2.0-Litre Turbocharged VTEC® Engine

At the core of the Civic Type R is a heart-stopping, direct-injected 2.0-litre, 16 valve VTEC® turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces up to a jaw-dropping 315 horsepower* and up to 310 lb.-ft.* of torque.

Four Exhilarating Drive Modes

Staying in control is all about understanding and adapting to different driving scenarios. That’s why the Civic Type R features four driver-selectable modes: Individual, Comfort, Sport, and +R. Each mode adjusts settings such as steering and throttle response, the Adaptive Damper System (ADS), and transmission rev-matching.

Full Throttle Ahead

Put the throaty engine of the Type R in the palm of your hand with the short throw 6-speed manual transmission with rev-match control. Then, do what you will with the road.

Adaptive Damper System (ADS)

Whenever the mood strikes, simply use the ADS to adjust the damping force for a different driving feel.

Differentials That Make a Huge Difference

Built to conquer every curve, the helical Limited Slip Differential (LSD) of the Type R, along with its dual-axis independent strut front suspension, are engineered to help give you optimal control through turns.

Take to the Streets With Bold Style

Designed to cause a stir with styling that’s as striking as it is functional.

Aluminum Shift Knob & Sports Pedals

If you want to become one with your sports car, tactility is key. That’s why the Type R is equipped with an aluminum shift knob with suede shift boot and aluminum-trimmed sport pedals. Because a 6-speed manual transmission isn’t amazing if it doesn’t feel amazing, too.

A Sign of the Incredible Lap Times

To Soichiro Honda, racing was the pinnacle of automotive art. Hence the Type R emblem: an insignia denoting the pursuit of the type of car that could, and would, achieve the fastest ever FWD Nürburgring Nordschleife lap time.

Tech Designed to Help Keep You Safe

The Civic Type R has intuitive technologies designed to help keep you, and everyone around you, safer.

Honda Sensing®

Honda Sensing® Technologies*

  • Graphic display of a vehicle on an elevated highway with green sensors emitting from the vehile.
    Lane Keeping Assist System* (LKAS)

    The LKAS* is engineered to gently correct your steering if you begin to leave a detected lane without signalling, applying torque progressively to the steering to help guide you back to the centre of the lane.

  • Graphic illustration of a a vehicle with blue lights emenating from the front on a city street, detecting a potential collision.
    Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS®)*

    To help reduce the likelihood or severity of a frontal impact, CMBS®* is engineered to apply light brake pressure if you don’t respond to FCW* system alerts. If it still senses an imminent collision, CMBS®* is designed to brake forcefully.

  • Overhead image of blue CR-V on a city highway with blue graphic overlay demonstrating a vehicle drifting out of the lane on a highway.
    Road Departure Mitigation* (RDM) System

    The RDM system* is designed to help steer and even apply brake pressure if it detects your vehicle may leave the road.

  • A graphic image of a vehicle on a busy highway with a swath of blue light emenating from the front.
    Forward Collision Warning* (FCW) System

    The FCW* system is designed to detect the presence of vehicles in front of you and issue audible, visual, and tactile alerts if you’re approaching with too much speed. If you fail to respond, CMBS®* is triggered into operation.

  • Overhead image of blue CR-V on a city highway with blue graphic overlay demonstrating a vehicle drifting out of the lane on a highway.
    Lane Departure Warning (LDW) System*

    The LDW system* is designed to monitor vehicle lane position and issue visual and tactile alerts if your vehicle drifts into another detected lane without signalling.

  • A graphic image of a vehicle on a busy highway with a swath of blue light emenating from the front.
    Adaptive Cruise Control* (ACC) with Low-Speed Follow

    The ACC* with low-speed follow is designed to keep a constant speed and set following interval behind the vehicle detected directly ahead of yours.

  • Overhead illustration of a CR-V with blue lights emanating from the front.
    Traffic Sign Recognition* (TSR)

    Traffic Sign Recognition displays traffic sign information to assist the driver while the vehicle is moving forward. The camera is designed to recognize traffic signs and display their information on the Driver Information Interface.
