The CRZ launching in July soon is 1.5 normal hybrid version... The 1.6 with turbo is not known yet, it still undergoing final R&D in Japan.
Although the CRZ should nothing more than a Civic Hybrid price, but it is subject to HM to price it premium as a sports hybrid, and in a way to preserve the Insight sales. The only thing that will deter Insight sales from being affected much beside from the price is the practicality of CRZ that are 2 seaters only. I will post up latest update once I got any...

Yes... Honda famed for their high performance NA engines that can even match others with force induction... But due to emission control, go green and global engine downsizing trend... It seems that's the only way... We do love something like K20A still
And Honda did have turbocharged engine, like the K23, and way long before JDM City 1.3 Turbo... My mom used to own one red City that time... |

Yes, unless even the director of GA mistaken... Both the director and sales manager keep reminding me that the maintenance revised to that of City =)... And also the battery warranty revised to 5 years and costs down to 6000.
But don't worry... I will drop by again and have a talk to re-confirm. This post has been edited by ZeroSP: Feb 16 2011, 11:17 PM |

Hehe... If I place order, I would get special allocation within a week... That's nice... But too bad I can't give this allocation to friend.
And yes, it is Honda practice to ask customer to collect car instead of delivery... And typically you should expect anything less than 15KM mileage. Cause some center they are far away from inspection place. This post has been edited by ZeroSP: Feb 17 2011, 12:34 PM |
