Honda takes another crack at a sporty CR-Z hybrid

Honda, having already unveiled a version of the CR-Z hybrid sports concept, is about to give it another go. It will unleash a new concept version of the same car at the Tokyo Motor Show later this month. From the looks of this one, they may have gotten it right.

The CR-Z is aimed at showing that social responsibility and fun can go together. That's news to us. We've always tilted more to the fun camp. The CR-Z would be the sporty alternative to the staid Insight sedan, which so far hasn't exactly lit up the sales chart in the U.S. At this point, Honda badly needs a hit hybrid if it wants to become known for them.

The real CR-Z, the one you can actually buy, is due to come to showrooms next year.
