The Type R is a vehicle that not only teaches the driver to enjoy driving but is also incredibly quick.
The history of the Type R is the outcome of how we, as developers, think and consider what the thrill of driving is.
Similar to the previous generation, the 2.0L VTEC TURBO engine powers the new Civic Type R. The output is different since it has gone from 310 PS to 320 PS. The Type R achieves an exceptional acceleration from normal revs to top speed with a lower ratio gearbox. The flywheel is lighter to improve driving enjoyment, and in order to perfect engine response management, we carried out extensive testing in Germany.
Each Type R was not only quick, but it also taught the driver to enjoy interacting with the vehicle. To increase this thrill even further, every component of the new Civic Type Rs engine performance has been examined.
Engineer Hayao Matsutani worked on improving the acceleration and drivability of the Honda Civic Type Rs. He works in the division in charge of managing vehicle performance.
Whether pressing down or letting up, the drive force of every Type R has responded instantly to the accelerator. This performance is what makes driving enjoyable and is what we engineers work to produce.
Since the last Type R, we have used the 2.0L VTEC TURBO engine, which has a torque profile that is significantly superior to those of naturally aspirated engines. The issue with turbo engines is the lag in supercharging when reaching this torque. When quick accelerator pedal work is required, turbo lag causes a lag in drive and causes the car to travel in an unexpected direction.
The Civic Type R is a V6.
Its replacement, oddly enough, is the Civic Type R’s 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine, which is rated at 306 horsepower in that vehicle.
The legendary Accord from Honda’s 10th generation won’t have a V6 engine option when it goes on sale in 2018.
The Honda Civic Type R is quick.
