Hyundai’s CR-Z-Fighter

摘要

Hyundai's 2012rnVeloster concept-inspired hatchback has been spied cold-weather testing. The car is expected to go on sale in late '11 and give the Honda CR-Z a run for its money. At a Hyundai event, the company indicated its goal for the coupe, which will not be called Veloster, is to attain 40-mpg highway without benefit of a hybrid powertrain. That's hybrid CR-Z territory.rnWhether that happens remains to be seen, butrnwe can see through the concept's black cladding on this prototype. It's a compact three-door with proportions similar to the CR-Z. The Hyundai sport hatch will be powered by a 1.6-liter gas direct-injection four-cylinder making about 140 horsepower.
