Honda CR-Z: Honda so excited about winning Japan Car of the Year that gets special edition
0 comments Posted by car at 9:38 PM
The 2011 Honda CR-Z may not exactly be sailing to success here in the U.S., but it has managed to walk away with the coveted Japan Car of the Year title. In order to celebrate, Honda has decided to work up a new special edition version of its tiny sport hybrid. Only available in a special "Pearl Dipusafaiaburu" blue paint, the hatch makes use of unique 16-inch alloy wheels and premium metal pedal pads inside. If the color and the wheels don't make this one easy enough to spot, Honda has also gone through the extra effort of placing a "Japan Car of the Year" commemorative sticker on the rear quarter glass behind the driver's side door.
Otherwise, the Japan Car of the Year Edition CR-Z will remain completely stock. Neither fuel economy nor power has been upped in any way. Not surprisingly, it looks like this one will remain a Japanese-only offering. Still, if you like what you see, chances are you could recreate the special edition CR-Z without breaking a sweat – or your bank account for that matter.

The North American Fusion also encountered naming problems. In this case, his original name was Futura, first used on the Futura 1955 Lincoln later made famous as the Batmobile 60s, and later the model designation used for a version of the 1960 Falcon, and Australia's Ford Falcon Futura models from 1964 to 2008, and last used in the U.S. 
on a two-door version of the Ford Fairmont, and others. Since the name had been shelved for too long, and meanwhile a tire distributor (Pep Boys) had used a court challenge by Pep Boys was decided to Ford. Thus, the two different versions of the Fusion exist.

For What It’s Worth Best Car Magazine in Japan reports that Nissan is developing a hybrid version of the Fairlady Z (370Z called the rest of the world). It is certainly plausible that it could be a hybrid-Z, as the automaker has recently produced its own hybrid system developed internally M. Nissan Infiniti with its own lithium ion battery for its hybrid system.
The solution to this problem would be easy, even if we think the technology can be deployedby Renault or Mercedes, the new partners. The development of the Sport model, which has already started with the Japanese engineers, will continue in the coming years in an intensive test session for transmission to customize the harsh climate and driving conditions.

Toyota launched its head rotation Rukus - hot and hip urban alternative to small vehicles sport utilities and sport wagons. New challenges Rukus rules car design with brazen square shape, which has become a landmark.
Toyota laugh Rukus - with square lines and flat surfaces - for people who "think in a box.
The Japanese automaker, Toyota, present A-BAT hybrid pickup concept at the Detroit Motor Show later this month.
Far from a conservative-style vehicles, which currently favors Toyota showrooms, unique look of the concept is the combination of large body surface, intersect with a hard surface planes, crisp lines and the trapezoidal profile. Toyota A-BAT in 19-inch wheels sit at the corners of the car creates a tough and is ready.
Toyota wants to adolescent dreams about work, apparently.
FT-HS hybrid sports car concept will be premiered on January 7 at the North American International Auto Show, and we can expect, 50:50 weight distribution and the 400 + hp monster of transmission is very similar to the Lexus GS 450H: 3,5 liter V6,
related to the Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive (HSD) system (which may mean Sulev emissions, but no word on fuel economy yet). This may be the next Supra.
Interestingly, this is not a direct effect of the car on the environment, although we can expect that it is better than "traditional" V8 gasoline engine with the sports car will compete with the (lesser of two evils). No, the interesting thing is "halo" effect, it could, making hybrids cool and desirable new public. Even if they never end up buying this model, they saw technology and associate it with something they want, not what they do not.
