And as for [...] an SI sedan....render all you want but they are not being made and all those renders are just a pipe dream as well.
We know with absolute, straight-from-the-mouth-of-Honda certainty that there will be an SI sedan.

There's no accounting for taste - or so they say. I think the Hatch looks great from the front and the side, but that rear...

Anyways, Honda makes (or will soon make) a wide variety of Civics - hopefully something for everybody (unless you are looking for a 3-door hatch, Hatch Si, or Sport Touring with a 6-speed manual and CarPlay).

Place your bets. When is it going to ship?
My bet is Spring (April) for Canada because they're being manufactured in Alliston Ontario, and Summer (June/July) for the USA. A few people "in the know" on this forum have suggested production has already started at the Alliston plant.

Apparently they started preproduction in late February. I think that puts the Si Coupe around a May/June release. I haven't heard if they're releasing the Sedan as a 2017 or 2018 model. My gut says it will be the latter, which pushes the full release back to August/September. :(

Remember this? The european version has 180 HP, so this should be the SI engine

I'll also add that the last time I had a discussion with anyone about this powertrain, they were working off a configuration of the CRV's. Different turbo, intercooler, and a few other bits (at minimum).

I haven't gotten much more than that. But @All-Knowing feels pretty confident we'll see around 200 HP. I think it's going to be closer to 215-225, maybe 230, based on the current & upcoming competitive environment. We should know within 5 weeks.

This is old and was posted months ago.

We will get the facts and figures (hp rating etc) at the New York Autoshow in less than a month.

Visited the dealership in Keene NH today, and I ran into the manager who, after a bit of fantastic conversation, let me in on the fact that tomorrow Honda is holding a meeting to discuss release dates for the Civic Si and more details are going to be confirmed about the car. I will definitely be stopping by on Saturday to ask him how it went and see what he can tell me.

The USA sport model is 180hp as well. The Si will be more hp than that.
The engine shown has 150 Kw= 201HP and 260 Nm.
No other version of the engine has this specs, including civic EU, CRV, and chinese versions Acura CDX, Honda Jade, Honda URV, Honda Avancier, all with different outputs of the 1.5T
