The Honda Civic Type R TCR is a racing car built on the basis of the TCR rules established in 2015, which is included in the World Touring Car Cup under the direction of the FIA.

[1][2] The first Civic Type R TCR was built on the ninth generation Honda Civic and debuted in the TCR International Series in 2015, until the end of 2017, including Gianni Morbidelli, Roberto Colciago and Attila Tassi racing with machines developed by JAS Motorsport, the last two riders fought for the individual championship title (as a teammate) in the 2017 season, with Tassi finishing in second place behind Jean-Karl Vernay, while Colciago finished fifth in the overall standings, their team won by the teams led by Norbert Michelisz and David Bári.

The thoroughly revised version introduced in 2017 is based on the street version of the tenth generation Civic – which later set a lap record on the Nürburgring Nordschleife[4] – but has been modified at several points on the street model body to reduce air resistance and greater clamping force.

The car is based on the narrower FK7 Civic chassis as it was deemed to suit the demands of the formula better than the wider FK8 chassis of the road-going Type R.[5] A new multi-link rear suspension and modified stabilizer have been used, a state-of-the-art electronic control unit (ECU) and an improved roll bar have been installed.

[6] An endurance version of the car was also made for customers in long-distance races; this edition was equipped with headlights and an air intake system to cool the driver, as well as brakes complete with ABS.
