The 2023 Honda Civic Type R looks far more subtle and purposeful.
It's here. Honda has teased the 2023 Civic Type R for months, and an image of it leaked last week, but now, it's finally here.
Honda is only revealing the exterior and interior design for now. The brand simply states that the new CTR will use a more powerful version of the 2.0-liter turbo four-cylinder found in the previous model—where it made 306 hp and 295 lb-ft of torque—and an updated six-speed manual. The press release also reminds us that, setting a front-wheel drive production-car record.
Still, it's not impossible to glean mechanical details from the photos and from what we know about the current, 11th-gen Civic. The car rides on an updated version of the 10th-gen Civic platform, and it's a good one, likely providing a great basis for a Type R model. The wheel and tire setup is quite different than before, with the previous car's 245/30 Continental SportContact 6 tires and 20-inch wheels replaced by 265/30 Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires and 19-inch wheels.
