Default 2011 CR-Z unveiled









I love how it looks. I'm very disappointed by the specs of this car. It sure as hell better come in less than 20k. I don't understand how Honda could have dropped the ball so badly. I'll update with live images when they're available.

Utterly disapointed with the specs . So in other words, my non-Si civic 2 coupe is still sportier and almost jus as efficient as the CR-Z?

Lol, fail. Fit is as efficient minus the more complex hybrid drivetrain (and until you've replaced the coolant in your prius, don't tell me it isn't worse than any other car) and has more space. Fail fail fail. 31 city and 37 highway with 122hp isn't ground breaking, it's actually a failure.
I'm sure itll look great, but man, fail. I mean seriously, if they put in the fit or civic drivetrain, would it be any less efficicent?

Looks OK, but that's about it.

It could drop a couple pounds and add a slightly stonger electric motor. That would go a long way. Otherwise you'll be lucky to get to 60 in eight seconds and the milage is not THAT great considering the car will be slow. I do like the looks though.

Without a hybrid drivetrain it would probably be lighter and quicker with a K20 and have just about the same milage with the right gearing and tune.

I agree the specs on this car are laughable, but as long as a car like the HSV-010 exists, I will continue to support the H badge.
