The all-new Civic Type R comes equipped with a specially tuned 2.0-liter normally aspirated engine matched to a 6-speed manual transmission. A lighter, more rigid body shell, specially tuned suspension, 18-inch tires and large 17-inch front disc brakes contribute to the Civic Type R’s ability to push the performance envelope. Newly developed aerodynamic devices further enhance high-speed performance while giving the wide and low form a more aggressive look. Front bucket seats, a unique instrument panel and other performance accessories contribute to an easier and more responsive drive.

Type R models are specially tuned to take full advantage of the potential of the base model and provide a racing car-like driving feel. First offered on the NSX in 1992, the Type R range was extended to the Integra in 1995, and the Civic in 1997. This latest all-new Civic Type R is the distillation of 15 years of technological progress and the latest expression of Honda’s “Challenging Sprit”.

PHOTOS! Here are pictures of the Honda SkyDeck Concept. The Honda Skydeck Concept was the talk of the Tokyo Motor show when it premiered this week. But don’t expect it to be the talk of a showroom, anytime soon.

Honda CR-Z for Singapore in 2012


The coupe category look set to be strengthened by fresh blood, albeit derived from the old guard, with the introduction of the Honda CR-Z concept at the Tokyo Motor Show last month.

As you should already know, the Honda concept is but a name as it'll go into production and be released into the Japanese market next February. North America will be next to receive it in fall and we, along with the rest of the world, will get it in 2012.

The Honda CR-Z is a step (and two alphabets) forward from the compact coupe Honda CR-X of the '80s.

The sleek bullet will use Honda's Integrated Motor Assist system, Honda's hybrid car technology already found in the Civic hybrid and the Insight.

For the first time in hybrid car technology, the Honda CR-Z will employ a six-speed manual transmission and powering it will e a 1.5-litre inline-4. The exact figures have yet to be released but as far as we can tell, it sounds like a hoot to drive.
