Being the most popular Honda in its lineup, the Civic Type R needs no introductions indeed. However, let’s discuss the hardware.
Based on the Civic, the high-performance Honda Civic Type R is exclusively manufactured in Swindo, UK but its engine is built in America. The car is driven by a turbocharged 2.0-liter, inline-four DOHC i-VTEC engine churning out 316 hp at 6,500 rpm and 400 Nm of peak torque at 2,500-4,500 rpm. The only transmission option is a 6-speed manual featuring an automatic rev matching system for smoother downshifts.

What’s more, the new five-door hatchback currently holds the records as the fastest production front-wheel-drive vehicle on the Nurburgring Nordschleife circuit within a neck-snapping seven minutes, 48.30 seconds.
HCPI says that the Honda goodness is limited to just 100 units and only available in two colors: Rallye Red and Championship White. Is P2.98 million is a worthy price of admission to possess one of the first Type R units to be sold in the Philippines?
