Honda CR-Z
The little sport coupe with hybrid technology features a slightly redesigned silhouette that affords it a more aggressive style. This front-wheel drive is powered by a 1.5L four-cylinder whose horsepower has been increased from 122 to 130. It’s linked to a more powerful electric motor. You can also opt for a compressor provided by the HPD (Honda Performance Development) division, giving it a total of 200 horsepower.
