The production version of the 2011 Honda CR-Z has made its debut at the 2010 Detroit auto show, and the company believes the car will combine the sportiness of the CRX with the eco-friendliness of the original Honda Insight. The output of the engine and the electric motor combine for 122 hp and 128 lb-ft of torque. When power is routed through the standard six-speed manual transmission, the CR-Z is said to achieve 31 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway. Opting for the CVT bumps fuel economy to 36/38. As a reference, the Honda Fit is rated as high as 28 mpg city and 35 mpg highway. CR-Zs should be hitting dealerships by the end of the summer, and starting prices are expected to be less than $20,000.
