Fiat 500 gets Stop-Start

Honda has today debuted the production version of its CR-Z hybrid sports coupe at the 2010 Detroit motor show.

Featuring a 1.5-litre petrol engine with 108bhp and 71lb ft torque, the CR-Z produces 122bhp and 128lb ft in total thanks to the boost provided by its IMA parallel hybrid system.
