The Honda Civic Type R returns to the lineup for 2023. Based on the 11th-generation Civic, the new Type R features a 315-hp turbo four and comes exclusively with a manual transmission. Our first, brief encounter with the new Type R was on the track and included hot laps with two-time Formula 1 champion Max Verstappen.
The latest Type R has a more restrained appearance than its predecessor.
Behind the black mesh grille and red Honda badge, a turbocharged 2.0-liter engine makes 315 horsepower.
A large wing towers over the rear liftgate.
The Type R badge denotes the high-performance version of the Civic.
Our time with the Type R was limited to a brief track session.
We drove the Type R at Harris Hill Raceway, outside Austin, Texas.
Two-time F1 champion Max Verstappen was on hand to push the Type R to its limits.
