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. 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. 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. The 2021 Honda Civic Type R doesn’t just look fast, it performs the part too. 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. 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. 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). 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. 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. 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. 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. 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. A lightweight aluminum hood protects the engine, with a stylish air intake also helping cool things down when the Type R heats up. 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. 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.
