Perfecting the formula: Our Digital Editor Khurtizz gets the details on the next Honda Civic Type R
FL5 aims to sell even more than the previous carYou’re looking at the next Honda Civic Type R – no, really. Codenamed FL5, the next Type R looks far tamer than what came before, but underneath it’s anything but. Simultaneously more extreme on the inside and less polarizing on the outside, it’s designed to be the most complete Type R yet.
Look further down and you’ll see a triple-pipe configuration similar to the old car, only here it’s reversed: two smaller pipes sit either side of a larger one, with all three nestled into a new diffuser.Every aspect has of the car has seen small but noticeable gains: the Brembo brakes return, though everything around them is different. ‘What we’ve changed significantly is the cooling,’ Yamamoto says, while showing us a new duct in the front wheel arch and a set of vents behind it.
And what output increase? Yamamoto won’t budge and Honda won’t release the Civic’s new power figures until after homologation – but our passenger lap makes us think the 2023 Type R is knocking on Focus RS power. Directly ahead in the driver’s line of sight lies an arc of old-school LEDs, replacing the virtual TFT lights from the last Type R. They light up near the upper reaches of the rev range as you hone in on the redline.
