Very reliable, GREAT gas mileage, zippy car!
This car met most of my needs. It is efficient, cost-effective, and decent looking. You can drive it in eco, regular, or sport modes depending on your preference. It has a cool-looking dashboard/display. Its navigation system is easy to use and very helpful. Gas mileage is outstanding - the best I ever got was 41 miles per gallon, and the most common was around 35 mpg. The only downside is that it is only a 2 seater car, so not very practical for my every day life. However, its benefits definitely outshine this negative. Overall great car.

So far so good!
When you think of Honda this is NOT what comes to mind! So far I have dubbed it two names the Frankenstein mobile or the Hybrid Hybrid. It's a mix between two completely different opposites that it puts a smile on my face. It has the looks of something else mixed with Honda and a hybrid that's not a traditional hybrid. It truly is a very unique car and that was what I was going for when I purchased it. Front seats are more than adequate for anyone of any size. I am 5'7 and feel the car could have even been smaller! Pick up is about average. I test drove a Veloster and can say this is miles ahead on what the CAR is. Not just looks as the Veloster is. The CRZ makes you feel like a true driver. I don't say this as someone who has not driven it ALL. Have had 500HP cars to AWD. You can hear road noise from the tires but not in an uncomfortable way. It is in a way of feeling connected to the road.

Good but not great
Leg room is and issue if you are taller than 6'2" sportiness is on par with the reports, fun to throw in to low speed corners. Other thing is the rear seats are useless. So just put it down and leave it as cargo room

Very undependable car!
I used to love my little car, but it's battery has let me down one time too many. I purchased the 7 year warranty, so new batteries are covered, but I have had 3 replacements and have an appointment at the dealers tomorrow due to ANOTHER DEAD BATTERY! This one was just replaced 11/16. This is my first and last Honda.

Honda CR-Z what a great car!
Great car, pretty, nimble, head turner, more power than I need, but still gets up to 43 mpg because it's a hybrid. Lots of cargo/luggage space because it has just the 2 front seats. Well designed, just plain fun!

Super fun to drive!
To be honest I do not have children so I did not need much room for passengers. This car exceeded my expectations in performance and fuel economy. I am averaging 45 miles per gallon as long as I do not need air conditioning. I already drove it up and over Rocky Mountain National park over the continental divide in Economy mode. Had plenty of get up and go the entire way. The seats are pretty comfortable and easy to clean. My only complaints are the 2 front cup holders are under the dash so you might only fit a soda can at the tallest. There is no center arm rest at all but instead a weird cup holder between the seats and slightly behind. The fun part of this car is when you activate sport mode. Boy does this baby rev up and growl to life! As long as you remember to only use 87 octane (mid grade for Colorado) you get more get up and go and better fuel mileage. Trust me I put in regular for a few tanks and I see a drop in fuel efficiency and power. so overall this has to be the most fun car I have ever owned! I used to have a 2013 Chevrolet volt but this 2011 CRZ is so much lighter that it can be much more zippy!

Most issue-free car I've ever had
I've never owned an issue-free car as this CR-Z has been. It's never left me stranded on the side of a road, it's fun to drive, and people ask about it a lot. Excellent on gas (About 40 mpg). Lot's of extras. I would recommend it to anyone.

Super fun sporty 2 place car.
I love it. Have to sell it but I REALLY don't want to. Great gas mileage and super styling. Love the paddle shifters and the 3 driving modes, Eco, Normal and Sport.

Used for 3 years with no issues
Wasn't sure when I purchased this car, but it blew me away. The instant torque response from the electric motor is tough to match, other cars start feeling sluggish(other than tesla or other electric cars of course). When I mean responsive, I don't mean fast, it doesn't have highway grunt, but putting in premium gas does give it a bit more power. The extended warranty I purchased was completely useless, there was no major issues at all. The Fog lights have cracked two years ago but the foglight still works. The lightness of this car is what makes it fun similar to other small cars like BRZ, and FRS, Miata, but this has a better fuel economy than all of them, and don't believe the negative reviews comparing this to other hybrids, because other hybrids frankly suck and have zero driver involvement, unless it's a 918 or Honda NSX, I'm talking like priuses and insights. If I total this car I would get another one! It's been 7 years since this car was new and now it's 153,000 km, I just replaced spark plugs and I can see it lasting all the way to 300,000km.
