Honda Civic SI 2012 have a 2.1 Liter engine Review

At the Detroit Auto Show this year, some of the most amazing machines were on display. Among the ones that demand attention was the concept of new Honda Civic 2012. No, the actual car was not displayed as Honda intends to launch it in 2012, but wanted the audience to know about its upcoming technological changes in the sleek car.

Looks are quite similar to the existing model, except for headlamps, wheels, and the interior of course. However, this is not what Honda was there for. It wanted to announce that the new model will have a 2.4 liter mill with better horsepower, which will make it the sportiest Civic we have ever had.

Our sources report that the new model will have a power configuration similar to that of Acura TSX, which has 201 horsepower. So, according to our estimate, the Civic Si 2012 will have be anywhere between 200 to 215 horsepower, which makes it slightly better than its current 197 horsepower.

So, the only major difference is its transformation from a 2.0 liter engine to 2.4 liter. However, Honda plans to release official numbers, and changes, if any, during the last quarter. Meanwhile, the current model is expected to keep the customers engaged.

Honda confirms NSX development has started again

Heads up, Hondaphiles – it looks like the NSX has been dug out of storage and plopped back on the table as a candidate for production. Company president Takashi Ito has announced that he’s jump-starting development on the supercar. As you may recall, the beast was unceremoniously put to bed after the global economy gutted itself back in 2008. At the time, the project sailed under the HSV-010 moniker, and Hondaeven went so far as to campaign a version of the machine in the Japanese Super GT series.
 

Since then, the supercar segment has all but exploded with new metal. Mercedes-Benz jumped into the action with its SLS AMG, Lexus came to the party with the high-tech LFA and old-timers like the Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 and Nissan GT-R have been enjoying their own slice of supercar territory. We’re all for the notion of a resurrected Honda fighter, but we’re still going to treat this one with a healthy dose of skepticism.

Honda Civic Si 2012 getting new 2.4L engine with 200 hp

Honda gave us a preview of its 2012 Civic at this year’s Detroit Auto Show, and while the car we saw on stage was technically a “concept,” we expect the production car to look very similar, albeit with more conventional wheels, headlamps, and, you know, an interior. Instead of just showing one Civic, Honda brought out both a sedan and Si coupe concept, and now our friends at Temple of VTEC have reportedly confirmed that a new 2.4-liter mill is on deck for the sportiest of Civics.
Known internally as “K24,” the 2.4-liter engine slated for Civic Si use will be very similar to the powerplant currently used in the Acura TSX. No official power numbers have been divulged, but this engine currently makes 201 horsepower in the TSX, so we’ll bet that Civic Si output will be somewhere between 200 and 210 hp. That isn’t a huge increase over the 197 hp currently available from the Si’s 2.0-liter four, but the 2.4-liter engine should prove to be a bit torquier. Look for something along the lines of 170 pound-feet in the 2012 model, whereas the current car only produces 139 lb-ft of twist.
 


Official data will be revealed closer to the Civic family’s launch later this year. And while these new Si numbers aren’t leaps and bounds better than what’s currently available, the easily flickable driving dynamics and rev-happy power should still make it an engaging steer.
