For this Honda hardly expected. The new Civic Type R was spotted disembarking at the port of Vitória/ES and the images leaked on all social media showing, including, the colors that will be offered in the Brazilian market. The car had already been confirmed for this year but the landing indicates that the launch of the Type R is very close.
Based on the hatchback variant we never had in Brazil, the Civic Type R is completing 25 years of year/model launch. Following the offer of the car in the United States, it should have a 2.0 turbo engine with 330hp and 42kgfm of torque, about 20hp more than the old version, combined with a six-speed manual transmission. It may be that the version offered in Brazil is a little less powerful due to the calibration required here to comply with Proconve L7.
There are many new technologies in this generation of Civic such as the exhaust system designed to deliver a more exciting and sporty snoring. The engine turbine has a new working system with its internal blades capable of a faster working regime, improving performance.
Wider, a little longer and now with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires. There is Bose sound, 9-inch multimedia with wireless connection for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, in addition to its own telemetry and parameterization systems for races and starts, as expected from a sports model.
Honda does not confirm the launch of the model, which officially costs around US$ 45 thousand (R$ 225 thousand in converted values) in the United States, but it is not difficult to find the Type R for sale for around US$ 65 to US$ 70 thousand , around R$ 350 thousand in the dealer network. Considering that the new Civic e:HEV hybrid costs BRL 245,000, it is speculated that the Type R costs at least the amount charged by dealerships in the US, reaching up to BRL 400,000.
