It is difficult to believe this, but nearly two years have passed since Honda re -revived the name of an introduction with a concept car in the Tokyo Auto Salon 2023. The sixth generation model has later evolved to a The initial model near production For the Goodwood Festival this year, and now it’s about the show in Japan. The launch of the local market is closed in September, before the coupe sports arriving at the United States dealers in early 2026. Europe is also scheduled to reach next year.
To fed its generated board, Honda I created the so -called “joke page”, where we stumbled in an interesting statement. Apparently, the reason for building a coupe was “detecting the inherent demand for the ideal sports car.” Tomoyuki Yamagami, the project, claims that the project did not actually start with the aim of reviving the name of the introduction. However, the company eventually chose the dust of the title that has been sleeping since 2001.

As for what Honda means through a “ideal sports car”, we believe it indicates a mix of performance and practical application. the introduction CIVIC TYPE R devices Like the front axis of the double axis and the Brembo front brakes, with divided back seats, underground storage, lifting. Unlike CTR and Acura Integra, the most elegant, it will be hybrid, so fuel efficiency should be better.
Honda insists that it is more than just a civilian coupe, promoting “large diameter tires and an improved wheelbase.” Its design is inspired by a sailing plane and aims to inspect other electric performance models. We have removed the Prelude website for seizure of each image that we can find, while showing the hybrid coupe from all angles.
It gives the impression that it is more than a three -door civilian with an oblique roof line, but the interior images show a limited space for back passengers. The topic of the most beautiful tone that does not extend to the rear seats is a clear sign of reducing costs, but it is in 2025, so it may not be very surprised because the whole bench is black.

We still have to wait until September to obtain full technical specifications. However, the manual gearbox does not expect. The new introduction will only have a pedal and SHIFT S+ mode with mujamaf changes to simulate gear changes, which is likely similar to the Nyndai Natch but with the actual gasoline engine. It is not CVT, so there is hope for an attractive drive even without a stick turning with only anterior payment layout.
As for power, Civil hybrid 200 hp and 232 lb (315 Nm dead) are made of torque from a 2.0 -liter gas engine associated with two electric two engines. There is hope that the introduction to these numbers will improve in view of their sporty position. Honda is also expected to charge a installment, so it is possible that the pricing of the CIVIC 2026 hybrid hatchback, which starts from $ 31,645 before the options.
Certainly, a new introduction will not be a path that focuses on the path. Honda has already stated that “this will not be Sports, Zippiest car This will be thrown into the circles. ”It is marketed as a real global model, with the same design and specifications in all markets of the world where the car will be sold.
Reports from Japan are already speculative that the hot type S and even type R derivatives are present in the pipeline. But even if these people happen, you do not expect to see them any time soon. Not a standard introduction has been launched yet, and it will not make sense to diversify the squad early in the product life cycle.
