With a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter VTEC® engine that delivers 315 horsepower and 310 pound-feet of torque, the Civic Type R is not only highly responsive, but also boasts an impressive power-weight ratio.
For better balance while braking into corners, the 6-speed manual transmission features rev-match control, which keeps engine and vehicle speeds in sync during downshifting. A Civic Type R-exclusive shift link mechanism makes shifting even smoother.
Accelerate through corners with maximum confidence, thanks to the unique dual-axis MacPherson strut front suspension that helps minimize torque steer and deliver precise steering response.
Side underbody spoilers, front fender outlets, and integrated rear fenders help guide airflow and maintain consistent air pressure around the wheels for optimal stability in and out of turns.
The track-tested rear spoiler and diffuser designs, including die-cast aluminum wing stays, help increase downforce and control air resistance.
Lightweight and highly rigid, the aluminum alloy wheels feature a reverse rim design to enhance stability at high speeds.
Heavily bolstered to help keep you in place during hard cornering, the enhanced sport front seats are also designed to give you better maneuverability for steering and shifting.
Sport pedals give you a firm foothold and add a bold, racing-inspired detail to the cockpit.

The Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) helps make highway driving easier when you’re cruising on the open road. While your hands are on the wheel, the system can help keep your vehicle centered in a detected lane by making subtle steering adjustments.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is an intelligent cruising system that adapts to the speed of vehicles detected ahead so you don’t have to. When a vehicle in front of you is traveling slower than your set speed, ACC slows your Honda automatically and then maintains a set following interval.
The Road Departure Mitigation System (RDM) is designed to help you stay on the road. If you cross over detected lane lines without signaling, RDM can provide necessary steering assistance to help you return to your lane or keep you from leaving the roadway entirely.
