Honda creates World’s ‘Silveriest’ Civic to celebrate 25 years of its Pioneering Hybrid Technology

Honda has revealed a one-of-a-kind Civic e:HEV sprayed in the world’s most silver paint to celebrate 25 years since the brand launched Europe’s first ever hybrid model – the Insight – in September 1999.

To celebrate its hybrid silver jubilee, Honda painted the Civic in a specially made batch of unique silver paint created by renowned artist and colour champion, Stuart Semple.

Inventor of the world’s Silveriest Silver, alongside the Pinkest Pink, Goldest Gold and Blackest Black, he supplied the paint for the one-off anniversary edition through his studio, Culture Hustle.

With a passion for working with only the best materials, Stuart creates his paint using 64% real silver flakes and pigments blended in an acrylic suspension.

The paint can be smoothly applied to all surfaces and gives the appearance of solid gold or silver metals, enabling artists to create work that is a real representation of these colours.

Once the paint had been mixed, it was handed to the custom fabrication specialists at The Syrup Room in Bournemouth UK, to apply to the Civic.

Over three days, its team of expert sprayers cleaned and prepared the car’s bodywork in carefully climate-controlled conditions before administering multiple layers of specialist protective and removable paint.

Finally, high precision spraying equipment was used to apply the final coats of Silveriest Silver to create the unique celebratory Civic.
