Ngemuva kokugingqika ngokuphelele kwesizukulwane sokugcina, esihlulekile ukujabulisa abalandeli noma umqhudelwano, abakwaHonda bathembisa ukuthi ngo-2015 bazobuyela ekubhekaneni necala ngeCivic Type R evuselelwe.
Ikusasa lenguqulo yohlobo R kububanzi be-Civic limbozwe yimfihlakalo. Ngokwengxenye ngenxa yokungamukelwa kahle kwesizukulwane sakamuva, futhi ngakolunye uhlangothi, ngenxa yenqubomgomo yokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwemikhiqizo yomkhiqizo waseJapane. Ngike ngavuma kuwe, ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule, ukungalethembi kwami ikusasa leHonda Civic Type R kulesi sihloko. Njengoba singenalo iqiniso esingazisekela kulo, vele ubheke izizukulwane ezimbili zokugcina ze-Civic ukuze ulahlekelwe ngokushesha noma yiliphi ithemba lalokho okwakuzokwenzeka - ngaphandle uma wabelana ngombono ofana noka-Luís Santos mayelana nomqondo wemoto yezemidlalo.
U-CEO wakwa-Honda, u-Takanobu San, kufanele ukuthi ufunde i-RazãoAutomóvel (ihlaya…) futhi weza kuleli sonto ukuzobeka amanzi ethumbeni. Imiphefumulo engaphumuli kakhulu (njengami) ingalala kahle. AbakwaHonda bazibophezele ukwethula ngo-2015 lokho okuzoba isondo langaphambili elishesha kakhulu kusekethe yenganekwane yaseNürburgring futhi ngaleyo ndlela kuhlonishwe amamodeli adlule afana ne-Integra Type R.
Uyathanda? Ukusebenzisa izifundo ezitholwe ku-WTCC nokuzibeka emsebenzini wemodeli entsha.
Kodwa izinjini zasemkhathini ezenze isikole yonke le minyaka ezinhlotsheni zohlobo R, ziyakhohlwa. Cishe, i-Honda izosebenzisa ubuchwepheshe be-Turbo ukwandisa amandla nokunciphisa ukukhishwa kwezinguqulo. Akukhona lokho sonke esasifuna ukukuzwa, kodwa isimanje siyakudinga.
Ngokungeziwe ku-Civic Type R, abakwaHonda bathembisa kuze kube yileso sikhathi ukwethula imodeli entsha ye-NSX yodumo (siyabonga Takanobu San!), i-roadster engakaze ibonwe “enamakhono amahle kakhulu ashukumisayo” kanye ne-SUV egqugquzelwe imodeli ye-Jazz. Ngakho-ke cishe zonke izindaba ezinhle.
