deals with Europe yet. But, thanks to the different pace that new cars are launched around the world, we can tell you what it feels like in America. Spoiler alert: it’s bloody good.
The story is one of minor differences: a 35mm stretch in length, a 25kg increase in mass and a body structure claimed to be 15 percent stiffer. The American version has been given a small increase in power, with Honda now quoting a peak of 316hp from the K20C1 engine. But that’s just lifted it to the same figure that the FK8 made in Europe.
The driving experience runs with the narrative of incremental improvement. The engine fires into the same bass-heavy idle as the last Type R, and that gearlever moves with the same tactile precision, although the clutch bites relatively high. Steering is very direct with just 2.1 turns between locks. At lower speeds the power assistance feels a bit short on both weight and feedback, but it quickly improves as loadings increase.
