2024 Honda Civic Type R
Starting at $45.890
Highs: An absolute grip gorilla, fiery turbo four-cylinder, buttery shift action.
Lows: Tiny fuel tank, suffers from loud road noise, very few options.
Verdict: The Civic Type R pairs well with track days, short commutes, and childhood tuner-car dreams.
Overview
Fun is what the Honda Civic Type R feasts on. Intended as much for storming race tracks as for road driving, this heavily dramatized version of the standard Civic hatchback is offered exclusively with a raucous 315-hp turbocharged inline-four and six-speed manual transmission. On our test track, the CTR threw down mighty levels of grip, sticking to the pavement like a double-yellow line. While road noise is high, the glowing red carpet and matching red seats found in every Civic Type R are as comfy as they come—though Honda saves heated seats for the CTR's fraternal twin, the Acura Integra Type S. The Civic's substantially lower starting price makes it our pick of these two hotted-up compact sedans, but both the CTR and the Integra Type S earned 10Best and Editors' Choice awards this year.

Civic Type R: $45,890
The Honda Civic Type R's starting price is as competitive as its performance. With few options to tack on beyond its initial MSRP, the CTR is not only slightly cheaper than the Volkswagen Golf R, but it's also just below the price of the entry-level Toyota Supra. While personal preference will define if two seats are better than four, the most powerful Civic Type R is ultimately an affordable sports car with four doors and a hatch.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
The Civic Type R is powered by the same turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder as the previous-generation car, but a reworked turbocharger with a more efficient exhaust system has increased power output to 315 horsepower at 6500 rpm with 310 pound-feet of torque at 2600 to 4000 rpm. The Civic Type R also benefits from additional improvements, such as a larger radiator and improved brake cooling. Honda has also increased the rpm at which the active exhaust valve opens to heighten the car's four-cylinder symphony. A lighter flywheel paired with a revised rev-match system further rewards rowing at the CTR's six-speed manual transmission. The front-drive-only Honda uses an innovative dual-axis strut front suspension that does a terrific job of suppressing the kind of annoying torque steer that can make the front-end dart under hard acceleration. While the new Civic Type R isn't as visually extreme as the old one, it still sports a prominent rear wing and other aerodynamic addenda, as well as 19-inch wheels wrapped with sticky Michelin Pilot Sport 4S performance tires. We also tested a 2023 Honda Civic Type R as part of a 0-to-150-to-0 speed test, where it returned to a stop in just 52.7 seconds, but its arch rival, the Hyundai Elantra N, did it in 47.0 seconds.
