Honda, which will make its World Touring Car Championship debut at the end of this season, unveiled the livery of its brand new racing Civic.
The final version of the bodywork of 2012 Civic WTCC race car was also unveiled today.
The new race car is the result of extensive wind tunnel testing. It features an extended front and rear skirt and other additional aerodynamic elements. Combined, they enhance the Civic's smooth air flow creating a coefficient of drag (CD) value that is best in class for a C-sector 5-door hatchback.
The car will make its WTCC debuts in Japan, China and Macau this season with Tiago Monteiro, before a full program in 2013.
