With a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter VTEC engine that delivers 315 horsepower and 310 pound-feet or torque, the Civic Type R is not only more responsive, but also boasts a higher power-weight ratio.
On the Inside
The interior of the Civic Type R takes design to a whole new level. First, Honda outfitted the hot hatch with seats meant to grip drivers in high-G cornering. In addition to function, the new seats feature an attractive red suede-like upholstery. Next, the automaker got rid of the previous gauge cluster for a simplified digital display with a graphic rev counter and rev indicator lighting.
