Honda CR-Z Concept 2007

Honda is introducing at the 2007 Tokyo Motor Show the CR-Z Concept that is a lightweight hybrid sports car. This concept is a final interpretation of the projects presented at Paris and Francfort. It is intended at preparing the way for future Honda hybrid propulsion production cars.

CRZ stands for "Compact renaissance Zero" . The Honda CRZ is presented as a new project combining powerful performances in a compact form with futuristic image while ensuring a limited environmental footprint.

Honda has been proposing production hybrid models for several years but it was found that the limited success was due to conventional presentation; the hybrid versions were indeed using production model range with no distinction. Honda is entering a project to produce distinctive hybrid propulsion vehicles.
