      Interestingly, the auto giant claims that Honda CR-Z hybrid concept car is based on the current-generation hybrid technology, which has been implemented in the likes of Honda Civic and Accord hybrid models. The company states that CR-Z is an acronym for Compact Renaissance Zero that describes the overall layout and architecture of the car. This Honda hybridi car also exhibits cues of the company's first ever sport hybrid coupe, which has a 2-seater futuristic design. The auto maker further states that this car has not only been provided with aesthetics in the body but has been more aerodynamically enhanced with the input of a decent power engine.

      Not many Honda cars in India and the globe have been given such subtle expressions by the company and somehow this car falls away from the paradigm of the auto maker. The company has tapped a robust 1.5-litre in-line 4-cylinder 16-valve SOHC i-VTEC petrol engine under the hood of this hybrid. The mill is able to churn a power output of a decent 112 bhp with a peak torque of 172 Nm. The mill is coupled with a heavy lithium-ion battery pack, which enhances the overall figures of the car to 130 bhp with a maximum torque of 190 Nm. This power-source combination has been coupled with a 6-speed Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) with paddle shifters.

      The company has provided state-of-the-art features at the interiors of this hybrid car, which showcases a 7-speaker audio system with display unit and satellite-linked navigation system with voice recognition. Features, such as steering-wheel mounted consoles, automatic climate control, rear view mirror with camera display and SMS text message function have also been given in this Honda hybrid car. Safety features of Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), Traction Control System (TCS), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS) with Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist and Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) are also given in this car.

      Honda CR-Z hybrid concept car is anticipated to soon arrive in the Indian market and is expected to be equipped with all the aforementioned features. Honda car dealers believe that this car's advent will be a new turning point in the history of Indian automotive industry and will largely benefit the brand image of the company. Honda CR-Z hybrid price in India is expected to fall within a price bracket of Rs. 12 lakh – Rs. 15 lakh and it will certainly be a primary choice for the environmental-friendly people of the society. Auto experts envision this hybrid car to be a humongous success among the concerned buyers owing to the famed reputation of the company.
