2013 Honda CR-Z in Winston Salem, NC - $10,490

Originally unveiled at the 2010 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the Honda CR-Z sport hybrid coupe introduced sleek styling and sporty handling to the hybrid segment. The exterior's distinctive "one-motion" wedge form originates from its low-slung hood to form a broad forward stance. A side profile with a deeply inset beltline conveys a dynamic tension, while the short wheelbase and large, wide front grille accents the vehicle's athletic presence.

Available in LX, EX and EX-L Navi trim levels, power for the CR-Z is generated by 1.5L i-VTEC engine with Honda's compact and lightweight Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) hybrid-electric system. A six-speed manual gearbox is standard with a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) automatic an available option.

Control hardware consists of a MacPherson strut suspension in front and a H-shaped torsion beam configuration at the rear tuned to provide a sporty, solid and dynamic driving experience.

Inside the passenger cabin, the futuristically styled interior offers a high-tech appearance and ergonomically intuitive controls. Instrument panel meters illuminate with a three-dimensional, vibrant blue color theme resulting in a multi-layered appearance. Set against a motif of textured black materials and aluminum-style trim accents, the upper portion of the dashboard extends toward the driver to provide a wrap-around cockpit environment. The passenger zone offers an open, comfortable space. Premium sport-oriented cloth seats are designed to provide excellent lateral support along with everyday driving comfort. A mid-ship console behind the front seats optimizes cargo space. A hard-shell separator can be closed to create additional hidden storage.
