But to Type R buyers, the back seat is a secondary consideration. The GR Corolla seats five passengers except for the wild Morizo version, which accommodates only two. Of the four in this category, the Civic Type R slips a notch in practicality for providing four seats instead of five as with the Elantra N, Golf R and Subaru WRX, though even the Hyundai’s capacious back seat is a squeeze when full. The Type R competes with the likes of Hyundai Elantra N, Subaru WRX, Volkswagen Golf R and Toyota GR Corolla, all of which have spunky, in-your-face personalities and serious enthusiast cred. Best of all, depending on the beholder, it looks much cleaner and more muscular than the old model. New features for 2023 include a tweaked engine with more power better aerodynamics and improved wing placement a specially tuned high-flow exhaust system a 48% larger grille opening a bigger radiator stiffer body structure and an upgraded Bose audio system with 12 speakers. But it’s not the Type R.Īvailable in a single trim with no package options, the Civic Type R returns sleeker and stronger, flexing its muscles. Equipped with capable 1.5- and 2.0-liter four-cylinder engines with up to 200 horsepower, the 2022 Civic is fun to drive and an all-star among compact cars. The regular Civic got a complete redesign for 2022 and emerged for its 11th generation with much more pleasing looks and a host of tech upgrades. After skipping a year in 2022, the Type R has finally reemerged for 2023, and it’s worth the wait.
Hot hatch fans have been waiting eagerly for the return of the Honda Civic Type R.
