Honda makes some bold claims of the Civic Type R’s on-track performance, but how does the model fare on track against one of evo’s favourite hot hatchbacks?

i8

It’s one of the most technologically advanced products on the market and a real hit in Silicon Valley. Not the Apple Watch, but BMW’s i8 plug-in hybrid sports car.
