Experience exhilarating performance behind the wheel of the 2025 Honda Civic Type R, now available at Barber Honda in Bakersfield, CA. This hot hatch is engineered to thrill driving enthusiasts with its potent powertrain, dynamic handling, and aggressive styling.
Turbocharged Engine Delivers 315 Horsepower
At the heart of the Civic Type R is a 2.0-liter turbocharged 4-cylinder engine pumping out an impressive 315 horsepower. With VTEC variable valve timing, direct injection and a drive-by-wire throttle system, this powerplant provides instant response and linear power delivery. The unique triple-outlet center exhaust emits a spine-tingling sound as the tachometer climbs toward redline.
6-Speed Manual Gearbox for Ultimate Control
A 6-speed manual transmission is the only option in the Type R, giving the driver full command over the turbo engine's output. The transmission features a rev-matching system for perfectly timed downshifts, along with a helical limited-slip differential for maximum traction. Plus, an integrated LED shift light indicator and customizable drive modes let you tailor the driving experience to your liking.
High-Performance Chassis Tuning
To harness the engine's power, the Civic Type R boasts a track-tuned chassis. Adaptive dampers provide exceptional poise and control, while front-wheel drive with dual-axis strut suspension maximizes traction. Beefy 13.8-inch front and 12.0-inch rear Brembo brake rotors clamped by 4-piston aluminum calipers shed speed with confidence. 265/30ZR19 performance tires wrapped around 19x9.5-inch matte black wheels put the power to the pavement.
Exclusive Sport Styling & Cockpit
The 2025 Honda Civic Type R looks the part of a hot hatch with its aggressive front bumper, vented hood, flared fenders and rear wing spoiler. Inside the cockpit, high-bolstered sport seats with red stitching hold you snugly in place during spirited driving. A serialized Type R plaque on the dash denotes this as a special machine.
