    Post Honda CR-Z brochure leaked..0-60 in 9.7 seconds

    I'm interested to hear the Honda guys thoughts on this car....brochure leaked in Japan...its the new CR-Z..

    http://jalopnik.com/5421650/

    Would you drive a CRX successor that'll hit 60 MPH in 9.7 seconds and returns 40+ MPG? We would, because those are the apparently official specs on the 2011 Honda CR-Z. More info, scans below.
    http://jalopnik.com/5421643/2011-hon...hure/gallery/3


    Here's official specs straight from Temple of VTEC, which snagged these brochure shots:

    Length: 4080 mm (160.6 in.)
    Width: 1740 mm (68.5 in.)
    Height: 1395 mm (54.9 in.)
    Wheelbase: 2435 mm (95.9 in.)

    Engine: 1.5L i-VTEC + IMA
    Transmission: 6MT or CVT
    Power (ICE): 114ps@6000RPM
    Torque (ICE): 145 NM (107 lb-ft)@4800RPM
    Power (IMA): 14ps@1500RPM
    Torque (IMA): 78 NM (57 lb-ft)@1000RPM
    0-100km/hr (0-62mph): 9.7 sec

    It should be noted that the 58 MPG figure mentioned is calculated far differently from our own EPA figures. Expect the CR-Z to return much closer to the 2010 Honda Insight's 41 MPG (combined) figure when it's certified to American standards. Based around that Insight's hybrid powertrain, we're hoping the CR-Z drives more like the fun, if slow, Fit rather than the frustrating Insight. [via Temple of VTEC].

    Agreed, minus the extra weight due to comfort and safety it would probably be faster than the previous

    Default cr-z

    look a the engine size.

    1.5L.

    that is smaller than the original crx. The dx version had the 1.5L.

    I think this one is a hybrid motor.

    It does say "HYBRID" under the fuel economy in the brochure.
