Check this clip of the new Mugen supercharged CR-Z unveiled at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. With 200ps on tap, I think this makes the CR-Z into the car everyone was waiting for.

Also, it has to be the coolest sounding hybrid street car ever.

Thanks to Jon Sibal for the tip.

Not enought... A Integra R, or a civic R FN2 would kick this fat hybrid's ass

2

wow a supercharged hybrid lol

3

I love the mugen styling, really enhances the sport hybrid image.

4

I would go with another color, but overall i love it. great job Mugen!

5

i saw this videos time ago!!! sound nice though!

6

as nice as this video was, I believe this is a repost. I coulda sworn I saw this before lol

7

i like this videos is verry impressive.

8

Put it on a diet - that means ditch the batteries - and drop in a K20.

9

At long last, a hybrid I wouldn't feel ashamed to own. I agree with Oliveira though, no hybrid can compete with Honda's best platforms, at least not yet.

10

is this the black mountain pass in wales?

11

The power of dreams? More like the dreams of power.

Is it an electric supercharger for the electric motor?

I need one of those sport buttons to turn the instrumentation colors from white to red, on my lawn mower.

12

why aren't any mpg figures ever stated with these hopped up CR-Zs? i'd rather have a k-series fit.

13

i hate the cr-z tail light, it reminds me of honda insight..

14

Still ugly and now its a hybrid that gets 25mpg city with the manual gearbox so whats the point? Might as well manufacture it with a K20. I guess the point is to say that its a hybrid (useless or not) and fool every idiot that gets all silly for green technology.

And "Lol" are you serious? An electric supercharger for the electric motor? Are you one of those uninformed folks that think hybrids are completely electric powered vehicles? A hybrid has a gas powered motor along side an electric motor. If you haven't figured by now... the supercharger is placed on the gas motor.

15

oxymoron

16

A two door insight that makes noise at it goes slowly by.

17

Completly Retarded Zero!!

18

Apparently nobody has seen Bisimoto's turbocharged 500hp fully functional CRZ. proves to people it can still produce more power. I think this is cool but people are too blind to see the direction of this car

19

sooo this is going to cost what close to 40k maybe more? and for what a hatchback toyota prius? and uhhh mugen uhh lala a whole what 200HP hahaha this things a joke!!!
