| The Civic TYPE R has arrived in Japan. Manufactured at a Honda plant in England, the traditional home of motor racing, this popular European 3-door hatchback now takes to the road with upgraded dynamic performance credentials including a bullet-like aerodynamic form and high-power, fuel-efficient 2.0-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine. Complementing the engine is a new 6-speed manual transmission with close ratios to ensure the engine stays in its optimum power band during acceleration. The suspension is also carefully tuned to match the TYPE R specification. |

This all-round high-performer features Honda's new i-VTEC, a combination of VTEC (Variable Valve Timing and lift, Electronic Control) and VTC (Valve Timing Control) operating on both inlet and exhaust valves.
VTEC assures good fuel economy and lower emissions, while VTC delivers high torque and power output at all engine speeds.

| Type R traces its origins back to the car that raced to Honda's first Formula One victory at the Mexico Grand Prix in 1965. That special car raced in a pure white livery emblazoned with a crimson script emblem-an emblem that symbolized Honda's racing spirit. We have reserved that same crimson script for our TYPE R production cars. It is a mark of special excellence, signifying technology developed in the fierce crucible of motor sports and Honda's unswerving dedication to racing. |
