These two photos posted to Autocar reveal the new Civic Type R in great detail and confirm the car will closely match the “prototype” version Honda has been trotting out at major auto shows over the past year. No information accompanied the photos in the leak but we already know a lot about the car. It will feature a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-4 paired to a 6-speed manual, and drive will be to the front wheels only. Expect the engine to match or exceed the 305...

Prototype vehicles are often shown just a few months ahead of the on-sale date and the changes between them and the production vehicles are usually minor.
