In an interview, Senior VP at Honda Europe said "no decision" has been made on the new Type R's powertrain.

• “We have our main pillars that are going to be electrified. Clearly we have a very famous product, such as the derivative of the Civic, which I guess is what you are referring to in the Type R, but no decisions have been made on that yet,”
• “We’re very much aware of customers’ strong appreciation of the current model, and we’ll have to deeply consider the best progress forward.”
