Staying Cool With the Honda Civic Type R
You only need to glance at the aerodynamic Honda Civic Type R to realize it symbolizes Honda’s iconic racing legacy. It looks like a race car through and through, and that’s even more true this year. This is partly due to the larger upper grille area. The new design allows more air to flow to the front-mount intercooler and radiator. Overheating is always a concern with race cars, but the Honda Civic Type R will remain cool, even on the hottest days.

Sporty and Stylish Profile
The 2023 Civic Type R has some other changes as well. First, the lower grille is much more open than previous models. Additionally, there appears to be a significant change to the rear quarters. Like the previous model year, the rear quarters are still wide. However, Honda created a smoother transition toward the door. This makes the profile even more stylish while maintaining the sporty look people love with the Civic Type R.
Then the prototype’s side skirts provide a nice low profile and offer a smooth transition to the bumper. Other features worth noting include the side diffusers and fins that complete the sporty look. Much remains hidden, but this is an impressive car.
