Reviews SummaryWhen we think Civic, our minds don’t instinctively leap toward the Type R. This isn’t a commuter special priced for newly minted drivers and aimed at sensible manners and good fuel economy. Driving the Type R is something else entirely: bombastic, fast, and an instantly memorable experience. With more power and performance, the new 2023 Honda Civic Type R provides a more exhilarating driving experience than ever before. | |
Reviews SummaryThe mad scientists at work in Toyota’s Gazoo Racing (GAH-ZOO) department are at it again, this time taking the typically tame Toyota Corolla and igniting it with a 1.6-litre turbocharged three-cylinder engine, standard all-wheel drive, and enough bulging bodywork to make a Volkswagen Golf R blush. The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla is an all-new look for the Corolla. The car most often considered for boring, A-to-B commutes has been utterly transformed, signaling to the world that the marketplace for sizzling hot hatchbacks is still alive and well for enthusiasts to enjoy. | |
