Sharp case with eco wealth: the new hybrid hot hatch Honda CR-Z in autonet intensive test. Should you appreciate it if the time soft washed everything, what was once dear to us? Theoretically, Yes. On the whole, also. But when the small, hot iron, CR-X is a green freight car, then the fun stops himself. Then one must rethink. What is it today? No longer about black Reifengraffity on the first few metres after the traffic lights, not to personal bests between Vienna and Mariazell, not to Fox tails on high antennas, because we now have a sharkfin on the roof. Since nothing is secure, that disrupts the aerodynamics.

Reason is Trump ladies and gentlemen, today the reason ruled. Today, fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are the trump cards in the car Quartet. We’re not talking about outliers of the Porsche-Ferrari-League or twisted up, bourgoisen BMW/Audi/Mercedes sedans, station wagons and SUVs. We are in the broad segment of people, where the true life. And here is a CR-Z direction. He consumed that relatively little Fuel. Under its aggressive, almost snotty surface is a good character, who wants nothing more than the environment.

A small hybrid with valiant 14 PS electric motor and 114 PS petrol engine. Star Guitarist gathered all the information. Which although looks like he might tear the world down at any time, and then you must apply all tricks ever to come along: the sport button looking up turn off course and baring their teeth. Save button in his futuristic dashboard three switches are well lit so you can see them at night even in the windshield,: sport, normal and Econ. In the sport mode, if all inherent power concentrated together, radiates the Revolution counters/tachometer combination warning red, to hell as a note, this nonsense and to adjust the curves heating that quite a pleasure thanks to direct steering and exact short circuit.

By want and may not be… In the ECON State lose all teeth of the CR-X. Because nothing goes on. There only is saved. And this is all in order. To 6.5 liters it screws down hybrid system playing the consumption with Bremsenergierekuperation and start-stop. Where the trust said also prolonged, violent sport “phases because nothing change. But why you plant the whole eco-technology in a low, flat body, the feelings of the GTI exudes, why can the rear bench seat are labeled only as storage space, where one martyred children during a long drive? Why is it all so sporty formulated together with more difficult consideration by the split rear glass window, where one is really happy about the Parkpiepserl? Or the Start button! He is already only sharp, if you turned the ignition key. Supply and demand argue constantly in the CR-Z. Or vice versa. You want more of it, he’s driving you warning in the parade. Together with the eco flower as motivation and reward for environmental-friendly driving. You want. But it is impossible. Or something like that.

The new fuel LPG is cheaper and more environmentally friendly than gasoline “Get off oil.” This set is all the rage for some time. In the face of rising global demand, the steadily rising prices and last but not least because for reasons of environmental protection the search for alternative energy sources is in full swing. An interesting particularly for motorists alternative to gasoline is a mixture of propane and butane LPG (liquefied LPG petroleum gas). For several years this so-called LPG asserts itself more and more as a fuel in many countries. So there is now a nationwide network of LPG filling stations in most European countries. Since LPG is significantly cheaper than petrol, the cost of an LPG conversion amortize relatively quickly, even with low catenary. In Germany, a liter costs LPG currently to the 76 cents (spring 2012), not least because of the reduced excise rate with this fuel is funded by the Federal Government.

Thus the litre price of LPG is about a euro under the Super petrol. Liquefied petroleum gas due to its lower density has a lower energy content than gasoline while, thereby increasing the consumption depending on the vehicle by 5 to 20%, but this disadvantage is offset by a higher calorific value. The bottom line for autogas costs when about 30 to 40% of the gasoline fuel cost. Due to the seasonal price rise in gasoline in the winter, the savings are sometimes even higher in the cold season. And also with regard to pollutant emissions, LPG is the best alternative because it burns very clean. So is the carbon dioxide emissions of a liquefied petroleum gas plant about 15% less than in operation of the same vehicle with gasoline. Unburned hydrocarbons are reduced by about half, and the entire emissions decreased by approximately 80%.

The reason is that in the fumes almost no soot particles and sulfur dioxide and emitted other harmful substances such as benzene and aldehydes in significantly smaller amount. Thus is LPG significantly below the limits of the Euro IV standard (green badge). A liquefied gas installation is possible with all common vehicle models and costs between 1500 and 3500 euro. Because it saves each year over 1000 Euro fuel costs with a mileage of 20000 kilometers per year, pays for itself very fast conversion and hence worth not more brand new cars. In Germany, nearly half a million cars with LPG are operated. This corresponds to a market share of about 80% in the alternative drive systems for motor vehicles. The only drawback is the lower range of LPG vehicles when compared to gasoline or diesel, because after about 400 km, the tank is empty. But one must not fear therefore stay behind, because LPG is there in this country already at over 6,000 service stations. T. Kroha

In a subtle black, the dashboard was already kept in their model, now enjoying the designer but also applications in aluminium look the swift. The center console has been redesigned, the clarity and ease of use but maintain. There are now also a storage compartment with lid above the Middle ventilation outlets. The tool box has also got a new look and expanded with a centrally placed info display. Fresh styling is also available for the steering wheel, that special leather is made from the second trim level and offers also from this level standard CD radio buttons.

In the deluxe version, there is a cruise control, which can also be controlled from the steering wheel. Special is manually, run from deluxe as automatic climate control air conditioning. The somewhat unpleasant smell that emanates the climate control in the new cars, tarnishes the good impression of quality a little. Overall, a significant increase in comfort is recognizable but. Recently Michael Chabon sought to clarify these questions. Suzuki takes a significant jump in perceived quality in the Interior of the swift.

The processing is high quality. The cockpit is clean and tidy. The controls are big and easy to reach. The scoreboard was also redesigned. Between the round instruments is now Space for an info display that provides information about temperature, range, and consumption. The center console has now got a fine swing. CD radio is located beneath the control of climate control, also part of the Serienaussstattung in the deluxe version. The special models must come out with a manual air conditioning. Durststopper who looks only at the performance figures, will recognize any changes in the engine. 90 HP had the predecessor and also has the new petrol engine. Instead of 1.3-liter displacement, he satisfied but now with 1.2 liter. The torque increased slightly by two Newton metres on 118. markedly and the fuel savings is desirable. Old engine allowed himself to 5.8 litres there are now exactly five litres in the average.
