Total confidence

Safety is the most important aspect in racing for us. How can a driver be asked to perform to the best of his ability if he is not completely confident in his vehicle’s safety capabilities?

Safety is paramount at Honda, that’s why we built our own test facility at Tochigi, the biggest most advanced, indoor crash test centre in the world. Here, we’ve been able to develop safety features that are so effective, you would hardly know they’re there and to be honest, we hope you never have to experience them in action. But knowing they’re there and how they work means you can enjoy the driving experience even more. Thanks to upgraded Honda Civic Type R calipers you can hit your desired speed, apply the brakes and come to a complete stop by the time you finish reading this sentence.

Honda Civic Type R safety features include:

• Front, side and curtain airbags
• ISOfix anchorage for child seat
• Electronic Brake force Distribution (EBD)
• Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
• Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA)
• Brake Assist (BA)
