We have some good news for those of you waiting for the new generation of the Honda Civic Type-R.

According to Yasuhisa Arai from Honda R&D, the 2015 Civic Type-R will feature a more powerful 2.0-liter turbo power plant capable to deliver a total of 300 horsepower.

This news has been officially confirmed by the car maker which means that there remains to doubt on the upcoming model.

Other features of the Japanese sports car could include a rear-wheel steering, new limited slip differential and a Precision All-Wheel system. The new Civic Type-R will go on sale most likely in 2015 with a starting price of 25,000 in the United Kingdom.

Honda released no official photos of the new Civic Type-R but we’ve got an artist rendering which should let us get a closer look at the possible exterior design.
