What to Expect in the 2023 Honda Civic R
Reserved Styling with Powerful Performance
The 2023 Honda Civic Type R brings a reserved, yet powerful vehicle to the exceptional Civic lineup. Like the previous generation, the 2023 Type R has a high-performance rear wing and red accents, but unlike the previous generation, the 2023 model no longer is overstyled and now has a refined, minimalist look. The focus is on the power under the hood, rather than the excessive exterior styling. With the 2023 Honda Civic Type R release date in late July, the exciting vehicle is available at Pat Peck Honda for drivers around Gulfport.
Performance Specs
Honda continues to put the four-cylinder turbocharged 2.0-liter engine. But unlike the typical engine in the standard Civic models, this one is tuned to achieve 306 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. The hot hatch will only be available with a six-speed manual transmission with a rev-matching system – making it more powerful than the previous model.
The performance-tuned Civic Hatchback comes standard with front-wheel drive and 19-inch lightweight wheels covered with wide, summer performance tires. The front suspension and steering are enhanced by the lower and wider design with enhanced aerodynamics to reduce drag thanks to the rear spoiler. Honda added larger front fender grilles and a side sill for better airflow. The rear doors are wider, and the rear bumper fits three round exhaust ports and a diffuser.
Honda offers the Civic Type R in five colors: Historic Championship White, Rallye Red, Boost Blue, Crystal Black Pearl, and Sonic Grey Pearl.
Tech and Infotainment
The 2023 Honda Civic Type R specs include a unique interior with iconic red seats, carpet, and trim. The red Type R plate is on the dash and hood. The upholstery has a suede-like texture to prevent the driver and passengers from slipping when accelerating. The tech features include a +R driving mode to show drivers RPMs, rev indicator lights, and gear position.
The refined interior includes a center console with the shifter, a pair of cupholders, and a digital gauge cluster. Honda includes a 9.0-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a Wi-Fi hotspot, and wireless charging.
Honda includes the Honda Sensing Safety features in the Type R. These features include Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane-Departure Warning, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Centering Assist, and Blind Spot Warning with Rear Cross-Traffic Assist.
