By

J.A.S Motorsport has released a first image of the TCR specification Honda Civic that is set for competition in the new championship next year.

“The price cap and the technical regulations for the new TCR class match perfectly the needs of the Touring Car market and it enables us to extend our offer to Honda customers around the world,” said Alessandro Mariani, Managing Director of JAS.

“The price of the base car and the affordable running costs will allow many drivers and teams to participate in numerous national and regional championships, while the TCR International Series will be a worldwide showcase for more ambitious outfits.”

The car is designed, built and developed by JAS while Honda engine specialists Mugen are building the engine.

Swedish team WestCoast Racing is going to run three Honda Civics in the 2015 TCR championship, formerly named TC3, with drivers yet to be named.
