Honda Varis Civic Type R specifications

The real Honda Varis Civic Type R

The Varis Civic is based on the standard Type R and differs essentially only in its extensive body kit. The fifth Type R generation of the Honda Civic is available since spring 2017.

The Honda Civic Type R offers a spectacular driving experience both on the road and on the race track.
The two-liter turbo engine with 320 HP provides 400 Newton meters of torque. Thanks to these specifications, acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is now 5.7 seconds, while the top speed of 272 km/h makes the Honda Civic Type R the fastest vehicle with the best acceleration in its class! The six-speed manual transmission in the Honda Civic Type R FK8 features a new Rev-Match system, which is used to hit the right speed when shifting down via an intermediate throttle.

Optimized driving modes also make the Honda fit for a wide variety of scenarios: In the future, drivers will be able to choose between “Comfort”, “Sport” and the racetrack-compatible “+R” mode and use them as required. In each mode, the adaptive damper system, the steering force, the gear change and the response of the vehicle are adapted. All in all, a amazing little car.

The Honda Varis Civic Type R can fit 77 Fusion parts, so far nothing special. The Varis should run 7.669s.

This means that the Varis outclasses the previous leader of the T3 class, the BMW Z4 M40i, by more than 0.150s. In short, the T3 class will be exciting again.

Can I use the regular Honda Civic Type R for Seasons 97 Prestige Cup?

Unfortunately not. You need to pull the Varis Civic from Rare Imports. It will cost you some silver keys to get it. The regular Type R is a Tier 2 car, the Varis is in Tier 3.

Can I use Stage 6 parts from the regular Civic Type R?

Again, the answer is unfortunately no. The Varis Civic is treated as a completely independent car in CSR2 and shares only the Fusion parts with other Honda vehicles.

Is the Varis easy to drive?

It is quite easy to set fast times with the Varis, but a perfect start is a small challenge. Mostly you start with way too much wheel spin.
