The Honda Civic Type R is the highest performance version of the Honda Civic made by Honda Motor Company of Japan.
The first Civic to receive the Type R badge (based on the 6th-generation 'EK' Civic) was introduced in August 1997, as the EK9. The B16B engine boasted one of the highest power output per litre of all time for a naturally-aspirated engine with 185 PS (136 kW; 182 hp) from 1.6L of engine displacement. The interior featured red seats, red door cards, red Type R floor mats, a titanium shift knob, and a Momo leather-wrapped steering wheel.
There are several modifications of Honda Civic EK9 released from 1997 to 2000.
