Honda CR-Z concept could oust CRX

Posted on Oct 9, 07 10:25 AM PDT

The Honda CRX is a venerable sports car of sorts, and word on the street has it that the Honda CR-Z concept will be released as a replacement. This next-generation lightweight sports car boasts Honda's very own gas-electric hybrid system that achieves both clean performance and a high level of torque. It shares the familiar glass rear end of the CRX profile, and the name CR-Z itself stands for ‘Compact Renaissance Zero’ - an expression intended to capture the idea of a renaissance in the design of compact cars that begins anew from fundamentals. Looks like a real sweet ride - hopefully it'll able to move into production sooner rather than later.

Not another Nip car with no pickup for me to avoid on the freeway. The oil hoax has got everyone's heads in their asses and now they think "hybrid" hippie crap will save the world.

This looks like slant eyed garbage.

But it's got that Edsel "horse collar" front end! Too snorky!

I definitely would buy one when they get released (if they do). Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
