Honda has unveiled its Ultimate Edition Civic Type R marking the end of sales for this model in Europe, with only 40 units available making this a rare car.

It has been produced to celebrate 28 years of the Type R and comes in the legendary trademark Championship White, featuring red decals on the bonnet and along the sides of the car. The roof is painted black and it also includes carbon details such as the wing spoiler.

Owners will receive a matching gift box containing a numbered emblem (from 1 to 40), a carbon key ring, custom floor mats and a car cover.

Hannah Swift, Head of European Strategy and Product at Honda Motor Europe said,

As we say farewell to a true icon of the Honda automobile line-up in Europe, we thought it was fitting to give the Civic Type R the ultimate send-off with this special edition model offering our customers a unique opportunity to celebrate its legacy. The industry is changing, and our model range is having to evolve with it in accordance with European legislation. However, Type R has always been Honda’s ultimate expression of our passion for driving excitement, and we look forward to celebrating its heritage in the weeks and months ahead

European sales will end for the Honda Civic Type R in 2026.
