16 - The Oakville Beaver, Wednesday March 28, 2007 www.oakvillebeaver.com Honda unveils `small hybrid sports' concept at Geneva Motor Show Honda has unveiled a concept model at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show which represents its interpretation of how a future gasoline-electric hybrid model might appear. The Honda Small Hybrid Sports Concept, a design study model, demonstrates a unique fusion of advanced environmental technology, exciting styling and fun-todrive characteristics. The Small Hybrid Sports Concept is conceived around a front-wheel drive, small car platform and is powered by a Honda IMA 4-cylinder gasoline-electric hybrid system driving through a continuously variable transmission. It explores the idea that a car can have a low environmental impact yet still deliver all the driving enjoyment expected of a compact sports car. The aerodynamic design is characterized by curvaceous and contoured surfaces contrasting with sharp 'folded' edges. The short front and rear overhangs, together with wheel arches that wrap tightly around large wheels, further enhance the dramatic looks of this sports coupe. An accentuated, arrow-like nose features a full width air intake with Civic family overtones. This sweeps forward into a distinct protruding centre section complete with 'H' logo. The Concept model's fluid lines are created by a steeply raked windscreen which extends back above the occupants' heads where it meets a one piece glass roof.

At its centre, the glass panel extends downwards and contains an illuminated 'Small Hybrid Sports' name plate. The Hybrid Sports Concept is equipped with distinctive 20-inch wheels. Their dimension supports lowrolling resistance without compromising sporty driving. Compact external dimensions lend themselves to nimble, agile performance on the road and help to ensure a good power to weight ratio ñ 4000 mm in length, 1270 mm tall and 1760 mm wide. The 2350-mm wheelbase, in conjunction with a sports suspension, delivers stable and predictable handling characteristics. The body is particularly aerodynamically efficient and compact.
