█ Exhibit vehicles

Honda S660 MUGEN RA Prototype

This prototype model is a Honda S660 that was customized as a basic sports model for driving enjoyment. It is a S660 MUGEN complete car that delivers further advances in power performance and premium features.


MUGEN CIVIC TYPE R Concept

This is a concept model in which we pursued every kind of possibility as we developed the CIVIC TYPE R. Based on the expertise gained by MUGEN through motor sports, we conducted repeated wind-tunnel testing and installed aero parts and functional parts that focus on aerodynamic performance and maneuverability. We are currently developing MUGEN parts for the market CIVIC TYPE R that will further improve the concept model.


MUGEN S660

Based on the “Super Little Sports” concept, this model contains performance parts that maximize driving excitement, as well as high-functionality parts which include not only front, rear, and side spoilers, but also other aero parts including replaceable front and rear aero fenders, wings, hard top, aero bonnet, and aero engine hood.

With 18-inch aluminum wheels and sports silencer with 2 pipes on each side, this model delivers an appearance that is every bit as impressive as its functions.
