Honda released the 2011 Honda CR-Z, who claimed to be born again (reborn) 1983-92 Civic CRX. This car will be marketed in Japan next February 2010 and then will be marketed in the United States (U.S.) a few months next. Compact car with a 161-inch was never presented at TMS 2007. After two years of development by Honda, the car will be shown in the TMS 2009 is claimed to ‘95 percent ‘for mass-produced. Honda CR-Z production of the final version will be displayed at 2010 Detroit Motor Show next January 2010. CR-Z will carry the 1.5L engine i-VTEC inline-4 is combined with IMA hybrid powertrain technology with six-speed manual transmission gearbox. CR-Z will be equipped with Ni-Mh battery as owned by the Honda Insight. Honda plans to stick like a hybrid engine that carried Insight. Skydeck has three rows of seats are super slim and sliding doors are also similar to the Honda Freed. High Skydeck has seen 182 inches shorter than the Honda Odyssey version of the United States (U.S.) and axle distance to 114 inches longer than the Honda Accord.Fitted with a 6-speed manual transmission and sport-tuned suspension, the upcoming CR-Z certainly will be engaging for the driver, the first hybrid sports coupe on the market. Although the car on display at Tokyo has a tiny back seat, the production CR-Z (which makes its worldwide debut at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit in January) is a sporty 2-seater, one with the added practicality of a hatchback.
Conveying its fun-to-drive nature, the CR-Z boasts a bold grille, slit openings for the headlamps and strong character lines that give this Honda an aggressive, angular look. It’s taller and less rounded that the original concept, making it much more practical and ready for production. One styling cue that connects the CR-Z to the highly entertaining original CR-X is the shape of the rear quarter glass. Beneath the hood, the front-wheel-drive CR-Z is powered by a stronger version of the Insight’s 1.5-liter 4-cylinder hybrid powertrain.
Honda’s Integrated Motor Assist works like an electric supercharger, effectively boosting both off-the-line response and fuel economy.
The CR-Z concept’s interior features more glitz than the production model will, but the layout will remain the same, with the main instrument bezel positioned behind a 3-spoke steering wheel flanked by pods for the auxiliary controls. With the CR-Z — which goes into production at Honda’s Suzuka factory in February — it appears that we will now be able to mix a healthy dose driving fun with environmental consciousness.
We’re glad Honda is acknowledging the importance of the CR-X, but hope that it isn’t following in the footsteps of the Big Three, when hallowed names like Chevy Nova, Pontiac LeMans and Plymouth Duster were slapped onto 80s compacts with little resemblance to the original. It would be sad if Honda acknowledged its past only to mine it for marketing.
