What if hybrids were less like hybrids and more like race cars? If dark was light and left was right? Powered by a unique fusion of Honda's sport and hybrid technologies, the CR-Z defies all the rules to bring you the epitome of hybrid driving performance.
Down to the last detail
There have been no compromises on style with the CR-Z. Its sport soul has been brought to life with an energetic exterior, including an eye-grabbing front grille and alloy wheels.
The perfect relationship
Powered by Honda's hybrid technology, the CR-Z combines a petrol engine with an electric motor to deliver you unrivalled hybrid power. This Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) system harnesses energy dispersed when you brake and puts it to use, making your car more efficient while you save on petrol costs.
Finally, a manual hybrid
In a world first for a hybrid vehicle, the Honda CR-Z gives you a choice of transmissions. Choose between a 6-speed manual transmission and Honda's automatic Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT).
A very cool profile
The CR-Z goes beyond style to deliver a hybrid that is not only aesthetically pleasing, but practical too. With a low bonnet line and raked roofline, the CR-Z effortlessly slices through the air to achieve maximum efficiency.
Push the right buttons
The CR-Z's 3-Mode drive system lets you choose your preferred driving stance at the push of a button:
• SPORT - performance mode
• ECON - maximum efficiency
• NORMAL - the perfect balance of sport and economy
No power plugs allowed
This just isn't that type of hybrid. The no-compromise CR-Z charges itself while on the move. You still need to fill it up at your local petrol station; you'll just notice you're doing it less often.
