Electrification could be on the cards for future Honda Civic Type R models 👀 “Anything is possible,” says Ko Yamamoto, technical advisor for Honda Europe ⚡
With the brand set to launch a range of new EVs from 2023 as it pushes forward with its plan to phase out combustion engines, it’s reasonable to expect that the 2022 Civic Type R will be the last non-electrified version of the brand’s popular hot hatch.
“Electrification is just another technical measure, like VTEC or a turbo, or multi-link suspension,” Yamamoto told Autocar at an early pre-launch passenger ride for the new Type R.There are certain attributes that are important for a Type R: the ultimate response, the unity between driver and machine. How that’s being achieved? That’s another story, and I’m quite sure it can be achieved with some kind of electrification.
Electrification is highly likely, if not a certainty, then. However, four-wheel drive seems to be out of the question for any future Type R.
