2011 Honda CR-Z Mugen RR Concept

(continued from above)

The CR-Z Mugen RR has been created with many bespoke prototype parts, several of which are created in carbon fiber, including the bonnet, passenger doors and rear tailgate. Other features unique to the car include a full length carbon-fiber underbody, a twin central-exit exhaust, vented front bumpers and race-developed suspension. Orange 4-piston monobloc brake calipers and forged 18-inch alloy wheels both complement the vibrant Valencia Orange Pearl exterior paint work.

Inside the car, the seats are clad in Mugen-branded color-coded leather/Alcantara. The addition of a race-developed information screen has the ability to record chassis and engine data as well as housing a Satellite navigation and audio system. This high tech kit will monitor the car over two laps to "learn" a circuit and then record lap data and vehicle tracking using GPS.

The design concept was unveiled for its world debut at the beginning of July in the Moving Motor Show area at Goodwood Festival of Speed and complements the high-performance CR-Z Mugen, which was designed and built by Mugen EURO based in the UK.
