The Honda Civic Type R is a legendary vehicle that made its debut in 2022 as the sixth generation. With its sporty and aerodynamic design, this model car has won many hearts. Powered by a potent 2.0-liter VTEC turbo engine delivering up to 320 horsepower, the Civic Type R sets benchmarks in terms of performance and driving dynamics. The development and design of the Civic Type R are the result of the dedicated efforts of engineers like Hideki Kakinuma and designers like Morisawa Matsuri. The thoughtful aerodynamics and distinctive appearance with sharp lines and a large rear spoiler make it a standout vehicle in its class.
The model shown, manufactured by Pop Race at a scale of 1/64, is an impressive replica of the original Honda Civic Type R.

The original Honda Civic Type R boasts numerous technical innovations and features.
