We all know and love the Honda Civic Type R, but maybe we know it a little too well. You could argue that perfection requires no updates, but we'd say there’s always something to improve. Based on Honda Racing Corporation’s (HRC) latest video and the latest reports from Japan, Big Red agrees with us—the Type R HRC Concept is headed to showrooms this year.
HRC President Koji Watanabe told Car Watch about Honda’s plan to bring the HRC concept to production. During a Type R owner’s event at Honda-owned Mobility Resort Motegi, Watanabe-san expanded on the HRC Concept that was teased at this year’s Tokyo Auto Salon.
