The Sporty Hybrid: Honda CR-Z

Honda’s new concept cat, the CR-Z was already seen in auto shows like North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit, the Paris motor show and Tokyo Motor shows. The new sporty hybrid had people staring and praising for Honda’s new baby.

Will be released on late 2010, the Honda CR-Z’ name came from “Compact Renaissance Zero”.  It is efficient, environment friendly and of course has a really edgy design. The car will be powered by Honda’s Integrated Motor assist that can also be found in the Insight and other Civic hybrids.
“The CR-Z draws its inspiration from a need to deliver spirited performance in an efficient manner. It’s all part of our commitment to help effect positive environmental change. So keep on the lookout for more details about the CR-Z. “
To deliver this, the car will have 140 Hp and a 1.8 liter engine. It also has a smaller body mass than its older brother the Insight. But the CR-Z has bigger engine, tires and brakes compared to Insight. This two-seater car will be followed by the Jazz hybrid a few months after the CR-Z is released.
