Attention at the SUPER GT venue, new Civic Type R wearing powerful aero | Response (Response.jp)

A new model that made its world premiere on July 21Hondacivic type r’. A new model with a genuine aero accessory that aggressively pursues functionality has appeared at Fuji Speedway where the 5th round of SUPER GT is being held.

The old Civic Type R had a powerful design, but the new model has a rounded shape. However, the front has a blister fender shape that emphasizes the width of the car, and it seems that it has evolved not only in styling but also in aerodynamics.

The new Civic Type R, which has received much attention and is equipped with genuine accessories, has appeared at the event plaza of Fuji Speedway where the SUPER GT GT Round 5 FUJIMAKI GROUP FUJI GT100LAP RACE will be held from August 6th to 7th.

In the new Civic Type R, the factory-fitted rear spoiler has been attracting attention since immediately following the world premiere, and it seems that the aerodynamic effect is also high. A genuine option rear spoiler was prepared to further improve the aerodynamic characteristics.

In the development of this tailgate spoiler, the Honda Access Modulo X series’ “effective aerodynamic aero” development team also participated in the development of this tailgate spoiler.

The development team of the Modulo X series, which has improved the aerodynamic performance from the speed of everyday use and improved the ride, has actually repeated the run many times while scraping the clay and style foam, and finely correcting the details.

In the new Civic Type R, the jagged part called the effective aerodynamic device installed on the bottom of the spoiler is deployed on the bottom of the tailgate spoiler. It seems that the air flowing under the spoiler is rectified together with the raised part of the spoiler top surface.

By using real carbon and red polyester twill weave, it is not a black carbon pattern, but a slightly reddish carbon pattern, which is an unprecedented finish. On the exterior, red door mirror covers and visors were also installed.

The interior is equipped with real carbon x red polyester twill weave interior carbon, original shift knob, side garnish and center console box, etc. to produce a high quality and sporty feel.

The Civic Type R, which had yet to be seen, attracted a lot of attention at the circuit.
