A few days ago we announced the arrival of the new Honda Civic Type R. Now Kolesa has removed the camouflage and shows the look of the most powerful version of the hatchback.

The new Civic Type R is slightly wider than its predecessor, but retains an aggressive look. It is equipped with a new grille, larger wheel arches, centrally placed exhaust tailpipes, larger wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires, larger air intakes on the new bumper, a larger rear wing, a new diffuser and a triple exhaust.

Under the hood will be a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine with more than 320 hp (235 kW) and 295 lb-ft (400 Nm) of torque, which are the numbers that the European version of its predecessor has. The engine will be paired with a six-speed manual transmission that will transfer power to the front axle.

The Honda Civic Type R is the 11th generation of this model, which is expected to be, as previously announced, the last Honda model with ICE to be sold in Europe. Although it will arrive on the European market in 2022, American buyers will have to wait until 2023.
