I will also be posting up more CR-Z stuff at sixsylinder.blogspot.com as I find it.

***I WILL PAY GOOD MONEY FOR JAPANESE CR-Z PROMOTIONAL DEALER MATERIALS. Especially one of those green flags!

Headlights have lots of cool little details:

Stock JDM tire appears to be either Advan A10 or Potenza RE50. This car has the Advans.

Image


Crazy passenger-side wiper:

Image


Same plastic intake mani as on the 1.5L in the JDM Fit.

Image

Image


Battery container, I believe?

Image


Not sure what I'm looking at here with the hose. Anyone?

Image


Rear plate mounting area with backup camera:

Image


What is ETC? Looks like a card reader of some kind?

Image


Ah, the much-beloved JDM road flare:

Image


Video input is interesting.

Image

Image


Not much for rear visibility:

Image

Image

Image

Image


Image


Crazy gauge cluster. Apparently green is when it's either at a stop or engaged in regenerative braking...maybe?

"Eco Mode"

"Sport mode"

Really??? is this gay dont think so...

Rated as one of the sexiest hybrids to come
Looking a bit like a Carrera GT evolved, the 918 Spyder is powered by both a 500-horsepower V8 and a pair of electric motors (one for each axle) producing an additional 218 hp or 160kW. At full gallop, the concept can theoretically reach 62 mph in 3.2 seconds and nip 198 mph on the high end. On the flip side, Porsche says it can also achieve 78 miles per gallon and emit just 70 grams of CO2 per kilometer.

Even Ferrari 599 is coming in hybrid as well.

One thing is nice even now...braking is soo good in hybrids which are charged by braking...works as BBK with normal piston brakes

78grams x average yearly usage of 20000kms a year = 1560000 grams /1000grms = 1560kgs of CO2 :| :|
