The Honda Civic Type R FLA turned heads by breaking the FK8 speed record on the renowned Suzuka Circuit in Japan. It’s slightly wider, longer, and lower than its predecessor, with a touch more horsepower and torque. It’s a performance-focused machine and a perfect fit for the Verus lineup. Here are some highlights of the new FL5:

  • Wheelbase and track widths have increased by 36mm and 15mm, respectively
  • The outer shell is 15% stiffer due to the use of adhesives in construction
  • Power and torque have increased to 315 hp and 310 lb-ft, respectively, up 9 hp and 15 lb-ft over the FK8.
  • Lighter flywheel reduces inertia off the end of the engine by 25%

This front-wheel-drive, six-speed manual sets the standard for hot hatchbacks. You’ll see why when you get behind the wheel of this lively machine. And when you upgrade with Verus, you’ll enjoy even more performance.
