Superior Aerodynamics for All-New Honda Civic Type R
- 2.0 liter direct injection VTEC TURBOENGINE and aerodynamic performance deliver class-best top speed of 270km/h (167mph)*
- UNIQUEvents, grilles, spoilers and skirts contribute to enhanced downforce and minimized drag
- All-new Honda Civic Type R in Championship White will make global debut at 2015 Geneva Motor Show
The all-new Honda Civic Type R – which will make its world premiere at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show – will feature a host of eye-catching design enhancements that have been heavily influenced by extensive aerodynamic development and testing, both on computer and in the wind tunnel. TheRESULT is a car with exceptional high speed stability and high levels of downforce.
The superior aerodynamic performance helps make the most of the Civic Type R’s 2.0 liter direct injection VTEC TURBO engine, enabling the car to achieve a top speed of 270km/h (167mph)*, unrivalled amongst its front wheel-drive competitors.
ANEW, almostCOMPLETELY flat underside aids airflow under the vehicle and combines with a rear diffuser to optimize downforce – effectively ‘sucking’ the car onto the road. A bespoke rear wing gives the car enhanced visual presence and delivers powerful additional downforce, thanks notably to the structure of its airfoil section.
