Honda has now been making high performance Type R models for over a quarter of a century. And it wants to reward itself with the quickest, the most focused and the most thrilling car ever to bear this famous badge. Welcome to the sixth generation Civic Type R. Yes it's still the very fastest front-driven production car you can choose, but this time round, the extreme looks of the old 'FK8' model have been dialled back a little. Don't be deceived. Honda describes this replacement 'FL5' design as 'the fastest, most addictive yet secure and rewarding to drive model in Type R history'. This is officially the sixth generation version of this design, but Honda has actually used its famous Type R badge eleven times since it first appeared back in 1992, six times on the Civic. The engine of the most recent 'FK8' model we referenced earlier (a car launched in 2017) reappears again here because combustion powerplants are no longer developed from scratch in this new EV era. But it's been heavily evolved and will fittingly close the chapter on Honda fossil fuel engine design. There'll never again be a Civic Type R quite like this one. Let's take a closer look.
As Honda intended, this is indeed the most complete Civic Type R yet. Previous models were fine for a blast but difficult to live with compared to obvious rivals. As the more mature look suggests, this sixth generation model is different, but even so, its racing instinct and competitive DNA have been perfectly preserved. Which is deeply impressive. This isn't the fastest, the grippiest or the most extreme hot hatch you could choose. But if you want the ultimate shopping rocket experience, it's still the one you might prefer when the tyre smoke clears. It's still incredibly fast, it now sounds even better and there's more cornering traction than you'd ever believe would be possible from a front-driven hot hatch with this kind of power. If you choose a Civic Type R, it'll be because you've remembered why just why it was you wanted a hot hatch in the first place. And you'll revel in the extrovert, intoxicating driving experience it offers. There's nothing quite like it.
