Factory Performance Driven by our relentless determination to keep improving, we not only created the most powerful Civic ever, but also the most agile. And with its 4-mode drive system—including +R, Individual, Sport, and Comfort modes—you can instantly tune it for the track or the street.
POWERTRAIN Turbocharged Engine With a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter VTEC® engine that delivers 315 horsepower* and 310 pound-feet of torque,* the all-new Civic Type R is not only more responsive than the previous generation, but also boasts a higher power-weight ratio.
POWERTRAIN 6-Speed Manual Transmission For better balance while braking into corners, the 6-speed manual transmission features rev-match control, which keeps engine and vehicle speeds in sync during downshifting. A new Civic Type R-exclusive shift link mechanism has shorter throws and makes shifting even smoother.
POWERTRAIN Triple-Outlet Exhaust Whether you’re ripping down a straightaway on the track or cruising through the city, the center-mounted triple-outlet exhaust’s Active Exhaust Valve strikes the perfect chord. Each mode of the 4-mode drive system features its own specially tuned exhaust note.
