I got word from someone that the Civic Type R was rated 240+ hp at the wheels based on their dyno test.
Almost as good as the new 2.0T Accord.. with a lighter body..

From what I've seen typical driveline losses for 2wd cars are around 15-20% but I think it's different for every car. 240 whp is a lot for such a light car.
10sec worth of YT search yielded 285-290whp baseline vidz.

SRP in the US is around USD 34K but dealers are selling at almost double that. Looks like HCP's local pricing is not so crazy after all.
Was really tempted. If not for the manual transmission i would have gotten in on the action. But i heard it sold out 2 days after they opened it for reservations, so the point was moot.

If the Civic Type R had AWD, it would have been heavier and even slower. Something like 350hp and AWD on a Civic Type R would have made it like the Focus RS. The Golf R in 6MT is slower off the line compared to Golf R with DSG. The RS3 and A45 are on a different league compared to the Focus RS, Golf R, and Civic Type R. I wonder how would the M2 match up against the RS3 and A45.
the japanese honda engineering team are already testing an awd civic hehehe... maybe a 400hp beast?

This one?
"Developed with input from tuner Olsbergs MSE, the Rallycross-bound Civic is powered by a purpose-designed engine that sends a solid 600 horsepower to all four wheels. Full performance specifications aren’t available yet, but Honda promises the Civic can hit 60 mph from a stop in just 1.9 seconds. In other words, it’s faster than even the acclaimed 1,500 horsepower Bugatti Chiron."
Honda’s Global Rallycross entry is a 6 -hp Civic that does zero to 6 in just 1.9 seconds
Specs:
- 600 HP
- AWD
- 0-60 in 1.9s
1.9s?? Damn!! That's crazy fast!
I think I prefer this design rather than the Type R. It looks a lot cleaner, less clutter, more streamlined and sportier. But, not really sure whether they are going to produce this for the consumer market. If yes, this is going to be so awesome!!
