Design

While the advanced technology and performance capabilities of the 2021 Honda Civic Type R are what steal the show, it still arrives with plenty of leading man good looks. An expanded grille pulls double duty, adding aggressive styling along with improved engine cooling ability, topped off with its exclusive red Honda logo and Type R badging. A lightweight aluminum hood protects the engine, with a stylish air intake also helping cool things down when the Type R heats up. A racing-inspired skirt package provides impressive aerodynamics, simply follow the red line found at the bottom of this sporty coupe from the front to the side and rear spoilers—only broken by the 20” aluminum-alloy wheels in piano black with red accents. Of course, Honda couldn’t forget the back of the Civic Type R—completed by a triple centre exhaust and rear wing spoiler—since that’s what other vehicles on the road are going to be looking at most of the time. The unique and sporty style continues inside the 2021 Civic Type R, from its sport seats and aluminum shift knob, to the textured aluminum-trimmed sport pedals. Add in the Type R serial number plate, found just below the gearshift, for the type of detailing that truly separates this sporty Honda from the rest of the pack.

Performance

Taking inspiration from its six consecutive Formula One Constructor’s Championships, and following in the spirit of founder Soichiro Honda that believed racing was the pinnacle of automotive art, the 2021 Honda Civic Type R takes its performance more than a little seriously—even if driving it is incredibly fun. A turbocharged, direct-injection 2.0-litre engine with 16 valves, 4-cylinders, and Honda’s legendary VTEC® technology ensures the Type R gets more than its fair share of power, rocketing forward with 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque (all while retaining a pretty spectacular 8.4 L/100 km fuel economy rating on the highway). All that raw power is only matched by unparalleled control, thanks in part to the Civic’s short throw 6-speed manual transmission, and aided by the three selectable driver modes that automatically adjust steering and throttle response along with transmission rev-matching. Power assisted, ventilated front disc brakes with Brembo 4-piston aluminum calipers—painted red, of course—provide the stopping power, while the Adaptive Damper System helps adjust damping force for an even more intuitive driving feel. The 2021 Honda Civic Type R doesn’t just look fast, it performs the part too.

Safety & Technology

Helping keep you safe behind the wheel of the 2021 Civic Type R, the full suite of Honda Sensing™ Technologies is at your disposal; from Forward Collision Warning to other advanced systems like Lane Departure and Lane Keeping Assist, the Type R has you covered. Collision Mitigation Braking System™, Road Departure Mitigation, and Adaptive Cruise Control round out the Honda Sensing™ features, but given how much fun the Type R is to drive, we have a feeling you won’t be using the cruise control all that often. 

While Honda Sensing™ is pretty standard among the different Honda models, the 2021 Civic Type R offers something you won’t find anywhere else: the LogR™ app. Available through the Apple or Google Play app stores, LogR™ utilizes the Type R’s onboard computer to break down every aspect of both you and your Civic’s performance. Track acceleration, deceleration, and cornering data to help you master the performance of your 2021 Type R thanks to the LogR™ Auto Score function, using algorithms tuned by professional Honda drivers. And when you hit the track, turn on the LogR™ Log Mode and track your lap times down to the millisecond, all while keeping track of important factors like your air, water, and oil temperature. The 2021 Honda Civic Type R isn’t just a racing machine, it’s the most advanced racing machine Honda has ever sold to the public!
