You may think the head chart looks a bit fake?
Because the mass production version of the New Civic TYPE R has not yet been officially unveiled, the clearest is only the high-pseudo prototype at the Tokyo Modified Auto Show.
Therefore, Brother K can only be replaced by a rendering made on the external network, for reference only.
Since last year, it has been reported that Honda is going to introduce a new Civic TYPE R, which is sold in China in the form of Tomoto CKD (imported parts to domestic reassembly and production).
The source is Higashimoto's 2022 new car plan, which includes the new Civic TYPE R.
The more important news is that the price of the new car may be between 300,000 and 400,000, which is half lower than the small trade version of 700,000.
u1s1, the price is already about the same as the pre-sale price of Japan (5.5 million yen), what kind of bicycle is this?
Not only the Civic TYPE R, but also the ordinary hatchback version of the new Civic will also be launched this year, and everyone knows what to do when the time comes.
Let's start with the appearance, many people say that this generation of TYPE R does not have the "handsome at a glance" of ten generations.
In fact, Civic has always been this "old-fashioned" style, but the ten generations of painting style mutation, the eleventh generation is a return to the simple design style of FD2 and FK2.
The main problem of the New Civic is that I personally feel that it appears on the front surround, and the design of the "Eight Character Hu" K Brother has not yet adapted.
Type R has no problem, just like the ordinary Civic upside down, into the lower narrow upper width of the inverted trapezoidal design.
This is much more pleasing to the eye, and the L-shaped design on both sides is also wide, making the front of the car look wider.
The side is similar to the ordinary Civic, u1s1, this generation of hatchback Civic slip back design is quite unique.
The back curve is smoother and flatter, and with just the right big tail, it looks more advanced.
The taillights use a through-line design, but what I don't understand is that the middle of the hair is disconnected, and isn't it more recognizable to connect together? It's like a Porsche.
The bottom is still the classic triple exhaust, no matter what, type R's middle soul must not be lost!
The interior basically follows the design of the ordinary Civic, and the details have been upgraded, such as the use of Alcantara fur material, red seat belts, metal ball head gears and so on.
In terms of power, this generation is equipped with an upgraded 2.0T turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 320 horsepower, and the drivetrain is still matched with a 6MT manual transmission.
Ok, the news about the new Civic is said so much for the time being, and brother K will also follow up in time when there is new news.
Ps. According to the time schedule, the new Civic TYPE R is likely to appear at this year's Chengdu or Guangzhou Auto Show.
To talk about Brother K's opinion, I personally feel that if it is not faith, there is no need to buy it as the first performance car.
There are many reasons, last year Brother K went to Shanghai to try its similar product Megane RS, which is a hand wave front-drive small steel cannon.
In Hangzhou, I also rented a carnival ST, and later rubbed my colleague's Fox ST several times, all of which were hand-wave.
The biggest feeling they give me is that they will stimulate your driving desire infinitely, what does it mean, that is, when you touch its gear and step on the clutch, you will involuntarily want to step on the accelerator and change gears back and forth.
Speeding is already commonplace, and I simply can't drive them honestly like driving a Corolla.
From the perspective of daily transportation, the suspension of the car is extremely hard, and the slightest pit will bounce sharply, and the comfort of the rear passengers is extremely poor.
Big foot throttle and torque steering, try to control oil separation and shifting at the same time, but also have to control the body posture.
If you want to fight for acceleration results, you will find that type-R is not very fast, the original factory zero hundred and 5.7 seconds, which is almost 1 second slower than the similar European four-wheel drive small steel gun.
And if you want to modify, you will find that you can't explode, and the horsepower is limited by the drive form, and you can't adjust it too high.
So what's so appealing about it? Actually on the track.
The TYPE-R's original track performed well, breaking the Golf GTI Clubsport S record at 7.43.8 in New North, becoming the fastest front-drive production car on the Nürburgring Nordschleife.
Ps. At the time, the modification was only to add roll cages, and the entertainment system and rear seats were eliminated to offset the weight of the roll cage, and tires that met production standards were used.
Daily driving is more recommended A45, S3 such as four-wheel drive small steel running, four-wheel drive + self-wave does not require superb driving skills, can let you in a straight line or corner on the climax.
Playability is also great, there is no front-drive like a high horsepower constraint, you can think of what you want.
Finally, there is another reason, that is, the current TYPE-R is actually biased.
Obviously you bought a TYPE-R, but because of the arrival of the turbocharged engine, there is no FD2's very linear power output and the charming sound wave effect when the TEC is exploded.
As a TYPE-R, the most essential thing is replaced by more advanced technology.
For example, the EK9's B16A, the coolness of the low-torsional mediocre, high-speed surging high-ryu engine has disappeared.
Maybe you'll still have pleasure, but that pleasure definitely doesn't come from self-sucking VTEC!
So who is the introduction of the domestic Civic TYPE-R suitable for?
It should be the kind of high-level player who plays the main circuit, and the daily transportation accounts for only a small part of the demand.
Or pure Honda powder, the kind that can be wet when you see a red head mark.
VeTC is the best!
