We've just had our first taste of the new Honda Civic Type R: Would it be your hot hatch of choice?
Under the bonnet, the latest Type R uses the same 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine as the old model, but in a guise that's been tweaked to deliver more power and performance. For example, there’s a new turbocharger that’s said to respond more quickly.
We’ve had the chance to have a passenger ride in the new model around the Tazio Nuvolari circuit in Italy, and it’s evident that the upgrades have had a significant impact. In fact, aerodynamics have played a key role in the design of the new Type R, yet overall it looks a lot less aggressive than the previous model, featuring cleaner lines and retaining only those elements that are functional. The bonnet vent, for example, is designed to help improve airflow and cooling for the engine.
