First pictures of 2014 Honda Civic WTCC released

Honda have released the first pictures of the new Honda Civic touring car from its test at Motorland Aragón in Spain.

Drivers Gabriele Tarquini and Tiago Monteiro drove the car during the test and Honda President and CEO Takanobu Ito is confident for a strong season in 2014 with the duo.

“We achieved four victories and captured the Manufacturers’ title in 2013 that was our first year of full-participation in WTCC. In the upcoming season we will strive to win the double title for Drivers’ and Manufacturers’ fielding a total of four cars run by three teams,” said Ito.

Cars in the new TC1 class will have more power, lower weight, bigger wheels and more aerodynamics, as visible in the pictures.

The 2014 FIA World Touring Car Championship season starts on April 13 at Marrakech.
