2018 Civic Type R (320hp) – 0-260 km/h LAUNCH START! Acceleration & Sound by turboandstance - June 30, 2018June 29, 2020 AST Autobahn acceleration with the new Honda Civic Type R powered by a 2.0 VTEC Turbo with 320 hp & 400 Nm of torque through 6-speed MT and FWD. Yes, this car is pure Motorsport…likely the best hot hatch I’ve driven so far. The most engaging element really is the transmission which allows ultra-fast gear changes almost in the speed of a DCT. The acceleration figures are therefore quite impressive for a MT FWD car. Leave a comment
