Debut: Geneva Motor Show
Appearance: To call it aggressive doesn’t really scratch the surface. The huge rear spoiler, steeply raked wedge shape and road-hugging stance all mean serious business.
Honda is predicting power output of as much as 300 bhp for the new Type R, and that body styling will generate helpful downforce.
Prediction: It’s definitely coming, and it’s almost certainly going to look exactly like this. The wheel options might be toned down a little, but if it’s going to live up to Honda’s ‘race car for the road’ billing then it’s going to have to stay on the extreme side of its rivals.
