Any info if its coming here? I want one^^

The CR-Z has been available in Thailand for almost 6 months now, from gray market importers:

It will never be officially imported by Honda, so this will remain the only way to buy one.

Even if it were officially imported, there's no way it'd be priced in the low-end of the Jazz range - it'd still more than likely sell for 1.2-1.4M..

Jazz hybrid made in LOS will be using engine/trans/hybrid from CR-Z and probaby sell at 750-850k baht

Both use Honda IMA (Integrated Motor Assist, same thing as Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive), and both are available with CVT-7, but the Jazz Hybrid is coupled to a 1.3L benzene engine and tuned for economy only, whereas CR-Z is mated to a bigger 1.5L engine with switchable economy/normal/sport modes for the electric motor.

Iv read both 1,3 and 1,5 for coming Jazz hybrid. LOS logistic would indicate 1,5 for LOS.

IMHO, both are a joke as hybrids, unable to move the car by battery power alone

Have never heard any suggestion of 1.5L Jazz Hybrid for LOS, but agree it would make sense from a logistics POV.

Agree that all current Jap Hybrids are awful - regenerative charge only is just not the solution. Camry Hybrid is arguably the worst car I've driven for several years - put your foot on the gas and then wait 10+ secs for power, making it downright dangerous not just horrible to drive.

IMHO the GM Volt/Ampere will be the first properly done Hybrid vehicle - plug-in charging for day to day use, and benzene auxilliary power generator, heavily optimized for purpose giving extended range, and the same convenience normal cars have of 2 minute gas refills.

The hybrid systems Porsche and Ferrari have in the works might change my bias against regenerative-charge hybrid systems though
