2018 Honda Civic Type R:
The all-new Honda Civic Type R has been engineered from the ground up to deliver the most rewarding driving experience in the hot hatch segment - both on road and on the race track. Newly engineered from the ground up, the Type R was developed in parallel with the new standard Civic hatchback, with mutual benefits to the dynamics and refinement of both variants. It retains the heritage of Honda's high-performance hatchback bloodline, combining the purity of front-wheel-drive chassis dynamics with aggressive design and finely-honed aerodynamics. A new single-mass flywheel coupled with the slick six-speed manual gearbox reduces clutch inertia weight by 25%, and combines with a 7% lower final gear ratio to enhance response under acceleration. The gearbox's rev-matching function smooths shifts, eliminating undesirable transmission 'shock' associated with excessive or insufficient revving. The rev-matching function further enhances the joy of driving a manual transmission sports car. A lightweight, highly rigid bodyshell - the product of innovative new engineering and construction techniques - complements the lower centre of gravity and a sophisticated new suspension system, contributing directly to the car's rewarding dynamics. An advanced Dual-Axis Strut Front Suspension system reduces torque steer and enhances on-the-limit cornering and steering feel. At the rear, Type R's new multi-link suspension enhances ride comfort as well as high speed stability.
2018 Hyundai i30N:
The i30 N is Hyundai Motor's first high-performance car under the N line-up. Built on the New Generation i30, the i30 N has been developed from the ground up to deliver maximum driving pleasure in everyday life on the road, as well as on the track. N was born in Namyang, at Hyundai Motor's global R&D Centre in Korea and honed at the Nürburgring, one of the most challenging race tracks in the world and home of Hyundai's Testing Center. The N logo symbolises a chicane - the ultimate corner where the i30 N has been tested thoroughly and has proven its ability. The i30 N is inspired by Hyundai Motorsport's experience in WRC since 2014. "The Hyundai i30 N has been developed for no other purpose than to deliver maximum driving fun to our customers in an accessible high-performance package," says Albert Biermann, Executive Vice President Performance Development and High Performance Vehicle Division. "With the high-performance N models we will enhance our brand's appeal with emotional products that cater to the needs of people who love to have a smile on their face when they drive their car on a winding road and listen to the sound of the engine. That's why we measure high-performance in BPM, heart beats per minute instead of only RPM." The i30 N is Hyundai Motor's answer to emerging customer preferences towards uncompromising innovation and technology-driven performance. Due to be launched across Europe by the end of 2017, the All-New i30 N is made for driving enthusiasts. The i30 N sports a unique character and coherent, timeless design - which includes the Cascading Grille - the new Hyundai signature - at the frontThis is characterised by a downward tapering gesture inspired by the flow of molten steel...
