Honda's current crop of hybrids might be focused more on economy, but the firm has just released details of something a little hotter.
Mugen Euro is developing a highly tuned version of Honda's CR-Z, which will deliver "Type R-like" performance, say the company.
The high performance levels will come from the hybrid's petrol-electric powertrain.
This faster, more powerful car will make its world debut at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in July.
