According to the UK's Autocar, Honda will announce the new Type R Civic at the Paris Motor Show and show a concept version of the hot compact at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2013. The Civic Type R will likely hit the market sometime in early 2014.
In all likelihood Honda will fit the next Type R with a smaller, turbocharged engine to improve CO2 emissions. Horsepower will likely stay around the same mark, but the addition of a turbocharger should ensure the next Type R has more twist than the last generation's 142 lb-ft of torque.
Unfortunately for buyers in the U.S., the Civic Type R will likely be reserved for the European market.
