Honda engineers have designed the vehicle to be very capable on the track, while still being tame enough to drive comfortably on public roads.
Honda intends to put the 2.0-litre four-cylinder Earth Dreams motor under the hood, which would deliver an output of about 300 horsepower.
The four-door hatchback configuration will go up against cars such as the new Subaru WRX STI. Unfortunately, Honda doesn’t see fit to sell this car in North America.
