Honda Civic Type ‘R’ To Get 2.0-liter turbocharged 300bhp Engine In 2014

The next generation Civic Type ‘R’ will be powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged engine that could develop about 300bhp. Honda will replace the 1.6-liter motorsport engine with a bigger all new 2.0-liter direct injection engine mated to a 6-speed gearbox in order to compete with the Renault Megane RS 265. Honda also wants to beat the Megane’s record on Nurburgring and become the fastest front-wheel-drive car on the Nurburgring. Despite using a turbocharger, the new engine will still offer top-end power of the old naturally-aspirated VTEC Type-R engine. Moreover, Honda will use a new suspension set-up that promises to minimize torque steer as well as other performance-boosting enhancements. Honda might also add in mechanical limited-slip differential and even rear-wheel steering which is being used in the 3.5 V6 Accord.
