After driving the updated FK8 Type R, we're not that sad about the LE selling out, since the standard car is so damn good In the UK alone, Honda managed to shift 21,004 examples for the EP3 Civic Type R over five years, and more than 13,000 FN2s in four years. These days, the hot hatch market isn’t quite so big. After three years on sale, just 2794 examples of the FK8 Type R have found their way to owners. Tells quite a bleak story of the shifting priorities of new car buyers, doesn’t it? This must mean there are thousands of people out there who, had they been in the market for a new car 15 or so years ago instead of now, might have gone for one of these. But for whatever reason - rising fuel prices, the explosion of fixed speed cameras or the worsening state of our roads - in the late 2020s that same kind of customer is generally looking at something else. That’s a shame, as they’re missing out. Really missing out. Sure, the crossover or whatever other anonymous box they end up with might be practical and cheap to run, but the FK8 is a belter of a hot hatch. And now, it’s even better. There are no huge changes, with Honda instead opting for a multitude of smaller tweaks. In line with the standard Civic, those nasty fake grille bits in the front bumper have been smoothed off. The underbody aero nearer the front of the car has been fettled, and the grille opening is a little bigger to aid cooling. You’ll find stiffer bushings in the suspension, and increased sampling rates for the sensors used by the adaptive damper system. Last but not least,, you now get two-piece brake discs. The 316bhp inline-four turbo under the bonnet hasn’t been altered, but not once did we quibble the unit’s effectiveness before. It’s a proper sledgehammer of an engine, with an explosive mid-range and a surprisingly good top end, willing you to tickle the hard rev limiter even though you don’t really need to. We were initially worried about the augmented engine noise, but it’s fairly subtle and reasonably natural sounding. It’s easy enough to turn it off if you’d prefer. When it comes to changing gear, the sensation is even better than before, with a shorter-feeling throw. I’m not sold on the reshaped knob, though, and it’s still made from that same material which will freeze your hand in winter and damn near scorch it in summer. The new Alcantara-clad steering wheel, on the other hand, gets a big thumbs up. The steering is even sweeter than before, with a wonderfully accurate feeling either side of the dead-ahead point. It’s one of the best electrically-assisted setups we’ve tried, and it goes nicely with the oh-so capable front end. It lets you get away with so much - however much you’ve messed up the corner, you need only floor it, and the mechanical limited-slip differential will pull the frontmost 245-section Continentals back into line. Many powerful front-wheel drive hot hatches can pull off this trick, but I don’t think any can do it as successfully as the Honda. To go with that barnacle-spec front end, a well-timed lift or mid-corner brake can tease the back end into moving ever-so-slightly. One element that did surprise and one that needs further investigation is the ride. This is something Honda really sorted between the FK2 and FK8 generations - the former was too firm in its default setting, and brutally harsh in +R. Damping improved in both modes when the FK8 arrived, with the more focused but still road-friendly ‘Sport’ sandwiched in between. Now, though, Sport seems to have gotten stiffer. On rougher sections of road, the rebound stroke gives off an uncomfortable, confidence-sapping pogoing sensation which was rarely felt in the older version. Until we’ve tried one in more familiar territory, we’ll leave a question mark over the ride. It’s a shame you still can’t adjust the suspension settings independently of the engine modes - in Comfort there’s a lot more compliance in the damping, and still barely a hint of body roll. But set thusly, the engine’s noticeably neutered, and the electronic throttle body takes an age to close. Overall, though, the facelifted Type R is a weapons-grade hot hatch triumph. There’s precious little room for improvement (aside from the infotainment system perhaps - it’s only marginally better than before), although Honda has had a damn good go by creating the Limited Edition. We’re yet to drive it on road, although a few laps on a small handling circuit quickly revealed the LE’s brilliance. It’s 47kg lighter than a regular FK8 (thanks largely to the ditching of the air conditioning compressor, although this does make it quite toasty inside), and it wears forged BBS wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s. It’s this latter element that makes the most tangible difference - the already sky-high traction levels of the FK8 are turned up even further, and that off-centre feeling of the steering becomes a good as the very best EPAS setups out there. Even those of Porsche. It might just be the best-driving hot hatch ever made - it’s a toss-up between this and the VW Golf GTI Clubsport S. The trouble is, though, as with the ultimate Golf GTI, the ultimate Civic Type R is only being made in limited numbers. Very limited numbers - just 100 are coming to Europe, and even though they cost £39,995 a pop, they’re all spoken for. I’m not sure this matters all that much. Every one of those LE owners will no doubt be over the moon with their purchase, but anyone who’s missed out still has the option of a regular FK8, which is the best kind of ‘settling’ there is. And in any case, once you’ve worn through those Continental Sport Contact 6s, you can always sling on a set of Cup 2s, then proceed to win all the track days. HomeHondaCivic Type R2023HondaSelect a year202320212020201920182017Overview The 2023 Honda Civic Type R looks more reserved than its overstylized predecessor, but that shouldn't keep it from being more exciting to drive. Honda has unveiled the latest generation of the high-performance hero, which moves to the more modern platform alongside the standard Civic and Civic Si. We still don't have official details on the the updated turbocharged four-cylinder engine but we expect that Honda has upped the ante in the power department. We're happy to report that the next Type R will keep its manual transmission. Drivers who can't do the three-pedal shuffle are out of luck, as for now the stick is the only transmission Honda has mentioned. What's New for 2023?Honda has revealed the new CTR's styling and some specs, but we're confident those specs will include a more powerful version of the current turbo four. We should find out more about the car closer to its on-sale date, which is expected to be in late 2022 or early and Which One to Buy Civic Type R$39,000 (est)Honda hasn't said how much the 2023 Civic Type R will cost, but we expect it'll start just under $40,000 when it goes on sale. However, we're told that won't be until sometime in Transmission, and PerformanceThe new Civic Type R will continue to be powered by a turbocharged four-cylinder, but it'll likely be more powerful than the outgoing generation that made 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. Honda has confirmed that the mightiest Civic will still have a standard manual transmission. The upcoming Type R won't have a new chassis, but rather an evolution of the one that underpinned the outgoing model. We believe that rules out the adoption of a control-arm front suspension—as seen on the Acura TLX. Instead, the front-drive-only Honda will likely continue to use its innovative dual-axis strut front suspension that does a terrific job of suppressing torque steer. While the next Civic Type R isn't as visually extreme, it still has a prominent rear wing and other aerodynamic addenda. Instead of 20-inch wheels like the previous model, the new CTR rolls on 19-inchers shod with summer rubber with more sidewall. Fuel Economy and Real-World MPGNeither the EPA nor Honda has said how fuel-efficient the 2023 Civic Type R will be in the city or on the highway. Once those estimates are announced and we have the chance to run one on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy route—part of our extensive testing regimen—we can evaluate its real-world mpg. For more information about the Civic Type R's fuel economy, visit the EPA's Comfort, and CargoAlthough the new Civic Type R has a more minimalist interior design than its predecessor—which should give it, as with the exterior, a more mature impression—it's not short of visual flair. Red seat upholstery and matching carpets provide the biggest pop of color. As with the regular Civic, the Type R features a digital gauge cluster and physical climate controls located above a center console with a large storage bin and two and ConnectivityHonda's latest infotainment system runs through a touchscreen mounted on top of the Type R's dashboard. We expect it to be packed with popular standard features such as wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as a subscription-based Wi-Fi hotspot and wireless smartphone charging. Safety and Driver-Assistance FeaturesAlthough Honda hasn't released a list of driver-assistance features for the Civic Type R, we expect the carwill continue to come with a host of features as standard. For more information about the Civic Type R's crash-test results, visit the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) websites. Key safety features are likely to include: Standard forward-collision warning and automated emergency braking Standard lane-departure warning and lane-keeping assist Standard adaptive cruise controlWarranty and Maintenance CoverageHonda provides average limited and powertrain warranties that don't include any complimentary maintenance.

Civic Type R Limited Edition został zaprezentowany w lutym, w mediolańskiej siedzibie głównej firmy JAS Motorsport, która od wielu lat współpracuje z Hondą i jest jej oficjalnym sportowym partnerem. Type R Limited Edition to najbardziej ekstremalne wcielenie hatchbacka, jedna z dwóch nowych wersji, które powiększą gamę Type R w tym roku. Wersja Limited Edition – na której bazuje Civic Type R TCR – została wyposażona w te same systemy aktywnego bezpieczeństwa i wspomagania kierowcy. Type R Limited Edition Safety Car wyróżnia się lakierem „Sunlight Yellow” – tym samym, który wzbogacił paletę lakierów seryjnego przednionapędowego hatchbacka Hondy. Ponadto 20-calowe, kute felgi aluminiowe BBS, opony Michelin Pilot Sport Cup-2, dwuczęściowe pływające tarcze hamulcowe i zmodyfikowane amortyzatory, a także „odciążone” wnętrze, które przyczyniło się do zmniejszenie masy wersji Limited Edition o 47 kg w porównaniu z Type R GT. Limited Edition napędzany jest znanym silnikiem VTEC Turbo z modelu Type R o mocy 320 KM oraz maksymalnym momencie obrotowym równym 400 Nm. Przyspieszenie od 0 do 100 km/h wynosi 5,7 sek. Civic Type R, w roli samochodu bezpieczeństwa, otrzyma malowanie podkreślające drapieżny charakter wersji seryjnej pojazdu. Będzie ono dziełem belgijskiego artysty Vanufa, który zaprojektował wiele oficjalnych malowań dla modeli Hondy, startujących w wyścigach samochodów turystycznych. Sezon serii wyścigów WTCR 2020 będzie składał się z sześciu rund na europejskich torach, a rozpocznie się w weekend 12-13 września na Salzburgringu w Austrii. Cztery egzemplarze Civica Type R TCR zostaną przygotowane przez dwie firmy – dwa przez Münnich Motorsport, kolejne dwa przez Münnich Motorsport. François Ribeiro, szef Eurosport Events, firmy promującej serię WTCR, powiedział: Honda ma bogatą historię w zawodach FIA World Touring Car, a jej wieloletnie zaangażowanie w tę kategorię wyścigów nie ma sobie równych, dlatego z przyjemnością witamy Hondę jako nowego oficjalnego partnera, którego modele Civic Type R Limited Edition będą jeździć jako samochody bezpieczeństwa zawodów WTCR - FIA World Touring Car Cup. – Kultowy samochód, jakim jest Civic Type R, w roli oficjalnego samochodu bezpieczeństwa - z jego doskonałymi ocenami w testach bezpieczeństwa, sportowymi, dynamicznymi właściwościami jezdnymi, a jednocześnie atrakcyjny cenowo – idealnie wpisuje się w filozofię WTCR./ns/ źródło: Honda Tagi: Honda, Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition, WTCR 2020, FIA World Touring Car Cup 2020, samochód bezpieczeństwa, safety car While the 2020 Civic Type R is already a terrific hot hatch, Honda gave it one last tweak before the 2022 redesign. It’s the 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition, and it’s already sold out in Canada. Naturally, given the Type R’s tunability, some may want to make a homebrewed version of the LE. However, that won’t really be possible. What’s the difference between the 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition and the ‘regular’ model? 2020 Honda Civic Type R rear | Matthew Skwarczek The 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition doesn’t make more power than the ‘normal’ car, Roadshow reports. Its turbocharged four-cylinder engine still makes 306 hp and 295 lb-ft. Plus, the LE has the same Brembo front brakes, limited-slip differential, and 6-speed manual as the regular Civic Type R. The two hot hatches even have the same adaptive suspension hardware. However, it’s at this point where the two cars start to split. 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition overhead front | Honda The 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition is 50 pounds lighter than the standard model, Car and Driver reports. That’s thanks to less sound insulation, no rear wiper, no rear heater ducts, and no rear cargo cover. The LE’s forged BBS wheels are the same size as the standard ones, but they’re each pounds lighter. The new tires, Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2s, are also lighter, and even grippier. Not all the Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition upgrades are mechanical, though. The LE’s steering and suspension software have also been retuned, Motor1 reports. Why can’t you recreate the Limited Edition using the standard 2021 Honda Civic Type R? At first glance, the 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition’s changes seem relatively simple to copy. 2020 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R | Ford RELATED: How the Acura Integra Started the Type R Legend Although BBS has filed for bankruptcy, the company is still making wheels. And the Michelin tires aren’t Type R-specific; the outgoing Shelby Mustang GT350R and several Porsche 911s use them, Car and Driver reports. And while removing sound-deadening can be an involved process, taking off parts is still taking off parts. RELATED: Watch the Latest Honda Civic Type R Face Its Predecessor However, there’s one thing regular Civic Type R owners can’t do, MotorTrend reports. Although removing unsprung weight is fairly straightforward, you can’t change the adaptive suspension and steering software to compensate. Honda did so in the LE, but it won’t be offering those tweaks to other CTR owners. You can get close to the LE’s mechanics, but it won’t be possible to 100% remake it with a regular Civic Type R. Is the LE worth the upcharge? The regular 2021 Honda Civic Type R starts at $37,495. Only 600 Limited Editions are headed to the US, and they retail for $43,995. However, Honda is raffling off the #1 car to benefit the Thurgood Marshall College Fund. But are the modifications worth the extra dough? RELATED: What Does ‘Quick Steering’ Really Mean? On the street, the differences are subtle, Motor1 reports. But on the track, it’s a different story. The reduced unsprung weight means the Civic Type R LE turns in better, the steering feels quicker, and accelerates harder, Autoblog reports. And speaking of steering, the LE’s steering development lead engineer used the original NSX Type R as a benchmark, Automobile reports. These differences add up to faster lap times. Enough so the 2021 Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition lapped the Suzuka circuit faster than the Ferrari F40 supercar. Unfortunately, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Honda hasn’t been able to lay down an official Nürburgring time with the LE, Car and Driver reports. But in all likelihood, it will be faster than the regular Type R, which holds a 7:43 time. RELATED: For Motor Trend, 2020 Honda Civic Type R vs. 2021 Toyota Supra Is an Easy Choice However, will those who miss out on the Honda Civic Type R LE be disappointed with the regular version? Unless you’re a dedicated racer, not really, Roadshow reports. The standard Civic Type R feels special on the street, and it’s “a downright magical circuit weapon,” Autoblog reports. But for future fans, the CTR LE will likely be a limited-edition model worth pursuing. Follow more updates from MotorBiscuit on our Facebook page. Honda offre une inédite série limitée à sa Civic Type R afin de contrer la Renault Mégane Trophy-R, opérant alors un vrai régime minceur ! Les amateurs d’automobile sportive connaissent bien la rivalité qui oppose Honda et Renault dans la course au record sur le Nürburgring. Des années déjà que les deux marques rivalisent d’ingéniosité pour offrir à leur Civic Type R et Mégane RS toutes les armes pour se battre et devenir la plus rapide de l’Enfer Vert. Pourtant, en avril dernier, c’est la Française, dans sa version Trophy-R qui s’était alors illustrée sur la piste, ridiculisant sa rivale japonaise avec un temps de 7’40’’100 minutes, le record de la catégorie. Forcément, on s’attendait à une revanche, et la voici donc, prenant la forme d’une inédite série spéciale produite à seulement 600 exemplaires à travers le monde, et ayant un seul but : mettre une déculottée à la Renault et redevenir la reine de la Nordschleife, pour de bon cette fois. Afin d’exprimer ses ambitions, cette nouvelle Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition adopte un style toujours plus exubérant, grâce à la nouvelle teinte exclusive Sunlight Yellow, tandis que nous découvrons un blason Civic en chrome foncé à l’arrière. Par ailleurs, cette variante se distingue également par son toit, ses rétroviseurs et sa prise d’air sur le capot peints en noir brillant. A l’intérieur, la sportive fait appel à des baquets et un volant en Alcantara rouges pour se distinguer, tandis que chaque modèle est équipé d’une plaque numérotée. Afin d’abaisser au maximum son poids, la Civic Type R fait disparaître ses systèmes d’infodivertissement et de climatisation. Les matériaux d’insonorisation ont également été réduits au maximum, permettant à l’ensemble de perdre 47 kg par rapport à la version standard. Petit détail que la marque prend plaisir à souligner afin de narguer gentiment Renault, cette Type R Limited Edition conserve sa banquette arrière. Une mécanique bien rodée Afin de réduire au maximum son poids, la nouvelle Honda Civic Type R Limited Edition se chausse de jantes BBS de 20 pouces en alliage forgé ainsi que de pneus Michelin Cup 2, conçus pour une tenue de route optimale sur circuit. Par ailleurs, la croqueuse de Françaises s’offre des amortisseurs modifiés, ainsi qu’une direction recalibrée afin d’accroître l’efficacité globale de la voiture. En revanche, le cœur de la compacte n’a pas été touché, celle-ci conservant donc son VTEC 2,0 litres turbocompressé développant quelque 320 chevaux pour 400 Nm de couple. Le 0 à 100 km/h demeure quant à lui inchangé, ne nécessitant alors que 5,7 secondes, mais c’est surtout dans les courbes que cette série spéciale devrait se distinguer de la version standard. Reste désormais à voir ce qu’elle donnera sur le Nürburgring… Quoi qu’il en soit, il faudra vous montrer réactifs si vous souhaitez en acquérir un exemplaire, puisque seulement une centaine seront disponibles dans toute l’Europe. Malheureusement, les prix n’ont pas encore été annoncés, alors que la Type R standard s’échange actuellement contre 43 160 €.
