2015 Honda Civic Type R Concept Debuts at the Geneva Motor Show, 2015 comes on the market.
The styling is closely linked to the performance. The Civic Type R Concept shows a pretty clear from the outside what he has to offer. Prototype testing at the Nurburgring confirm that many styling elements fulfill important functions and not only have aesthetic value. Reduced air resistance, improved downforce, cooling and optimized airflow were key considerations for the design team.
The construction of the front spoiler provides greater output, the vertical wings and the cut-out shape of the front bumper to help to reduce the air resistance and to control the air flow to the front wheels. The deep, wide status of the Type R is underlined by a red stripe on the front spoiler again.
In addition, the new headlight design and LED daytime running lights and clear-cut, horizontal fog lamps front of the new Type R Concept gives a strong character. Upper and lower front grille have been enlarged and air outlet openings on the bonnet ensure the cooling of the high-performance engine. The front and rear fenders were widened to accommodate wide tires and equipped with air outlet openings to allow air movement.
One of the features of the concept is the new rear spoiler with LED taillights, which has been integrated in the rear wing and emphasizes the futuristic look of the new Honda Civic Type R. In shape and angle of the double rear wing, the feedback from the prototype testing was implemented to generate additional downforce.
The sporty design is supported by 20-inch wheels with a red ring, red calipers and red stripes on the lower edge of the front spoiler. These design elements increase the energetic appearance and reflect the inspiring driving experience that promises the Type R.
While further details of the performance are not yet known, Honda has already confirmed that the next Type R will be the first European model with a new VTEC TURBO engine from the "Earth Dreams Technology" series. The 2.0-liter four-cylinder with direct injection and turbocharger should be with its characteristics and a capacity of at least 280 hp to the new reference in this category.
