Honda to Debut the New Civic Si at the L.A. Auto Show

honda to debut the new civic si at the l.a. auto show – DOC545665

Sport compact fans have been blessed with a ton of fantastic products over the last few years, with models like the Subaru WRX, Volkswagen Golf R, Toyota 86, Mini Cooper S, Fiat 500 Sport, and Mazda MX-5 all proving that big fun can be had in small packages. Joining the party is the new Civic Type R, which just debuted in prototype guise at the 2016 Paris Motor Show. Stateside buyers will be happy to know that the ‘Ring-storming, R’d-out tenth-gen Civic will indeed make it to U.S. dealers, but what if you want something a little less over the top? Honda has an answer, and it’s called the Civic Si. For now, details on the mid-ranger are still under wraps, but that’ll soon change, as it was just confirmed that the new Civic Si will make its formal public debut next month at the Los Angeles Motor Show.

Breaking the news (perhaps unintentionally) is a single line in a recent L.A. Auto Show press release, which lists the Si as of many upcoming debuts slated to drop cover at the event. And while official specs are still forthcoming, a little speculation couldn’t hurt.

First off, we know the powerplant will be turbocharged, and will most likely be the same 1.5-liter four-cylinder currently outfitted on the more pedestrian Civic variants. Those models get 174 horsepower, but we think the Si will sport around 225 ponies, all of which will get routed to the front axle by way of a six-speed manual transmission.

The body style is bit more uncertain, but with the recent reveal of the tenth-gen Civic hatchback, an Si five-door seems likely. Also look for swoopy, sporty styling, with an aggression level somewhere around 5, as opposed to the Type R’s 11.

Major debuts at the 2016 Los Angeles Auto Show are scheduled to kick off Wednesday, November 16th, continuing into Thursday, November 17. Stay tuned, as we’ll be on the scene bringing you the latest as it happens.

Note: 2014 – 2015 Civic Si shown above.

Why It Matters

The new Si is a nice addition to the lineup for L.A. It’ll be a great primer for U.S. audiences salivating at the thought of owning a new Type R, and it’ll give more rational buyers a solid option in the segment as well.

I’m fairly certain 225 horsepower from a 1.5-liter turbo four is all but certain for this model, which really just leaves the styling up in the air. The Type R prototype that debuted in Paris is a wild thing to look at, which makes sense for the nameplate, but all that aggression left a sour taste in the mouth of many. And that’s totally okay – not everyone loves the boy racer aesthetic.

So that leaves the Si to occupy the middle ground, which should be an interesting balancing act for Honda’s designers.

Check back in November for more.

Honda Civic MkIV vs Honda Civic MkII

The Honda Civic Type-R has always had something about it – a desire not to follow the crowd. For three generations it plied its trade as a high-revving VTEC nutter, bringing a taste of 8,000rpm to those who couldn’t afford a flat-plane-crank Ferrari V8. Now though, in its fourth iteration, it’s traded rpms for a turbo, more shove and better fuel economy. Question is, by boarding the forced-induction bandwagon, has Honda sullied the Type-R name – a badge only deemed worthy to adorn 10 models in total to date?

Photography: Rowan Horncastle

We have here a pristine MkII Civic Type-R – or EP3 to any forum fans out there – and the latest Type-R. There is no MkI present as that was a Japan-only model, and no MkIII as that used the same 198bhp 2.0 DOHC i-VTEC engine as the MkII, albeit wrapped in a much wedgier suit. And where better to start than the styling, because these two relatives couldn’t look more different if they tried.

The older of the two is a model of restraint, all mill-pond-smooth surfaces with only a flick along the side skirts and an apologetic boot spoiler, whereas the new one is busier than Barack Obama. Seriously, it looks as though a small child scribbled on the final design sketches, yet they still received approval from the board. Perhaps in the absence of a screaming VTEC engine, Honda felt obligated to make the Type-R stand out visually? If so, it succeeded all too well.

The skin isn’t the only recipient of Honda’s incessant fiddling; the engine, handling and aerodynamics were played with until a 306bhp, 165mph monster capable of lapping the Nürburgring in 7m 50.63s emerged.

You can feel that capability in everything the new Type-R does – the way the engine sounds and revs is a bit of a non-event, but the way it builds speed is staggering. Then you tip into a corner and it just sticks, stays spirit-level flat and carries huge chunks of momentum with ease. Whoever set that lap in Germany had taken their brave pills, no doubt, but they had the tool for the job.

By comparison, the EP3 is a delicate flower, the steering is much lighter but weights up nicely as the cornering forces increase, then slackens off again when you start to understeer. No matter, because delicate lifts of the throttle are all you need to trim your line and perfect your trajectory, before wringing the engine down the next straight. The seats are perfect, and that dash-mounted gearlever operates with a hugely satisfying snap, but it’s the engine that defines everything this car does. Throttle pick-up is pin-sharp, and it just revs and revs until you’re wincing, certain a piston is about to bust through the bonnet, and then it revs some more.

It’s not a tuneful engine, merely more boomy as you approach the red line, so perhaps we shouldn’t be so harsh on the new one’s Dyson-inspired soundtrack. Keep things sensible, and it’s smooth and quiet enough to pootle around in, too, and with good ones going for as little as £7k, now’s the time to take the plunge.

The sad conclusion is that the Civic Type-R family peaked when the EP3 launched in 2001. The latest version is still a stand-out hot hatch and immensely capable when you chuck it around in the right conditions (preferably a dry racetrack) but some of the everyday joy has been traded for ultimate speed. We hear a new NSX Type-R is waiting in the wings – with a bit of luck that can get the Type-R badge back where it belongs.

Honda Civic Type R sets FWD record at 5 iconic racetracks

2015 Honda Civic Type R sets front-wheel-drive benchmark for five iconic racetracks

Honda’s Civic Type R is one of the fastest hot hatches in the world, despite it skipping an all-wheel-drive system and sticking with a good ol’ manual transmission.

The current generation, powered by a 305-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder, made its debut in 2015 and although it isn’t on sale in the United States its successor, which has been spotted testing, is due here soon.

Engineers of the next-generation Civic Type R have a great base to build from as the current car has just clocked in some impressive benchmarks for five of the most iconic racetracks in Europe, four of which feature on the Formula One calendar. The times are the current records for a production car with front-wheel drive.

Honda says it was inspired to take up the challenge after its Civic Type R set a time of 7:50.63 at the Nürburgring a year ago, a time Volkswagen surpassed this year with its new GTI Clubsport S (the new front-wheel-drive record stands at 7:49.21). No doubt Honda was also partly inspired by Dodge’s Viper ACR which last year set production car records at 13 racetracks across North America.

Below are the five racetracks where the Honda Civic Type R currently holds lap records for a production car with front-wheel drive, and the name of the driver in each instance. There’s also a video for each attempt.

Silverstone: 2:31.85, set by Matt Neal

Spa-Francorchamps: 2:56.91, set by Rob Huff

Monza: 2:15.16, set by Norbert Michelisz

Estoril: 2:4.08, set by Bruno Correia

Hungaroring: 2:10.85, set by Norbert Michelisz

Why Buy A Brand New Acura When The RSX Was So Good?

Why even wait for a new Civic Si when the RSX is so good?

We like to think that we have made a lot of progress in the last decade, and for the most part, we have. Cars have far better technology than they did back in 2006, improving usability, drivability, safety, and comfort. However, in some unique cases, this progress really hasn’t been perfect. We have looked at a few cases like the M3 and ZL1 Camaro where the new model was certainly improved, but not enough to justify the price difference of a used one. Now we will take a look at a car company that commits this offense to the extreme, Acura.

Why Buy A Brand New Acura When The RSX Was So Good?

Why Buy A Brand New Acura When The RSX Was So Good?

Back in 2006, Acura discontinued the RSX, which we believe was one of the biggest mistakes the company has ever made. Even when you look at Acura’s lineup today, there isn’t much that would make you say “wow, that is a world beater!” The RSX had some stiff competition back in 2006, including the Volkswagen GTI, Subaru WRX, and even its corporate cousin the Civic Si. All of these cars lived on, yet the RSX was killed off. So, was this a good decision? Back in 2006, an RSX Type-S came with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder V-Tech engine producing 201 horsepower. Today, the RSX’s descendant, the 2015 Civic Si, comes with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder V-Tech engine producing 205 horsepower. What a difference a decade makes! Nine years later and Honda was only able squeeze another four horsepower out of an even bigger engine. Yes, we know that the 2.4-liter K24 engine has a little more torque than the old K20 engine, but it also doesn’t rev as high (7,000 rpm compared to 8,000 rpm) and it doesn’t have the same soul. Even fuel economy is only marginally improved. When you look at the Civic‘s $22,890 price tag, a used RSX Type-S seems like a serious bargain. You can spend even more money on a 2016 Acura ILX, which has the same K24 engine as the Si with the same power. However, this combination will set you back almost $28 grand, and that is before options! All for what is still not as good as a ten-year-old hatchback.

Why Buy A Brand New Acura When The RSX Was So Good?

Sure, in the ILX you can get a fancy dual-screen display and passive entry with push-button start, but loading the car up with options will set you back over $30,000. You can find a 2006 RSX Type-S with less than 50,000 miles for less than $12,000. You won’t get Bluetooth and app support, but buy a $600 head unit that has these features and laugh at the people who spend $30,000 on a car with four extra horsepower. And, since the RSX is about 200 pounds lighter than an ILX, and available with a manual transmission, we bet it is probably just as fast as the new car. It is even more practical too! Yes, the ILX and Civic can be had with four doors, but neither comes with the enormous hatch of the RSX. The RSX is a seriously good first car or college ride. It can sit four people with plenty of comfort and you will have no problem moving yourself and all of your crap without renting an SUV. With prices hovering around $10,000 to $12,000 for a nice example, we have to wonder, why would you ever buy an ILX or Civic Si?

2016 Honda Civic 1.5L Turbo Dyno'd Pumping Out A Surprising 177hp, 190lb-ft

The new turbocharged, 2016 Honda Civic EX has proven itself to be faster than the old Civic Si in a straight line and now we have an idea why; it pumps up 177 hp and 190 lb-ft of torque at the axles. The crew over at Hondata, who just happened to stage the aforementioned EX vs Si race, recently hooked up the new hatchback to their set of dynapacks to see why the new car is so surprisingly punchy. With 177 hp and 190 lb-ft being recorded at the axles, the tuning company’s Civic 1.5T proved quite a bit more powerful than the 174 hp and 162 lb-ft which Honda itself quotes. However, given that the Civic tested was fitted with a CVT transmission, returning accurate horsepower and torque numbers can prove difficult. Additionally, the car has a torque converter which can contribute to higher torque figures when measured through dynapacks. While these figures are impressive for an entry-level model, the horsepower figure is still some way behind the 205 hp offered up by the 2015 Civic Si. Despite that, a later test from Hondata down the eighth-mile discovered that the new Civic EX is actually 0.2 of a second faster, perfectly displaying the benefits of forced induction and the extra torque it provides.
