Default Motor Trend Honda CR-Z Concept

Slated for a February 2010 launch in Japan and later that year in the U.S., the world's first dedicated sports hybrid coupe employs a 1.5-liter gasoline engine paired to an updated version of Honda's now well-known IMA (Integrated Motor Assist) system. Upgraded from the Insight's 41 mpg 1.3 liter unit, one source close to Honda tells that we can expect somewhere around 32-35 U.S. mpg from the new coupe.

interior is... nifty. I'm not sure how they classify this as sporty. For a hybrid it's peppy... but I would imagine it's about as thrilling to drive as 5 ton Army truck.

LMTVs are turboed and riding in the back is pretty thrilling especially since it to drive one you have to be qualified as one of the worst drivers in the nation and have an IQ below 90, just saying....

Now see, the front of that is distinct, but it still looks good. Hopefully Honda will choose this design as their new "nose" and ditch the trend they've been following. This looks damn good.

I'm curious what this will sell for once it hits the market. They might have a winner on their hands.

I thought that was going to be the new SI, and the mileage sucks. A stock 90 civic gets better mileage than that, not to mention any HX ever made, on 1 less cylinder wtf?

now the skydeck looks sick. Def a much better option than the odyssey.
