Cel mai interesant propulsor din linia noii game este dieselul de 1.6 litri i-DTEC care dezvoltă 160 CP și 350 Nm. Acesta îl înlocuiește pe bătrânul 2.2 i-DTEC și aduce cu el nu doar consum și emisii excelente pentru un model de aceste dimensiuni - circa 5.4 litri/100 km și 130 grame CO2/km, îmbunătățiri de peste 10% față de anteriorul motor - ci și o nouă cutie automată cu 9 trepte, Honda intrând astfel în cercul select al constructorilor care oferă această opțiune pe modelele lor. În standard, motorul diesel de 1.6 litri și 160 CP va fi echipat cu o cutie manuală cu șase rapoarte.
Celălalt diesel din gama CR-V, un 1.6 i-DTEC de 120 CP, va rămâne în echiparea versiunii 2x4 a modelului japonez."Benzine" noi de 1.5 și 1.3 litri
Celelalte două noutăți Honda la nivel de motorizări vizează apariția a două unități pe benzină. Prima dintre acestea va echipa viitorul HR-V, SUV compact pe care constructorul asiatic îl anunță la Paris sub forma unui concept. Este vorba de un 1.5 i-VTEC care poate fi combinat fie cu o cutie manuală, fie cu una semiautomată CVT. Honda nu a publicat informații legate de specificațiile acestui nou motor, acestea urmând să fie cunoscute în cursul anului 2015, în jurul datei de lansare.
Coborâm puțin în gamă pentru a face cunoștință cu noua generație Honda Jazz și cu al său motor pe benzină i-VTEC de 1.3 litri, ale cărui date tehnice sunt de asemenea ținute sub secret de niponi. Știm însă că și acest motor va dispune de opțiunea unei transmisii CVT pe lângă cea manuală cu șase trepte.
benzinarele sunt aspirate sau vor fi supraalimentate?
vtec kicked in yo!
1.5 are 131 CP si 1.3 are cel mai probabil 100 CP.
Din pacate nu au pus 1.0 (cca 120 CP) sau 1.5 Turbo (cca. 180 CP)anuntate (a ramas insa 2.0 Turbo pe noul Civic Type R)

Honda Civic Type R
All-new Honda Civic Type R: unrivalled against the brand’s iconic performance flagship models
Unmatched performance compared to all previous Type R cars, including Civic, Integra, Accord and NSX
Thrilling turbocharged 2.0 litre i-VTEC engine producing more than 280 PS, sets new standards on power, torque and engine response
All-new ‘+R’ mode for enhanced on-track driving thrills
High-revving performance red-lining at 7,000 rpm, mated to slick-shifting six-speed manual transmission
Innovative new four-point adaptive damper system delivers ultimate handling for enthusiastic driving
Additional ‘steer axis’ system minimises torque steer for exceptional traction
Striking luminous blue Type R Concept model shown on Honda stand
With the automotive world about to descend on the 2014 Mondial de l’Automobile, Honda has released exciting new details about its eagerly anticipated Civic Type R.
The all-new hot hatch – due in European showrooms next year – will be the most extreme Type R yet, signalling the start of a new performance era for the brand.
Power will come from a 2.0-litre i-VTEC engine from Honda’s Earth Dreams Technology series. Developing over 280 PS, it will deliver unmatched performance compared to any previous Type R car. That includes all generations of the Civic, plus the iconic performance-oriented versions of the Integra, Accord and even the NSX.
While complying with strict Euro 6 emissions regulations, this is a Honda Type R powerplant like no other. While its predecessors were naturally aspirated, the new unit benefits from a turbocharger, boosting low-end power delivery. Combined with the high-end performance that’s synonymous with Honda’s VTEC technology – and much-loved by enthusiastic Type R owners – they will deliver a sensational driving experience.
Suehiro Hasshi, Large Project Leader for the Civic Type R at Honda R&D, commented: “Honda has had four Type R model derivatives – the Civic, Integra, Accord and NSX. The engine in this new Honda Civic Type R is unrivalled against all of them in terms of raw power, torque and engine response.”
Hasshi-san emphasised the car’s appeal will be far greater than a new high-performance engine under the bonnet. A number of engineering innovations and enhancements will make the new Civic Type R a true driver’s car, worthy of wearing the famous red ‘H’ badge.
For example, the Civic Type R will mark the debut of Honda’s new ‘+R’ button. Located to the side of the steering wheel, once pressed it activates ‘+R‘ mode for the most exhilarating driving experience. The engine response is heightened, with torque-mapping changed to a more aggressive and performance-focused setting. Steering becomes more responsive and, together with the new four-point Adaptive Damper System, delivers the ultimate handling experience.
Hasshi explained: “In default standard mode, the Civic Type R is exceptionally agile, an everyday sports car with an enjoyable and fluid acceleration. The ‘+R’ button brings out a more dynamic and athletic car for the driver, to set pulses racing. The difference in character is immense. The ‘+R’ mode is extreme; the car is ideal for track use and will be appreciated by the genuine sports-driving enthusiast.”
Another example of Honda’s innovative approach is the car’s ‘steer axis’. In order to deliver the power of the turbocharged 2.0-litre i-VTEC engine, the new Civic Type R’s front suspension system includes this additional mechanical system involving two supporting ‘kingpins’. They minimise torque steer and allows the driver to fully exploit the car’s exceptional driveability.
Furthermore, a new four-point Adaptive Damper System has been developed specifically for the Civic Type R. It automatically adjusts the front and rear suspension damping force stiffness in a split second, based on driving conditions. This allows the new Civic Type R to provide a comfortable ride during cruising, yet become firm and agile when high-performance handling is required.
The new Civic Type R will follow in the footsteps of its predecessors with a six-speed manual transmission. The development team selected this option to maximise driving enjoyment.
Hasshi explained: “The manual transmission allows the drivers to select the gear they want, for example, down from fifth to third when approaching a corner. The concept of the new Civic Type R is to be the complete driver’s car so this was the best option.”
The all-new Civic Type R has been developed and engineered for European driving tastes. To be built at Honda’s state-of-the-art plant in Swindon, UK, it will arrive in dealerships during 2015.
To see the latest Honda Civic Type R Concept car, go to the Honda Stand in Hall 3, at the 2014 Mondial de l’Automobile. Honda’s press conference takes place on this stand at 16.45 CET on Thursday 2 October.

Honda Genuine Accessories
Honda brings latest styling and accessory options to Europe
Examples of 2014 Genuine Accessories range on display
Special ‘Black Edition’ models of popular Civic and CR-V take centre stage
New Honda 3D Sound add-on system delivers amazing depth of sound
Honda is showcasing new elements of its eye-catching 2014 Genuine Accessories range throughout the 2014 Mondial de l’Automobile in Paris, including the special ‘Black Edition’ variants of its popular Civic and CR-V models.
As part of its display in Hall 3, Honda is exhibiting a Civic fitted with the ‘Black Edition’ option pack which is now on sale across Europe. The pack includes gloss black front bumper extension, side skirts, rear spoiler and a rear bumper garnish.

Honda 3D Sound – “music never sounded so real”
Everybody wants a car sound system which can reproduce faithfully the music of their favourite artists. Now, through the addition of a compact DSP (digital signal processing) unit to the standard Honda sound system, owners can also enhance their listening experience to replicate different acoustic environments – for example, a technical studio sound or a live concert hall.
Honda’s new DSP unit analyses the sound output of the standard system and optimises the decibel output per frequency, per speaker channel. It tunes the time alignment of the four speaker channels independently, so it effectively adjusts the perceived distance between the driver and the car’s speakers as the journey unfolds.
Programmed to fully exploit the characteristics of the standard speakers and audio system and the car’s interior environment, the DSP will match its output to the ideal frequency response that is specific to each vehicle.
Honda 3D Sound will be available in European markets for 2015 models of the Civic, Civic Tourer and CR-V and for 2016 models of Jazz and the new HR-V equipped with Honda’s standard audio system.
Visitors to the Honda Genuine Accessories stand at the Mondial de l’Automobile can experience a depth of sound that has to be heard to be believed. The Honda 3D Sound can also be sampled by going to

Further information on the 2014 Genuine Accessories range will be available following Honda’s press conference at the Mondial de l‘Automobile in Paris in Hall 3, at 16.45 CET on Thursday 2 October.
Honda Racing
Honda’s First Formula One Car – the RA271
Honda is also using its appearance at the 2014 Mondial de l’Automobile to showcase its long history in Formula One with the RA271, the first Honda to race in F1, which made its debut at the German Grand Prix at the Nürburgring in 1964.
Symbolising Honda’s challenging spirit, the RA271 featured an all-new chassis, with a light alloy panel design, replacing the obsolete space frame concept employed on the RA270F test car. Development of this state-of-the-art aluminium monochrome chassis took the team into new territory, leading them to consult textbooks on aircraft technology to support their efforts. A key priority was to ensure optimum stability and weight distribution once the engine was mounted, and so, drawing upon its expertise in motorcycle production, Honda took the innovative choice of installing the V12 engine transversely in the chassis.
Honda had originally planned to paint its first made-for-racing F1 car in gold, to match the RA270F prototype. However gold had been assigned to South Africa by the FIA, so Honda elected to finish the car in ivory white accented with a red rising sun on the cowling.
