2013 Honda CR-Z

Sporty and fuel-efficient cars are becoming more common each day, so there is plenty of competition for the CR-Z. The first competitor is the 2013 Mini Cooper, which comes standard with a 1.6-liter engine that puts out 121 horsepower, 29 mpg city and 37 mpg highway, and a six-speaker sound system. Next up is the 2013 Hyundai Veloster, which comes in with a 1.6-liter engine with 138 horsepower, is rated 27 mpg city and 37 mpg highway, and has a six-speaker sound system. The Final competitor is the 2013 Ford Fiesta, which comes standard with a 1.6-liter engine with 120 horsepower, is rated 29 mpg city and 39 mpg highway and has a four-speaker sound system.

The competition may not blow your doors off in this class, but it is certainly a fierce battle nonetheless. The CR-Z definitely has some impressing to do to pull customers into its new-age technology.
