2011 Honda CR Z Type R: The article brings up another issue that Honda is covering up the performance of the CR-Z. Apparently the cars 0-62 mph time of 9.7 seconds and mileage of 36/38 mpg, numbers leaked from an early production catalog, are being covered up by Honda for not being either fast (about the same as the Prius) or economical (the Prius gets 51/48)
Tomobe would also like to make a Type-R version of the CR-Z by reducing the weight of the car. This is hinted at later in the article that some serious weight reduction could occur by using a lighter version of the motor and inverter and installing fewer, but more efficient, batteries.
