Two attractive cars on display!

MUGEN tuning models were lined up at Honda’s booth at the Osaka Auto Messe 2023 held at Intex Osaka from February 10 to 12, 2023.

MUGEN ZR-V Emotional Urban Sport

The concept of the MUGEN ZR-V, with its white body and glossy black elements, is “Emotional Urban Sports”.

This car is a custom concept, but is intended for commercial production and adds a moderately sporty touch to the plain-looking ZR-V.

In particular, the front grille has been changed from the stock vertical grille to one that emphasizes horizontal lines, which is interesting because it completely changes the look of the front mask.

In addition, front and rear under spoilers, side spoilers, and a tailgate garnish have been added. The tailgate garnish gave an intricate shape to the tailgate area, which tends to have a weaker accent compared to the front.

As for the muffler, the four tailpipes, two on each side, emphasize the aggressiveness of the vehicle, and together with the 19-inch fin-type aluminum wheels, the vehicle has a sense of unity like that of a premium European sports SUV.

New Civic Type R MUGEN Spec.

The centerpiece vehicle bearing the MUGEN name is the new Civic Type R. The real carbon fiber gives the car a powerful appearance. The front spoiler and hood on this car have already been installed on a car that participates in actual long-distance races. The hood ducts have been revised based on the feedback of the knowledge gained from the races.

At the rear, the single center muffler, which is also based on the image of a race car, stands out and, together with the large rear diffuser, further improves aerodynamic performance. The rear wing also follows the shape of the one used on the previous-generation Civic Type R race car.

The wheels are a combination of BBS 19-inch wheels and MUGEN center caps. A joint model between BBS and MUGEN may eventually be born.

The interior is chic and different from the normal Type R. Not only the full bucket seats and floor mats are black, but the floor carpet and seatbelts are also black, creating a relaxed atmosphere.

Other functional parts include 20mm lower springs, Brembo brakes, and an oil cooler mounted on the back of the front bumper. This is a prototype, so it is not yet known if it will be released. However, the company will continue to develop the car, taking into account data from races and user feedback, so we can expect great things from this car.
