Pushing 320bhp through the front wheels it has a top speed of 272kmph and will do 0-100kmph in just 5.8 seconds. This is the car that every girl (and boy) racer dreams of.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who is it aimed at?\u00a0<\/strong>The Type R is aimed at real petrol heads. Other \u201chot hatches\u201d may hide behind a relatively normal bodyshell with some subtle styling differences and a sneaky badge but the Civic Type R makes no apologies for what it is. It is a head turner and will attract looks of jaw dropping awe, along with a few disgusted looks too!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Styling?\u00a0<\/strong>The best way to describe the styling of the Honda Civic Type R is functional aggression. The basic Honda Civic is a mean looking car but the Type R has been boosted to evil. However, as this is a track car for the road the vents, spoilers and ducts to the front all have a function. Continuing this theme, the rear is dominated by a huge wing and a trio of exhausts while the red Brembo callipers are a highlight of the side profile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Under the bonnet?\u00a0<\/strong>While it might not scream like the Type Rs of old the 320bhp 2.0 litre VTEC petrol engine doesn\u2019t disappoint. It does 0-100kmph in 5.7 seconds and has a top speed of 272kmph with a 6-speed manual gearbox.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about inside<\/strong><strong>?\u00a0<\/strong>From a practical point of view there\u2019s plenty of boot space and room for 2 child seats in the rear. However, not many will buy a Type R based on its practical attributes. The cabin is dominated by 2 red bucket seats that hug you in place. As expected the seat belts are red and carbon fibre touches set off the dashboard. A menacing \u201cR\u201d switch sits beside a riveted plate in the centre console showing your Type Rs serial number.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19504\" style=\"width: 860px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19504\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19504\" src=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\" height=\"567\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2.jpg 850w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2-321x214.jpg 321w, https:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/civic_main_2-140x94.jpg 140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-19504\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Honda Civic Type R 2017<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>On the road?<\/strong>\u00a0The suspension is far from comfortable, even in comfort mode which is not helped by the rubber bands which have been stretched over the 20\u201d alloys. However, the steering has just the right feel and the handling and acceleration are incredible. Despite being so low to the ground you don\u2019t realise how fast you\u2019re going until you look at the speedometer \u2013 this car will not help your driving licence. On the open (smooth) road you might forget what you are driving as it cruises along but when it\u2019s time to overtake the kick back into the bucket seats is a very stark reminder of what is under the bonnet \u2013 after all it is the fastest front wheel drive car around.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about safety?<\/strong>\u00a0As standard the Honda Civic Type R comes with City-brake active system, hill start assist, vehicle stability assistant and agile handling assist. Honda have packaged some safety systems together into the SENSING group which includes collision mitigation and pedestrian protection, lane departure warning and road departure mitigation, traffic sign recognition and adaptive cruise control.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are my options?\u00a0<\/strong>There aren\u2019t many options as the Civic comes in two trim levels with the Type R and Type R GT, the GT has the added benefit of premium audio, Garmin navigation, front and rear parking sensors, LED front foglight and wireless charging for certain mobile phones and is priced at \u20ac53,950.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Will it break the bank?\u00a0<\/strong>If economy is at the forefront when buying a car then the Type R is not for you, it is the most expensive Civic in the range to run but is equal to its competitors. Honda claim that the Type R is capable of returning 7.7 litres per 100 km on a combined cycle but on the week I had it the average was 9.8l\/100km. However, once the novelty of the acceleration wore off I think it would be possible to average less than 8.0l\/100km. The CO2 rating of 176g\/km means motor tax is \u20ac750 per year and at \u20ac51,750 this Civic is not a cheap option.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So the verdict?\u00a0<\/strong>If you\u2019re happy to blend into the crowd a Honda Civic Type R is not for you. However, if you want a little excitement in your everyday commute and hanker after a hot hatch this might just be your perfect match!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why you\u2019ll buy one?<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Every day is a track day<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why you won\u2019t<\/strong><strong>?\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0Aggressive styling<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rivals<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/index.php\/volkswagen-golf-r\/\">VW Golf R\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/index.php\/ford-focus-rs\/\">Ford Focus RS<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/index.php\/first-drive-renault-megane-rs\/\">Renault Megane RS<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wheelsforwomen.ie\/index.php\/bmws-mighty-m2-versus-audis-awesome-rs-3\/\">Audi RS3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Honda Civic Type R<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Engine:<\/strong>\u00a01995cc<br \/>\n<strong>Max speed:<\/strong>\u00a0272 kph<br \/>\n<strong>0-100:<\/strong>\u00a05.8 seconds<br \/>\n<strong>Emissions (motor tax) :<\/strong>\u00a0176 CO2 g\/km (\u20ac750)<br \/>\n<strong>Model price range:\u00a0<\/strong>\u20ac51,750 \u2013\u00a0\u20ac53,950<br \/>\n<strong>No of Doors:<\/strong>\u00a05<br \/>\n<strong>Euro <\/strong>NCAP\u00a0: 4<br \/>\n<strong>Fuel type:<\/strong>\u00a0Petrol<br \/>\n<strong>Fuel Economy (combined cycle):\u00a0<\/strong>7.7 litres per 100 (36.7 mpg)<br \/>\n<strong>Boot Capacity Seats up:<\/strong>\u00a0420 litres<br \/>\n<strong>Length:<\/strong>\u00a04557 mm<br \/>\n<strong>Width:<\/strong>\u00a01877 mm<br \/>\n<strong>Height:\u00a0<\/strong>1434 mm<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>For more information on the new Type R\u00a0 check out\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.honda.ie\/\">Honda.ie<\/a>, the Honda Ireland\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/hondacarsireland?fref=ts\">Facebook\u00a0<\/a>page or\u00a0follow them on twitter\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/HondaIreland\">here<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Suzanne Keane<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>21st September 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Suzanne Keane checks out the new Red Hot Honda Civic Type R\u00a0 What is it?\u00a0The new Type R Civic from Honda is officially the fastest front wheel drive hatchback as proven on the Nurburgring.
