Honda will showcase a range of its advanced vehicle and powertrain technologies at the upcoming Geneva Motor Show.
The carmaker will offer a glimpse of the Honda Civic Type R, the Honda Clarity powered by a fuel cell, and the Honda Neuv electric vehicle.
The highlight of Honda’s show presence will be the unveiling of the all-new Civic Type R. The Type R was developed in parallel with the new standard Civic hatchback.
Type R will feature Honda’s latest 2.0-litre VTEC Turbo petrol engine.
Production of the new Civic Type R will start in summer 2017 in the UK.
The car will be exported across Europe and to other markets around the world, including Japan, Australia and the US.
Its arrival in North America will mark the first time that any Honda-badged Type R has been officially sold there.
Honda will officially unveil the production version of the all-new Civic Type R at its Geneva Motor Show stand.
The Honda Clarity Fuel Cell will also be on show, following the arrival of the first cars in Europe at the end of last year.
The all-new Clarity is the world’s most advanced fuel cell vehicle and delivers a maximum range of 620 km.
Receiving its European show debut in Geneva, the Honda NeuV is a fully electric concept car.
The concept car explores a financially-beneficial ownership model for customers, by functioning as an automated ride sharing vehicle when the owner is not using the car.
It would pick up and drop off customers at local destinations, and could also sell energy back to the electric grid during times of high demand when it’s sitting idle.
NeuV also functions as an artificial intelligence assistant utilising an ‘emotion engine’, which learns from the driver by detecting the emotions behind their judgments.
It can then apply what it has learnt from the driver’s past decisions to make new choices and recommendations.
