Typically, there’s a decent piece of time between when critics initially drive a new vehicle and when it goes on sale. Honda’s bucking convention with the 2017 Civic Type R, as now you can select one today.
The 2017 Honda Civic Type R is on sale, few hours after the internet flooded with Civic Type R first-drive stories. As it was reported in May, its beginning cost is $33,900, which doesn’t include $875 for destination and handling. Given its appeal, some dealers might attempt to mark it up, so you may wish to work out some patience and await the market to take a chill pill.
Leaks were supportive when it comes to Honda’s release. Not just prices information leak ahead of time, however the EPA’s site also validated the Civic Type R’s fuel economy at 22 mpg city, 28 mpg highway and 25 mpg integrated, well before the official statement. That’s what happens when Honda finally chooses to bring a hallowed badge to the United States.
The Civic Type R is only available in one trim in the United States. The totally loaded Touring trim consists of adaptive dampers, LED headlights and a 7-inch infotainment screen with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
