The CR-Z is the first in the world to combine a precise, driver-focused 6-speed manual gearbox with a low emission, parallel hybrid system – made possible by the flexibility of Honda’s IMA (Integrated Motor Assist) system.

The 1.5 litre, 4 cylinder i-VTEC engine works with the electric motor to provide a total power output of 137ps and 190Nm of torque. The electric motor also provides an unusually flat torque curve for a naturally aspirated engine – with the maximum arriving at just 1,000rpm. Both sound great together, too.

This unique coupling* offers CO₂ emissions of just
116g/km* and fuel economy of 56.5mpg.
