Honda CR-Z – A Classic Two-Door Hybrid Sports Car
Honda’s iconic CR-Z model first hit the markets back in 2010, as a 2-door coupe that packed an efficient punch with a sporty exterior and a hybrid drivetrain that added a touch of environmental friendliness. Since its debut, the CR-Z has captured the hearts of sports car enthusiasts and environmentalists alike, proving that power and sustainability can indeed go hand in hand.
Today, we’re talking about one of the most significant upgrades you can do to your Honda CR-Z - installing a performance chip ECU Tune, as well as upgrading the air intake. These upgrades help you gain more horsepower, torque, and fuel economy while simultaneously ensuring the engine’s safety and longevity.
History of the Honda CR-Z and Its Engine Models
The Honda CR-Z debuted in 2010 with a 1.5L hybrid i-VTEC engine paired with a 13 horsepower electric motor, putting out a combined 122 horsepower. It was paired with a 6-speed manual transmission or a continuously variable transmission (CVT), depending on the driver's preference. With a quick acceleration time of 0 to 60 mph in around 8 seconds, the Honda CR-Z made waves in the sports car community.
In 2013, Honda introduced the "Plus Sport System" (S+) in its CR-Z, allowing for temporary bursts of power through the hybrid system to provide an additional boost to the engine when needed.
A performance chip ECU Tune enhances this S+ system by making your car more responsive, boosting its overall performance, and improving its fuel economy.
Why Install a Performance Chip ECU Tune in Your Honda CR-Z?
A performance chip ECU Tune is a small electronic device that optimizes your car’s engine's settings. Installing a chip can bring an instant upgrade in the engine’s performance, enabling faster acceleration, improved fuel economy, and smoother power delivery.
Furthermore, the chip optimizes the air/fuel ratio, providing better fuel economy and an increased overall horsepower and torque output, thus improving throttle response. With better engine timing, it can increase power output in the top end, improving overall vehicle speed and performance. As a result, a performance chip ECU Tune helps your car to perform optimally while driving under varied conditions.
The performance chip ECU Tune is a safe and tested upgrade, so you don't need to worry about damaging your car’s engine. This chip comes preprogrammed and optimized, ensuring your engine's safety, reliability, and longevity.
Additionally, an upgrade in the air intake system also brings forth increased airflow to the engine, reducing restriction, improving performance, and fuel economy.
