Raw power

Completely re-engineered with track-focused technology and advanced aerodynamics, the Civic Type R is a red-hot hatchback.

Designed from a dream

"I have always loved cars since I was a small child".

"Our vision for the Civic Type R was manoeuvrability that the driver can put their complete confidence in; and it would make the driver feel like they could keep driving it forever.” It was a dream that came true – in the shape of a Type R. Created with high levels of comfort, unrivalled interior space and track-inspired styling to match its top performance.
