Honda redesigned the Civic<\/a> for 2022, and the sporty Civic Si<\/a> has been available for awhile. However, the model we’re most keen on is the high-performance Civic Type R<\/a>, which Honda revealed in July and is currently shipping out to dealerships across the country.<\/p>\n

The redesigned 2023 Civic Type R goes on sale this week and is priced from $43,990, including a $1,095 destination charge.<\/p>\n

For that sum buyers get a hot hatch with 315 hp and 310 lb-ft of torque generated from a 2.0-liter turbo-4, with drive going to the front wheels via 6-speed manual with a rev-match function.<\/p>\n

Underpinning the car is the same platform as the regular Civic. The platform is more rigid compared to the one it replaces, and this should aid the Civic Type R especially. It has 8% better torsional rigidity and 13% better bending rigidity, Honda claims. It also has a bigger footprint, with the Type R’s wheelbase growing by 1.4 inches over its predecessor, and the track width growing by up to 1.0 inch.<\/p>\n

The interior of the latest Civic family has also seen a major step up in technology and refinement, including the use of digital screens for both the instrument cluster and infotainment. In back, the Type R features two seats in the rear split by an armrest with integrated cupholders, instead of the regular three-seat bench.<\/p>\n

Front bucket seats, wireless smartphone charging, Bose audio, and some delicious red trim are all standard.<\/p>\n

Honda is still holding back on performance specs, but the automaker has confirmed the car managed to lap Japan’s Suzuka International Racing Course in a record time for front-wheel-drive cars<\/a>. The Civic Type R took to the N\u00fcrburgring<\/a>\u00a0recently, so a record time there could be forthcoming.<\/p>\n

Production is handled at Honda’s Yorii Plant in Japan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
