The new Honda CR-Z is already a very successful model. If you remember, a while ago we reported that demand in Japan in stronger than expected. So Honda's decision to bring a more powerful hybrid coupe on the market comes with no surprise.

While there are no official details on it, rumors suggest the next hybrid sports coupe will feature a more fuel efficient 2.5-liter, four-cylinder gas engine attached to Honda's well-known IMA hybrid system.

The future car will have the same size as the Accord Coupe and will have a four-seats configurations. Motor Trend also reports that Honda is currently testing a system similar to the Chevy Volt's range extender plug-in hybrid system that will be used on large cars and SUVs.
