The Honda CR-Z is a compact hybrid electric automobile manufactured by Honda and marketed as a "sport hybrid coupe." The CR-Z combines a hybrid gasoline-electric powertrain with traditional sports car elements. The CR-Z is regarded as the spiritual successor to the second generation Honda CR-X in both name and exterior design.
In the U.S., it is one of the less polluting vehicles available and is rated as an Advanced Technology Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle (AT-PZEV) as defined by the California Air Resources Board (CARB). CR-Z is the only gasoline-electric hybrid model offered by any automaker that can be equipped with a manual transmission.
The Mugen CR-Z is thoroughly upgraded to deliver the same sort of performance as a Civic Type-R. That’s a tall order for a 120-hp 1.5-litre i-VTEC petrol engine coupled to a small electric motor. But Mugen’s treatment has raised the power to 200PS and 215Nm of torque. That’s what the standard CR-Z should have had.
To cope with the added power, Mugen has also fitted the car with sport suspension, upgraded brakes, and a body kit consisting of Mugen front and rear under spoilers, side skirts, rear wing and 17-inch lightweight forged alloy Mugen GP wheels. Carbon fibre bonnet and doors not only reduce the overall weight of the car but enhance the sporty look, while the eye-catching Brilliant Orange Metallic paint provides the finishing touch.
