Finally, at the Geneva Motor Show, Honda revealed its Civic Type R Concept model. This model has been described by the design team as a 'racing car for the road' rather than a high performance version of a road car. Prototype testing of the car was done at the famous Nürburgring Nordschleife in Germany.
The shape and angle of the stand-out rear spoiler, for example, has been designed to provide additional downforce, as a direct response to information gained through track testing. Additionally, the upper and lower front grilles have been enlarged and air outlets on the bonnet provide cooling for the high-output engine.
The front and rear fenders have been widened to accommodate 20-inch tyres and air outlets are integrated to optimise airflow. When combined, these features deliver maximum cooling, greater grip and ultimately, optimum performance.
Honda, meanwhile, has confirmed that the forthcoming new Type R will be the first model in Europe to feature one of its brand new VTEC TURBO engines from the Earth Dreams Technology range. The two-litre, direct injection, four-cylinder turbo is expected to deliver output of at least 276bhp and will be Euro 6 compliant.
