Body = Designed as an "Advanced Personal Compact," the
next-generation Si will incorporate flowing bodywork, a steeply
angled windshield, and wide stance to suggest stability and forward
motion. The new Si will be the fastest and most powerful Civic offered
in its twenty-year history. The 2006 Civic lineup, launching this
fall, will include a 4-door Sedan, a 2-door Coupe and Si Coupe,
an even more fuel efficient Civic Hybrid and a natural-gas powered
Civic GX.
The Civic Si
Concept builds on its performance heritage with a 200-horsepower,
16-valve, and DOHC i-VTEC engine with an 8,000-rpm red line, mated
to a close ratio 6-speed manual transmission. Helping to put all
that power to the ground is a helical-type limited slip differential
for improved launch traction and cornering performance. A 200-horsepower
16-valve i-VTEC engine powers the 2006 Si. Honda sources indicate
that next-generation i-VTEC technology will have significant gains
in performance
and fuel economy. A six-speed transmission will give drivers manual
control of shift points up to the engine's redline of 8000 rpm,
and a helical-type limited-slip differential will enhance traction
and cornering ability. The Si Concept includes performance features
such as 18-inch cast aluminum wheels
with 225/40R high performance tires, and 4-wheel disc brakes with
large cross-drilled brake rotors. "The 2006 Civic Si Coupe
will be the most powerful, fastest and fun-to-drive Si we've ever
put on the street, and the Civic Si Concept sets the direction in
terms of its styling, package and performance," said John
Mendel, senior vice president of American Honda. "It's part
of a new family of Civic vehicles that build on the already class-leading
values of the Civic in terms of
safety, styling, performance and fuel efficiency."
This new production Civic Si Coupe will serve as the performance
leader for the 2006 Civic model lineup, which will be completely
redesigned. The 2006 Civic will feature more emotional styling,
enhanced performance, and the latest generation of
"intelligent" i-VTEC engine technology. One of the leading
