Spy shots from the Honda CR-Z hybrid coupe testing in China. The CR-Z ain’t on the Chinese car market yet but Honda seems to have some plans. Big question for now is: will it be imported or locally made?

When Honda wants to enjoy new tax-brakes for hybrid cars it has to produce locally. If they do, they will likely do so under the Guangzhou-Honda joint venture. It might be imported first and made locally later. All a bit uncertain at the moment, we’ll keep you posted.

The Chinese source where I got this story from thought the car on pics was the new Honda Civic. It ain’t, it is the CR-Z indeed. Thanks to commenter Mr. Matthew for being more awake than I was…
