Euro Mugen Type-R Based on Honda
Honda's tuner Mugen has a European counterpart called Euro Mugen which is set to release its own model of car. Based on the Honda Civic Type-R, the Mugen will have some small engine modifications along with some serious suspension work. The Honda Mugen Type-R already had a reputation for being one of the best, if not the best, handling front drive cars in the world. This is a true drivers car and was known for out classing many established dedicated rear drive sports cars. The Euro Mugen Type-R will feature a 2.0 liter inline 4 i-VTEC engine that revs up to 9000 rpm. This little high winding motor is good for an impressive 220 horsepower, meaning that this powerplant surpasses that magical 100 horsepower per liter mark. Acceleration is adequate but not notable, with a 0-60 time of 5.6 seconds. On the track this type of car is really ideal, and it shows with its high cornering speeds and fast transitions. The Mugen Type-R is a beautifully engineered compact car.
