A small, light, snazzy hybrid coupe with a manual sounds perfect right about now - cue the CRZ ⚡️
Note for reference: car weight and power data are hard to pin down with absolute certainty. For consistency, we use the same source for all our guides. We hope the data we use is right more often than it’s wrong. Our advice is to treat it as relative rather than definitive. For the poorly informed or ultra-stingy, 'hybrid' can mean the same as 'servicing is optional', especially when there's a Honda badge somewhere on the vehicle.
Quite a few of these smaller batteries have had to be replaced, and more often than owners might have expected. If a raft of warning lights suddenly comes up, not just for things like hill assist and traction control but also for the IMA battery, it is highly likely to be the smaller battery that is responsible. If you’re not using the car every day it’s a good idea to keep it on a trickle charger.
Which is a long-winded way of saying that the 1,200kg CR-Z will zip along a B-road nicely enough, with good feel from the steering, but don't expect it to be particularly quiet or plush. The ride was hard, and the lightness combined with the un-special suspension and less than sticky tyres meant that back-end skip was your companion on wet, bumpy roads.
The tailgate lock has a bit of a reputation for failing and the door actuators are well known for giving up. If you live in a warmer climate, opening the doors from the outside could become a bum-squeaking exercise as the thermoplastic door handles could get progressively more difficult to open before eventually refusing altogether and/or snapping off in your hand. In fairness this problem was much less common on later cars.
There was a big steering wheel airbag recall which affected CR-Z owners, some of whom were made to wait months for a resolution.
