In 2011 Honda launched the much anticipated Honda CR-Z, which was lauded as the return of CR-X. Could the CR-Z follow the lightweight form-follow-function minimalism that was so successful in the original CR-X. The problem is that Honda shoved a bunch of Hybrid gizmotronics into the car and it pushed the scales at over 2700 […]
