Thanks, that's good to know and makes perfect sense. The R18A1 is the Civic version of that motor. They'll probably even give it a different designation. My guess is they just couldn't do enough magic to the Fit 1.5L Earth Dreams motor for it to work well in a 400+ more lbs, AWD & 17" wheel platform. I hope they keep pursuing the direct injection technolgy though. I'm also curious how the Vezel drive train is set up. Apparently, they were offering DCT. That's pretty sporty.
