    Next-Gen Honda Civic Type R Could Be A 300 kW AWD Hybrid

    A new report from Japan claims the 2022 Honda Civic Type R will adopt hybrid power in its next-generation, in a move that will also turn Honda’s current front-drive hot-four to an all-wheel-drive rocket.

    Best Car Web is reporting that the 2022 Civic Type R will pair the current 2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder petrol with a duo of electric motors over the rear axle.

    This hybridised Type R could end up delivering as much as 400 hp which is close enough to 300 kW.

    This report does have some substance to it too as a Civic Type R development mule was believed to be running an electrified powertrain.

    This would be a huge leap in performance for Honda’s hot-four, which currently displaces 228 kW and 400 Nm. It’s not known whether the replacement would carry-over the current model’s slick six-speed manual transmission but we wouldn’t hold our breath for that.

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
