Honda has recently released a design sketch for the Civic Type R concept which will be officially unveiled at the 84th Geneva Motor Show.
The highly anticipated Civic Type R is set for a release in production form in 2015 and it seems it will adopt a much more aggressive appearance than the standard model. The beefier body kit comes with wide tracks with vented wheel arch extensions while at the rear the rather spectacular wing hosts futuristic taillights giving the hot hatchback a very special look.
Other notable changes include the implementation of a quad exhaust system and a rear diffuser, along with bespoke black alloy wheels and a matte black finish which starts at the rear bumper and surrounds the entire car.
Power will be derived from a newly developed 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder Earth Dreams gasoline engine outputting at least 277 hp (206 kW) but it is believed Honda is targeting an output of around 300 hp (224 kW). The power will be transferred to the front axle exclusively through a six-speed manual gearbox. The range-topping Civic will come with a stiffer chassis and with standard adaptive rear dampers which are optional on the Civic Tourer.
