Honda itself just published a teaser video in which it announces that
the Civic Type R is coming, without actually showing the car. "We hope
you're just as excited about the new Civic Type R as we are, why not
watch the teaser film and take the Quiz to get access to exclusive
content from the Frankfurt Motor Show - including the full length film
as soon as it's LIVE," reads Honda's release. Since it has already been
officially confirmed that the new Type R will go on sale in Europe in
2015, the brand's statement suggests that Honda will release something
at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month.
Whether
that something will be a full promotional video or a pre-production
concept of the Civic Type-R remains unknown at this time. Honda CEO
Takanobu Ito has said that the company is aiming to beat the record for
the fastest front-wheel drive production car on the Nürburgring,
currently held by the 265hp Renault Megane 265 Trophy, which means that
the new Type R may very well flirt with the 300hp mark. The latest
racing Civic WTCC, which looks very similar in appearance to this
prototype, sports Honda's new 1.6-liter 4 cylinder direct injection
turbocharged HR-412E petrol engine. Article Source
