The launch of the all-new Civic Type R comes as Honda celebrates 25 years of its iconic high-performance hatchback – and 50 years of Civic. The next-generation model has been engineered to deliver the fastest Civic Type R to date, building on a long tradition of performance cars inspired by the spirit of racing.Building on the human-centred approach to dynamics, design and usability applied when developing the 11th generation Civic, Honda engineers have refined every aspect to create the Civic Type R. Integrated design enhancements including a functional hood vent and a new rear diffuser that bring new aerodynamic benefits, whilst complementing the sporty silhouette. The Type R is also lower and wider than the standard Civic, with a new rear spoiler design accentuating the sleek roofline and contributing to the car’s aerodynamic performance and muscular appearance.Lightweight components and an increase in power from the 2.0 litre four-cylinder petrol engine combine to create one of the highest power-to-weight ratio in its class. A revised rev-match system with auto blip ensures that gear changes with the six-speed manual transmission offer drivers a rewarding experience.Inside, the Type R features the evocative red interior, lightweight sport seats and driver-focused controls that distinguish all performance Hondas. In addition to pre-set driver modes, a new Individual mode enables new levels of customisation for drivers, enabling them to personalise vehicle characteristics such as throttle response and steering feedback. The onboard Honda Log R datalogger has improved monitoring and an innovative scoring function to help drivers improve their performance on the track.

The sixth generation of the Honda CR-V, the company’s best-selling model globally, debuts with a bolder, more confident appearance and exceptional levels of practicality, safety, connectivity, and comfort.The popular C-segment SUV will be offered with the choice of either a full hybrid (e:HEV) powertrain or, for the first-time on a European Honda, a plug-in hybrid (e:PHEV) option, delivering dynamic performance and efficiency across the range. This expanded powertrain line up represents Honda’s multi-pathway approach to electrification and offers customers a broad range of products. Within the UK market the Honda CR-V full hybrid (e:HEV) will be offered as AWD and the Honda CR-V plug-in hybrid (e:PHEV) will be offered as 2WD.The familiar e:HEV powertrain has been revised and updated for the new CR-V, and now features a more energy-dense, downsized battery and more efficient motor, whilst the all-new e:PHEV, with its larger battery pack, offers up to 82km (50 miles) in all-electric range.Engineers have refined every aspect of the latest model with a focus on the advanced and sporty values of the Honda brand, while aiming to make the ultimate all-round SUV. Greater sophistication of driver aids, active safety, and connected technologies, as well as the application of high-quality materials throughout the cabin, all serve to elevate the vehicle proposition.

The new Honda ZR-V presents a unique silhouette within the C-SUV segment through an attractive combination of sophisticated styling, a high-quality interior and an exhilarating yet comfortable ride. The new ZR-V has been designed to inspire confidence, enhance freedom and appeal to a wide diversity of European customers.Positioned between the HR-V and the new CR-V, the ZR-V is the latest Honda SUV to come standard with the highly acclaimed e:HEV hybrid powertrain. It has been revised for its application in this model and continues to provide a unique and exceptional combination of performance and efficiency in all driving situations, whether on the highway or off-road. So the efficient and powerful 2.0-litre direct-injected four-cylinder engine works together with two electric motors (generator and booster) to deliver exhilarating performance normally associated with sporty hatchbacks.The elegant exterior design of the ZR-V is defined by the timeless mix of smooth, uninterrupted surfaces that flow from front to rear, with precise gaps between the panels and well-defined details, such as the strong beltline. Beginning at the front with slim headlamps with clearly defined light signatures and a large, streamlined grille, the quiet appearance continues along the clean flanks and culminates in a bold rear bumper and taillights that seamlessly integrate with the tailgate.
