2024 Honda Civic Type R – High-Performance Hatchback (2024)

The Pinnacle of Honda Factory Performance

Driven by our relentless determination to keep improving, we not only created the most powerful Civic ever, but also the most agile. And with its 4-mode drive system—including +R, Individual, Sport, and Comfort modes—you can instantly tune it for the track or the street.

Turbocharged Engine

With a turbocharged and intercooled 2.0-liter VTEC® engine that delivers 315 horsepower* and 310 pound-feet of torque,* the Civic Type R is not only highly responsive, but also boasts an impressive power-weight ratio.

6-Speed Manual Transmission

For better balance while braking into corners, the 6-speed manual transmission features rev-match control, which keeps engine and vehicle speeds in sync during downshifting. A Civic Type R-exclusive shift link mechanism makes shifting even smoother.

Triple-Outlet Exhaust

Whether you’re ripping down a straightaway on the track or cruising through the city, the center-mounted triple-outlet exhaust’s Active Exhaust Valve strikes the perfect chord. Each mode of the 4-mode drive system features its own specially tuned exhaust note.

Dual-Axis Front Suspension

Accelerate through corners with maximum confidence, thanks to the unique dual-axis MacPherson strut front suspension that helps minimize torque steer and deliver precise steering response.

Multi-Link Rear Suspension

With high-rigidity components, the rear suspension offers stability and support for a linear handling response.

Adaptive Damper System

As you steer through corners, the adaptive damper system helps control roll and pitch to give you a uniform, direct steering feel. With the 4-mode drive system, you can instantly tune the dampers for performance or comfort.

Brembo® Front Brake Calipers

Renowned for their braking performance and lightweight construction, four-piston Brembo®* calipers complement the13.8 inch two-piece front rotors for optimal stopping power.

Limited-Slip Differential

A helical limited-slip differential helps minimize front-wheel slippage for more precise steering when accelerating and cornering.

Electric Power Steering

The dual-pinion, variable-ratio electric power steering offers confidence at high speeds and a precise feel at low speeds. And with the 4-mode drive system, you can instantly tune the steering to your drive, from +R mode at the track to Comfort mode on the highway.

Michelin® Pilot® Sport 4 S Tires

Measuring 265 mm wide—20 mm wider than the previous-generation Civic Type R tires—the Michelin® Pilot® Sport 4 S* tires provide improved grip while cornering.

Lightweight Components

Every ounce counts on the track, which is why virtually every inch of the Civic Type R features lightweight components, from the flywheel and crankshaft to the resin-made hatch, aluminum hood, and sport seats.

Never Restrained

Civic performance has never looked better. The Civic Type R features sleek, aerodynamic styling and a performance-focused co*ckpit, with enhanced visibility and a track-ready Driver Information Interface.

Engine and Brake Cooling

A 48% larger grille opening than the previous-generation Civic Type R and a wide, low hood vent help maximize engine cooling while minimizing airflow resistance. Optimized brake ducts help keep front brakes cooler through multiple laps of circuit driving.

Stability

Side underbody spoilers, front fender outlets, and integrated rear fenders help guide airflow and maintain consistent air pressure around the wheels for optimal stability in and out of turns.

Downforce

The track-tested rear spoiler and diffuser designs, including die-cast aluminum wing stays, help increase downforce and control air resistance.

19-Inch Matte-Black Wheels

Lightweight and highly rigid, the aluminum alloy wheels feature a reverse rim design to enhance stability at high speeds.

Grille

In addition to the Type R symbol and red H-badge that signify the connection to our performance heritage, the sleek grille features gloss-black accents that coordinate with the rear spoiler and diffuser to carve out a unique identity.

Hatch

The all-resin hatch is 20 percent lighter than a conventional steel hatch, and provides a wide opening for loading your gear into the cargo area.

Visibility

The Civic Type R was built to create wide sightlines and minimize blind spots. The hood, side mirrors, fenders, and rear spoiler are all designed to promote visibility and awareness of your vehicle’s position on the track or the road.

Driver Information Interface

With the 4-mode drive system, you can customize the all-digital display to see critical data in your line of sight. In +R mode, an LED shift light above the interface helps you gauge shift points without taking your eyes off the track.

Sport Seats

Heavily bolstered to help keep you in place during hard cornering, the enhanced sport front seats are also designed to give you better maneuverability for steering and shifting.

Sport Pedals

Sport pedals give you a firm foothold and add a bold, racing-inspired detail to the co*ckpit.

Serial Plate

Every Civic Type R is unique, with an individually numbered serial plate to mark its place in the limited production run.
