Get Set for the New Honda Civic Hatch at the Geneva Motor Show

Keen motor heads will all have their eyes on the upcoming Geneva Motor Show for the unveiling of the new Honda Civic Hatch model. The 2015 Type R Civic model concept will have its debut in Geneva, but Honda have allowed a sneak peek at the aesthetic looks with some released pictures of this stunning new model.

The Honda Civic Hatch has always had a sporty aesthetic, but the new Type R looks amazing. The concept drawings show futuristic stylistic touches to the rear, with the rear tail lights integrated into the sleek large spoiler. The model also makes a feature of the wheel arches and lower roof line to create a car that looks like its speeding along, even when parked. 

Of course, this is a concept sketch and Honda have not indicated how close in design the 2015 production model will be to these sketches. Generally, the body style shaping may be toned down a little in the production model, but it does highlight the direction Honda intend to take their popular Civic range.

This hot new hatch is not just about aesthetic appearance. The Type R has been confirmed as being powered with a 2.0 litre engine which will be turbo charged and capable of producing power in excess of 206 Kw. These figures suggest that the new model will have more power than the new Golf Gti, the Ford Focus ST and the Renault Megane RS. This should make the Honda a very desirable hot hatch. The power statistics will equal the Opal Astra OPC which also features a 2.0 litre turbo charged engine and produces 206 Kw of power. However, since the Opal is no longer offered in the Australian Market, it could mean that the 2015 new Honda Civic Hatch will be an uncontested hot hatch for power in Australia.

The new Honda Type R has been teasing potential buyers for months, with the model seen during tests on the track. However, during these outings the car was covered in black camouflage to keep the official unveiling dramatic. The body styling touches on the Type R will certainly gain mass approval. The pumped guards and new bumpers look sleek and produce clean lines which give the model real flare. While the giant rear spoiler with integrated lights may not make it into the production model, Honda will no doubt carry this design touch into the adapted design.

With the Honda Civic currently gaining very respectable sales figures, it is likely that the showcasing of the Type R concept will renew interest in this model even further. Keen motor heads will no doubt be waiting on the edge of their seat for the Geneva Motor Show and the additional details of the Type R it will bring.
