The CR-Z features a single motor for the gasoline-electric engine which is different from what Toyota uses in Prius featuring 2 motors dedicated to get better energy efficiency.
Forgetting the sales, even the Pre-sales are on a high with 4500 units already ordered counting to be 4.5 times what the company aims at selling in one month and with such figures the company expects to sell 40,000-50,000 units annually. The CR-Z is launched one year after Honda released Insight which failed to achieve the expected sales of 200,000 units with the actual sales totaling to 136,000 units and eventually the car was phased out from Japan in stages from March.
