I know this isn’t a Toyota, but it deserves some kudos. The new Civic Type R has been released and it has very nice specs.
1267 kilo kurb weight is just excellent combined with 201ps NA engine, that’s plenty of grunt….plus 31mpg.
On a twisty back road it’ll be excellent and with it’s small dimensions, great for town driving, albeit a hard ride with sports suspension and 18″ rims.
Not being a turbo and FWD means tuning the power isn’t going to be cheap or productive. Still, if you want a fast hot hatch with good fuel economy this is definitely a great car.
