3.7 out of 5

7 customer reviews
The 2012 Honda CR-Z is praised for its fuel efficiency, stylish design, and responsive handling, making it a fun ride. However, it has mixed reviews for comfort and practicality due to cabin noise, limited visibility, and small cargo space. The hybrid offers affordability and easy maintenance but compromises on power, reliability perceptions, and safety.
