The Honda Civic Type R is a highly anticipated arrival in the hot hatch segment, especially after Honda confirmed that it will feature a brand new 2.0-liter turbocharged inline four with more than 280 horsepower and an impressive 350Nm of torque. Also, Honda said it aims to set a lap record for FWD production cars on the ‘Ring’. Looks like the Renault Megane RS TS (current lap holder) and the upcoming VW Golf ‘R’ might have something to worry about.
