-generation Civic. It was first released in November 2015 in the North American market, followed by its introduction in Europe and Asia-Pacific in 2016,{{Cite web|date=2016-09-16|title=This Is The European 2017 Honda Civic Hatchback|url=https://www.carscoops.com/2016/09/this-is-european-2017-honda-civic/|access-date=2021-07-02|website=Carscoops|language=en-US |last1=Halas |first1=John }} and in Japan in 2017.{{cite web|last=Radu|first=Mihnea|date=July 27, 2017|title=2017 Honda Civic Hatch and Sedan Launched in Japan|url=https://www.autoevolution.com/news/2017-honda-civic-hatch-and-sedan-launched-in-japan-119475.html|access-date=28 July 2017|website=Autoevolution.com}} This generation marked the unification of the Civic range, as Honda ceased making a dedicated version for the European market—a strategy employed since the seventh-generation Civic—in favour of a globally marketed model.{{Cite web|date=2016-09-07|title=Euro-Spec 2017 Honda Civic Hatch And Sedan, Jazz Spotlight To Premiere In Paris|url=https://www.carscoops.com/2016/09/euro-spec-2017-honda-civic-hatch-and/|access-date=2021-07-02|website=Carscoops|language=en-US |last1=Tsaousis |first1=Andreas }} As the result, three body styles were introduced with a near-identical design which are sedan, hatchback, and coupe.
A Type R version based on the hatchback model was released as a prototype model in September 2016, and has been sold from 2017 in several markets, including North America which received the Civic Type R model for the first time.{{Cite web|last=Resnick|first=Jim|date=2017-04-20|title=First-ever US Honda Civic Type R finally arrives with 306 horsepower|url=https://arstechnica.com/cars/2017/04/first-ever-us-honda-civic-type-r-finally-arrives-with-306-horsepower/|access-date=2021-07-02|website=Ars Technica|language=en-us}}{{Cite web|last=Duff|first=Mike|date=2016-09-29|title=Honda Civic Type R Prototype: It's Almost Here!|url=https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a15099910/honda-civic-type-r-prototype-photos-and-info-news|access-date=2021-07-02|website=Car and Driver|language=en-US}}

Overview
The tenth-generation Civic was designated as a global model, which improved development efficiency and gained cost savings. In turn, Honda allocated the cost savings to improve the performance and quality of the vehicle. During development, Honda targeted the model at the key U.S. market, resurrecting its once-discarded "lead-country" system, which calls for developing a model specifically for its main targeted market but selling it in other regions as well.{{Cite web|title=Honda to reintroduce Civic in Japan after six-year absence|url=https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Honda-to-reintroduce-Civic-in-Japan-after-six-year-absence|access-date=2021-07-03|website=Nikkei Asia|language=en-GB}}
Honda's resultant compact global platform for the tenth-generation Civic adopts a sleeker, more sporty fastback design.{{cite web |url=http://www.autonews.com/article/20150401/OEM03/150409976/honda-readies-epic-civic-with-american-pedigree |title=Honda Readies 'Epic' Civic with American Pedigree |last=Boudette |first=Neal E. |date=1 April 2015 |work=Automotive News |publisher=Crain Communications |access-date=12 September 2015}}
The tenth-generation Civic utilizes higher grade steel than the previous model, the unit body is {{convert|68|lb|kg|abbr=on}} lighter, while new body sealing techniques resulted in a 58 percent reduction in cabin air leaks. Rear disc brakes are also made standard. To minimize NVH, the Civic adds fluid-filled suspension bushings. A dual pinion steering system is introduced along with a thicker and more rigid {{convert|30|mm|in|abbr=on|order=flip}} diameter steering column for improved steering feel; additionally, the steering gear ratio is variable, with 2.2 turns lock-to-lock compared to 3.1 turns lock-to-lock from the previous model and a quicker 10.93:1 steering ratio.{{cite press release|title=2016 Honda Civic Sedan Press Kit - Chassis|date=18 October 2015|publisher=Honda News|url=http://hondanews.com/channels/civic-press-kit/releases/2016-honda-civic-sedan-press-kit-chassis|access-date=4 December 2016}}
The suspension is also completely redesigned, with a revamped MacPherson struts for the front suspension and a new multi-link rear setup mounted to an ultra-rigid rear subframe. The suspension is also lower, which combined with a lower floor and engine, allows the centre of gravity to be reduced by {{convert|0.6|in|mm|abbr=on}}. Other features aimed at improving the ride and handling include hydraulic compliance bushings, variable gear ratio steering, larger front and rear stabilizer bars, and brake-based torque vectoring. A single-tier instrument cluster also returns in this generation, replacing the previous “two-tier” design used in the last two generations.{{Cite web|title=2016 Honda Civic Sedan Revealed In Full, Priced From $19,475|url=https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1017218_2016-honda-civic-sedan-revealed-in-full-priced-from-19475|access-date=2021-07-02|website=Motor Authority|date=19 October 2015 |language=en}}

Production of the sedan began at Honda of Canada Manufacturing on 20 October 2015 and shortly later at Honda Manufacturing of Indiana began on October 27. Civic Hatchbacks were produced at Honda of the UK Manufacturing (HUM) until 28 July 2021 when the last car built at the plant, a Civic sedan for the US market, rolled off the production line. The plant closed on the 30th July 2021.
The 2.0-litre and 1.5-litre turbocharged engines used in North American Civic are manufactured in Anna, Ohio and Alliston, Ontario. The vehicles' automatic transmissions (CVTs) are sourced from Honda plants in Russells Point, Ohio and Celaya, Mexico.

The tenth-generation sedan was released in November 2015, the coupe in early 2016, and hatchback in 2017. All models have a 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine or 1.5-litre turbo petrol engines, except for the hatchback, which only comes with the 1.5-litre direct injected turbo engine. The 2.0-litre engine sedan model paired with the CVT has an EPA-estimated fuel economy of 31/40/34 mpg (city/highway/combined).{{cite web|title=Fuel Economy of 2017 Honda Vehicles|url=http://fueleconomy.gov/feg/bymake/Honda2017.shtml|access-date=2 August 2017|publisher=U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy with data provided by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)}} A 6-speed manual transmission or CVT is offered on all models, except for the Type R and Si models, which only come with the 6-speed manual transmission, and the Touring models, which only come with a CVT.
Higher-end trim levels of the 1.5-litre turbocharged and 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated engines only come with a CVT. The Sport Hatchback is a performance trim level that is available with either a CVT or 6-speed manual transmission. Si is a performance trim level that also only comes with the 6-speed manual, but it has a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine instead of the 2.0-litre turbocharged engine of the Type R, and is only offered as a sedan or coupe, not a hatchback. In 2019, an additional Sport trim for coupe and sedan was introduced between the LX and EX model featuring a gloss black grille and 18-inch wheels but uses the 2.0-litre engine, giving buyers an option on top of the standard EX model.{{cite web|title=Civic lineup|url=https://automobiles.honda.com/civic-sedan|publisher=Honda U.S}} In 2019, for the 2020 model year, Honda expanded the availability of Civic's optional 6-speed manual transmission to include the hatchback's top Sport Touring trim.{{Cite web|date=April 14, 2020|title=Honda Civic Price, Reviews, and Pictures|url=https://www.edmunds.com/honda/civic/|website=Edmunds.com}}
The Type R model was also released in 2017 with a hatchback body style, featuring an exclusive 2.0-litre turbocharged i-VTEC 4-cylinder petrol engine.
