最近谍照记者拍到了下一代本田思域Type R掀背车照片，该车很可能将在2017年发布。现行版思域Type R几个月前刚刚上市，但从照片看，新一代车型早就开始开发。虽然目前无法确定这就是量产版车型，但从照片看，该车采用三排气尾管一字排开，中间的一个较小，两边的较大，有点类似法拉利458 Italia。目前谈论该车动力系统还为时过早，但该车很可能搭载改进版的2.0升涡轮增压引擎，现行版搭载的引擎功率228千瓦/310马力，扭矩400牛米。最新报道称，本田计划推出一款性能更温和一些的Type S版本，该车很可能搭载新开发的1.5升涡轮增压引擎，功率略高于200马力，而标准版功率为175马力。如果真是这样，那么这款Type S将比Type R更早推出。

 

Next-gen Honda Civic Type R hatchback test mule spied with triple exhaust pipes

Our spies have sent us a new batch of images with the next generation Honda Civic Type R likely coming out in 2017.

 

The current Civic Type R went on sale just a few months ago, but these spy images show work is already well underway on its successor as this test mule has been spotted stretching out on the Nordschleife. We are not entirely certain the car has all the production bits and pieces, but we do notice this is a hatchback with a triple exhaust pipe setup featuring two bigger outer pipes and a smaller central pipe, just like on the Ferrari 458 Italia.

 

It's too early to talk about what will power the new model, but it could be an evolution of the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine inside the current Civic Type R where it churns 310 PS (228 kW) and 400 Nm (295 lb-ft). A recent report indicates Honda has plans to launch a warm Type S version which will likely utilize the newly developed 1.5-liter turbo which will likely have a little over 200 PS taking into account the standard configuration of the engine is estimated to deliver 175 PS. If we were to make a logical assumption, the Civic Type S will be out before the full-blown Type R.
