Fuel economy does not have to be boring anymore now that the hybrid-powered all-new 2011 Honda CR-Z, with its sporty good looks, quick steering, and nimble size and handling, is on the scene, available in North Miami Beach, FL at Aventura Honda. Offered in Base, EX, and EX with Navigation trim levels, the 2011 CR-Z comes powered by Honda's Integrated Motor Assist (IMA) mild-hybrid system. In the CR-Z, this system is made up of a 112-horsepower 1.5-liter 4-cylinder gas engine with 107 pound-feet of torque and an electric motor paired with a nickel-metal hydride battery pack that puts out 13 horsepower and 58 pound-feet of torque. Combined, these two engines allow for 122 horsepower and 128 pound-feet of torque. Your transmission can be either a standard 6-speed manual transmission or an optional CVT with paddle shifters. Most importantly, whichever transmission you choose will guarantee you good fuel economy, with 31 city/37 highway on the manual and 35 city/39 highway on the CVT. Also included on all CR-Z's is a 3-mode drive selector that features Normal, Sport, and Econ modes that makes corresponding adjustments to the A/C usage, steering assist, throttle sensitivity, and transmission programming (CVT) or additional IMA assist (6MT), allowing you to customize your drive.
Never get lost again with the Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation System with voice recognition. Make and take phone calls hands-free with Bluetooth HandsFreeLink. Enjoy all your favorite music on either a 6-speaker 160-watt AM/FM/CD sound system with USB/auxiliary audio jacks and a Radio Data System (RDS) or a 7-speaker 360-watt variant that adds a digital audio card reader and an 8-inch subwoofer. Or opt instead to plug your MP3 player or music-loaded flash drive into the USB Audio Interface and customize your music experience. Relax on those long drives without having to constantly fidget with the A/C thanks to automatic climate control. The multicolor gauge cluster helps you save fuel by displaying a green background when you are driving efficiently or a blue background when your economy needs improvement; the background turns red when switched over to Sport mode. Spice up your CR-Z with dealer-installed features like XM Radio and 17-inch wheels mounted to performance tires. Equipment such as automatic xenon headlights, hill-start assist, antilock brakes, stability and traction control, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags, and active head restraints help keep you safe no matter the conditions.
Other notable features/options include full power accessories, leather-wrapped tilt telescopic steering wheel, cruise control, fog lights, heated folding power side mirrors with integrated turn indicators, Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Daytime Running Lights (DRL), metallic interior trim, and textured aluminum pedals.
