  Engines

  This engine is supported by specially engineered parts. Air intake and exhaust manifolds have been tuned for high revolution engine output whilst throttle activation is via drive-by-wire. It is also fitted with 6-speed close ratio manual transmission gearbox with Limited Slip Differential (LSD) to perfectly match rev range and torque curve.

  Conquers corners

  A torgue-sensitive type helical Limited Slip Differential (LSD) system is used in the Civic Type R to limit wheel spin during hard cornering whilst distributing power evenly when you accelerate.

  Superb handling on the tracks and the streets

  Exclusively designed front damping rates are 1.25 times higher while the rear damping rates are 1.6 times higher than the previous Integra Type R. This gives the Civic Type R great handling in different conditions.

  High speed in sharp corners

  Fitted with 18-inch high performance Potenza RE070 tires, you’ll gracefully handle even the sharpest of corners at high speeds. Previously used in the Honda NSX-R, these tires are designed with the trademark Potenza tread pattern and advanced silica compound material throughout its 18-inches for a tighter, tougher grip.

  Outside
  Less-grooved, big-block tread pattern for increased tread rigidity at high cornering roads.

  Inside
  Highly grooved tread pattern for improved water evacuation and reduced hydroplaning.

Stopping power

Within the 18-inch Potenza tires lies a set of huge 17-inch disc brakes with 4-piston Brembo calipers, so stopping distance is shortened and fade resistance improved. This allows you to maintain high speed even during hard braking.

Aggressive inside and out

A stiffer and lightweight body compliments the powerful engine of the Civic Type R. Better stability is achieved with an extensive use of high tensile steel sheets that create a stronger structure. This makes it 50% more rigid and 11.6kg lighter than the Integra Type R.

  Designed for stability

  Whether you’re cruising on a straight road or attacking a corner, its aerodynamic body provides superior maneuverability and stability. The large rear spoiler completes the body’s aerodynamics by increasing downforce and decreasing rear lift. Meanwhile, the front bumper controls airflow to the rear diffuser.
