Honda Civic Type R EP3

The Honda Civic Type R EP3 is a performance hatchback that combines everyday usability with the sharp edge of a true driver’s car. Built in the early 2000s, it marked a bold evolution in the Type R lineage, offering a modern design, refined interior, and the same thrilling VTEC experience enthusiasts love.

At its core is the 2.0L i-VTEC K20A engine, producing up to 200 horsepower and a screaming 8,000 rpm redline. Paired with a slick 6-speed manual transmission, the EP3 delivers crisp gear changes and strong mid-range power, making it incredibly engaging to drive.

The EP3 features a stiffer chassis, sport-tuned suspension, and a helical limited-slip differential for confident cornering and exceptional front-end grip. Lightweight construction and sharp steering response give it a nimble, agile feel on both winding roads and track days.

Inside, the cabin balances sportiness with comfort. It features supportive bucket seats, red Type R trim, aluminum pedals, and a center-mounted gear shifter positioned for quick, race-inspired shifts. The Honda Civic Type R EP3 is a hot hatch that delivers raw, focused performance with everyday practicality.
