Press Release
Honda Civic Type R GT announced
Honda’s approach to building performance cars is unlike any other. It’s not just about building the most powerful or fastest car in the world. It’s about creating a well-engineered driving experience.
The 2007 Civic Type R will feature responsive steering, intuitive handling and exhilarating performance in a more sophisticated package.
Under the bonnet, a high-revving 2.0-litre iVTEC engine produces a strong 200PS, and Honda’s tuning specialists have further developed the powerplant to improve efficiency and deliver thrilling acceleration.
The new Type R will also have a GT grade, which will offer extra equipment such as dual zone air conditioning and automatic rain and light sensors.
British fans will get their first chance to see the Type R Concept when the car is displayed at the British International Motor Show in London during July. The Civic Type R goes on sale in the UK in March 2007.
