Mugen Civic Type R Launched

Honda today released an enhanced new car, the limited edition Civic Type R featuring exclusive MUGEN equipment will go on sale through Honda dealers in the UK in April.

Inspired by MUGEN Euro’s high-performance Type R, the MUGEN  is fitted with unique body parts, wheels and badges to give it stand-out looks. As its name suggests, only 200 of the special Type R models will be made.

On top of the standard features of the Swindon-built Type R (which of course, include Honda’s 201PS, screaming i-VTEC engine) the MUGEN will boast the following:

  • Exclusive MUGEN front and rear bumpers with skirts
  • 19-inch alloy wheels in ‘Lightning’ design
  • MUGEN rear badge
  • MUGEN Limited Edition number plaque out of 200
  • Limited Slip Differential
  • Championship White exterior paint
  • Gloss black door mirrors

A range of tuning parts, to further enhance the chassis dynamics of the Type R, will also be available as dealer fit options.

Original MUGEN tuning parts available

From April, a network of Honda dealers will also offer an exclusive range of original MUGEN tuning parts for Type R owners to use to modify their own cars – both used and new. These parts will be available to buy from a number of selected dealers across the UK, and will offer a range of tuning and cosmetic parts, including sports suspension upgrades, lightweight wheels and interior trim.
