最近谍照记者在俄亥俄州拍到了本田思域Si轿车。这辆测试车的前后保险杠进行了伪装，但仍能看出其造型与2017款思域Si原型车非常接近。本田在洛杉矶车展发布了Si轿跑车的概念版车型，该车搭载了一台1.5升四缸涡轮引擎，但功率提升至149千瓦/200马力，足以和大众GTI和福特福克斯ST竞争。概念车还提供了限滑差速器，主动转向和升级版减震。这些配置将使思域Si的操控更优异。车厢内，概念车采用了支撑力更强前排座椅和碳纤维装饰件。仪表板采用红色闪亮装饰件，提升了车辆内部运动风格。这些配置也将出现在量产版上。本田将在今年首次亮相思域Si轿跑车，但目前不知道轿车版是否同时发布。或许该车将比轿跑车更晚亮相以便能吊足了胃口。

 

Honda Civic Si Sedan spied hiding its sporty face in Ohio

Honda is soon launching the Civic Coupe in the hotter Si trim, but these spy shots indicate the more powerful engine is eventually arriving in the sedan, too.

 

The camouflage on this test mule hides the front and rear bumper, but the concealed pieces protruding outward have a strong resemblance to the parts on the 2017 Honda Civic Si Prototype concept.

 

Honda unveiled the Si coupe as a very thinly veiled prototype at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The concept retained the 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from much of the rest of the range, but additional tuning likely increased the mill's output. We expect the figure to be somewhat above 200 horsepower (149 kilowatts) to compete against hot hatches like the Volkswagen GTI and Ford Focus ST.

 

The concept also packed a limited slip differential, active steering, and updated dampers. The parts should make the Civic Si, regardless of body style, into a better handling vehicle for competing against other high-performance compact models.

 

Inside, the Si concept had bolstered front seats and carbon fiber trim pieces. Red lighting accents around the instruments also gave the car a sporty look. These pieces will likely make it on the production version, too.

 

Honda should debut the Civic Si Coupe sometime in 2017. We don’t know yet whether the sporty sedan would arrive at the same time. As a way to maintain the hype for the higher-performance model, the company might hold back the four-door variant for a slightly later premiere.
