Honda’s Nürburgring-proven Civic moves into 2019 unchanged-- and that's just fine. The front-driving Type R is available with a 6-speed manual transmission only that is married to a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine that produces an impressive 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft. of torque. Track-ready out of the box with Brembo front brakes, active rev-matching, adaptive damping and variable throttle and steering settings, the Type R is also practical thanks to its hot hatch body style.
