Honda CR-Z Pics

The CR Z is powered by a 1. 5 L (92 cu in) i VTEC inline 4 motor, designated as LEA, with Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid electric framework. A six speed manual transmission is standard supplies and a persistently variable transmission (CVT) is unoccupied. The framework transports a joined peak output of 122 bhp (91 kW) at 6000 rpm and 128 lb·ft (174 N·m) at 1000 to 1500 rpm on CVT provided models). The fuel engine itself donates just 111 bhp (83 kW) at 6000 rpm and 106 lb·ft (144 N·m) at 4800 rpm. An early road test of a Japanese financial sector CR Z resulted in 0 60 in 10. 5 seconds and the quarter mile in 17. 6 seconds. Inside Line performed the same 0 60 test in 8. 8 seconds, and Motor Trend, in 8. 3 seconds.

Honda CR-Z Petrol Variant

Honda CR-Z

Honda reportedly has plans to bring out a CR-Z with a new turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. According to Autocar, the engine is currently in the development phase at Honda’s Tochigi R&D centre.
Incidentally, the CR-Z is presently available with a hybrid engine option that combines a 112 bhp 1.5-litre petrol engine with a 14 bhp electric motor.
As is the case with many automakers, Honda will aim to promote turbocharging to achieve high horsepower as well as conserve fuel. With forced induction and Honda’s patented VTEC-i fully variable camshaft timing system, the 1.6-liter turbocharged engine is expected to deliver an output similar to a 2.0-liter engine. Further, this engine is expected to be used in the Honda Jazz/Fit, Honda Civic and Honda Accord.

That's More Like It: Tuner Powers up Honda CR-Z with K20 i-VTEC Engine Swap

This is not the first time that LHT Performance has made the switch on a Honda hybrid as the tuner

Honda CR-Z Roadster Die-cast Begs the Question; Should it Become a Reality?

From what we know, Honda has no official plans to build a roadster version of its CR-Z hybrid coupe. But that hasn't stopped others from trying - even if in this case, we're talking about a scaled down die-cast model. Too bad we couldn't find any additional pictures of the toy-sized model, and especially of the rear end. If you happen to have any information and/or pictures, you know the drill...
