Futuristic styling. Hybrid power. Advanced interior design. And it's all wrapped up in a lightweight, fun-to-drive package. What a concept! It’s the Honda CR-Z concept, to be exact, and it made its North American debut at the 2008 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit.
And now it's official: a CR-Z based on the concept vehicle will go into production and be on sale in 2010.
Shorthand for “Compact Renaissance Zero,” the CR-Z is a forward-thinking exercise in inspired design and environmental technology. The CR-Z draws its inspiration from a need to deliver spirited performance in an efficient manner. It’s all part of our commitment to help effect positive environmental change. So keep on the lookout for more details about the CR-Z.

I think that I am slightly errect after seeing that car. I'm sure that they will be well into the $30K range and not practical for a competition vehicle. They do look like they would do quite well in some of the street classes though since it's a futuristic version of the CRX.

Too bad the production version will look nothing like that... Anyone remember the concept version of the Chevy Volt? It looked bad ass too... Now it looks like a prius mixed with a cobalt, and costs $40k+... I wouldn't get your hopes up guys
