2021 Honda Civic Type R facelift arrives in Indonesia

Following a year of its debut,  the facelifted Honda Civic Type R now makes its official arrival at the showrooms of Indonesia. The car that has been teasing its arrival for over a year now finally marks its sales, starting at a price tag of IDR 1.177 billion (SGD 91,700).

Being one of the biggest offerings for 2021 by the automaker, the car is expected to bring forward a change in the segment. Buyers can notice the facelifted version of Honda’s most successful offering now gets minor tweaks across its exterior. 

The revised body modifications in the 2021 Civic Type-R include the addition of body-colored fins, adding to the aggressiveness and functionality of the car. The large faux air intakes, incorporated with the vents on the front and rear bumpers of the car make it more like an aggressive beast. 

Further, buyers can also notice significant changes on the grille as it is now reshaped, promoting a better cooling of the 2.0L turbocharged VTEC engine. The powerful mill churns out a maximum power output of 306 hp, besides giving out a maximum torque of up to 400 Nm. 

Inside, the drivers now have access to three drive modes – Comfort, Sport, and +R. All the modes ensure premium performance, adding to the joy of driving.  However, that’s not it, the revised functionality inside the cabin now allows the Type R to enjoy an Active Sound Control function, generating an interior sound as per the drive mode. 

Further, the interior of the car also notices an all-new setting of the Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, along with a new shifter that features a restyled knob and shorter shift throws.

Safety-wise, the facelifted Civic Type R gets a new two-piece brake rotor and brake pads, engineered to reduce fade and improve the braking efficiency. 

Lastly, with the car making its arrival in Indonesia, it’s only a matter of time until it arrives in Singapore.
