The All New Civic Type R has been crowned The Sunday Times Legend Car of the Year at the Motor Awards 2022.

This year marks 25 years of the Civic Type R and what a glorious accolade to receive on its anniversary. Feast your eyes on the latest incarnation of the Honda Civic Type R, a model that thanks to this award now enters “legendary” status.

This Legend Award, recognises cars that have been with us for generations and each time has been exceptional. The Civic Type R was first introduced back in 1997 and over the last 25 years, every version has been incredibly rewarding to drive — and mightily impressive around a track — so it’s odds-on that the 2023 model will continue that trend.

It’s smarter looking than the outgoing model, too, so it’s off to a good start.
