| Engine start button

It's red, round and shiny. And it begs to be pushed. Fans and enthusiasts told Honda designers and engineers that the Civic Type R must have an engine start button, and of course Honda listened.


| Dual zone dash

This dash layout gives the driver the most essential information at the top of the fascia, with secondary information appearing below. The red illumination is set off by the gunmetal effect switch panels.


| Race-style front seats

Finished in black Alcantara® with red stiching and red fabric inserts, the front seats have side bolsters for increased lateral support and are specially constructed using materials that help to absorb vibration.


| Leather-wrapped steering wheel

The black leather-wrapped steering wheel has red stitching and also houses the audio, cruise control and multi-information display buttons. The red 'H' emblem is proudly displayed in the centre.


| Dual zone climate control

The driver and front passenger can each set their own desired ambient temperature. The fully automatic air conditioning system will ensure everyone in the Civic Type R's cabin is as comfortable as possible.


| Aluminium sports pedals

To complement the race-inspired design of the cockpit, drilled aluminium sports pedals and footrest (with rubber inserts) are standard equipment. These not only look great, but save weight in the car.


| Alloy gear shift knob

The alloy gear shift knob has a black boot with red stitching, giving you complete control of the close ratio 6-speed box. Placed just ahead of it is a special plaque engraved with the car's unique global serial number.


| Audio system

The 6-speaker audio system features a single CD player with AM/FM tuner and MP3/WMA compatibility. For easy fingertip control, there is steering wheel mounted audio controls for most major functions.


| Multi-information display

The multi-information display shows outside temperature, fuel consumption, driving range, door ajar, seatbelt reminders, travelling time, odometer and dual trip meters, all accessible via steering wheel mounted controls.


| Clever storage

There are 4 cupholders, huge glovebox, side pockets, bottle holders and a centre storage console with lidded armrest, as well as a range of smaller compartments to stow everything from mobile phones to MP3 players.


| 60/40 split fold rear seat

It takes one easy motion to collapse either section of the 60/40 split rear seat completely into the footwell, without removing the headrests. This brings luggage space from a respectable 485 litres to a remarkable 1,352 litres.
