The next hot Honda Civic Type R will remain within grasp of most punters, with a reasonable price tag attached.
The 228kW, turbo 2.0-litre front-driver, is set to come to Oz in one “feature-packed” spec, priced at $50,990, putting it at almost $10K more than its German GTI rival.
Honda Civic Type R caught in Australia
Honda Oz director Stephen Collins says the hot Civic arrives as the red Type R badge celebrates its 25th birthday.
“As a record-holder around the Nürburgring Nordschleife, it’s clearly the fastest, most dynamic Type R model ever sold in Australia. Enthusiasts across the country are going to absolutely love it.”
“We’ve also added the full Honda Sensing suite as standard which brings AEB capability, the convenience of adaptive cruise control, plus a whole lot more,” Collins says.
Like the base-spec Honda Civics already here, however, the Type R won’t have sat-nav.
The new Type R arrives here in October, though orders have been open since May.
