Honda unveiled a pre-production prototype of a hybrid version of the new CR-V crossover for the European market.
Public premiere of the SUV will take place in mid-September at the Frankfurt motor show.
Part of a hybrid power plant includes a 2-liter gasoline engine and two electric units. One of them, acting as generator, is connected to single speed transmission, which “provides a constant sensation of power and high torque”.
The power plant can operate in three different modes — solely on electric, only used by the internal combustion engine, as well as in a combined cycle.
According to preliminary data, sales of new items will begin in mid-2018.
