You know the 2019 Civic Hatchback, so now wait until you see the Japanese industry bombshell that's on the horizon with the all-new 2020 Honda Civic Type R, which features a hyperventilated bumper, a hood equipped with an air intake, 20-inch wheels wrapped in hyper-wide tires, powerful brakes, a raised rear spoiler and even a three-piece exhaust system. Is that enough? No, it's not!
Longueuil Honda, near Boucherville, Brossard, Chambly and just minutes from Montreal, presents this Honda sports car with its changes, improvements and revised style.
The 2020 Honda Type R Bites the Dust
Numerous major modifications have been made to the 2020 Civic Type R, and the improvements made give it even more guts and boldness. The new two-piece brake discs and brake pads are designed to reduce fading and improve braking efficiency at high speeds, while suspension revisions for 2020 include updated shocks for improved ride comfort, stiffer rear bushings for better grip and revisions to the front suspension and steering for a better driving feel. Even more spectacularly, the front grille has been redesigned to allow better engine cooling in high demand.
Inside, the 2020 Civic Type R will feature additional refinement that includes a new Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel and a new gearshift lever with a redesigned knob and shorter gearshifts. Every 2020 Civic Type R will be equipped with the Honda Sensing suite of safety and driver assistance technologies, making it standard equipment on all Honda Civic models and versions when the 2020 Type R goes on sale.
Unlike its rivals (Volkswagen Golf R and the Subaru WRX Sti to name a few), the 2020 Honda Civic Type R comes equipped with wheel drive for outstanding handling. Under the hood is a turbocharged 2.0-litre VTEC 4-cylinder engine that produces 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. The Type R also features a six-speed manual transmission. As before, drivers can choose between three driving modes (Comfort, Sport and +R) that vary in suspension firmness, steering and pedal response.
New for 2020 is the famous Active Sound Control, which modifies the interior sound in conjunction with the chosen driving mode. The selectable driving modes and sophisticated design of the Type R make it both an exciting companion on a mountain road or racetrack or a remarkably civilized everyday driver with a degree of flexibility that is unmatched in its competitive package.
With its impressive bumpers and highly reflective exterior, this car will put on a show, in addition to the smoked LED headlights and side repeater indicators that make this car attractive, aggressive and accentuated.
With the eternal craze that surrounds this Civic, it will be impossible to stay ice cold in front of this small performance car, so come and talk to your dealer soon about the 2020 Honda Civic Type R; a car that will blow your mind.
