2021 Civic Type R: Exterior Style
The exterior of the 2021 Honda Civic Type R comes with features designed to look good and improve your performance at the same time.
Take, for example, the underbody spoiler kit with Red striping, which will help control downward force and airflow to give you greater control and stability at high speeds. Even features like the wing spoiler and vortex generators will help reduce drag, while also contributing to the overall aesthetic of the Type R.
The center-mounted triple outlet exhaust gives your ride a deep growl to call attention to you everywhere you go and the Red Honda H Badge on the front and rear offer that hint of flair that will really make you stand out.
Inside the Cabin of the Civic Type R
You’ll certainly have fun behind the wheel of this sports car, and you’ll be comfortable, too. The Civic Type R comes standard with sport seats, so you’ll have the support you need to stay in place when taking hard turns.
It’s even spacious inside, with these interior dimensions:
| Front Row | Rear Row | |
| Head Room | 39.3 in | 37.4 in |
| Leg Room | 42.3 in | 35.9 in |
