Maybe the rumors of the CR-Z's death have been exaggerated. <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> has just released the first teaser of a new concept that it plans to debut at the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/beijing-motor-show/">Beijing Motor Show</a> at the end of April. It shows off a sporty looking coupe that looks like the child of a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/cr-z/">CR-Z</a> and <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/hyundai/veloster/">Hyundai Veloster</a>. However, the concept looks to be for the Chinese market, as it's a joint proposal with one of its domestic partners there, Guangqi Honda Automobile.<br />
<br />
Unfortunately, we don't have any other details about the concept yet - not even a name. The teaser also doesn't give a very good indication of the car's size. It appears to be roughly the size of a small coupe, and if Honda hadn't already tried the idea with the CR-Z, you could almost see it as a modern <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/honda+crx/">CRX</a>, but it could be a little bit larger, too.<br />
<br />
In addition to the coupe concept at the Beijing show, Dongfeng Honda will premiere the concept for the next Spirior, which is the foreign version of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/accord/">Accord</a>. Guangqi Honda will also bring a mid-size SUV and the third-generation <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/fit/">Fit</a>. Acura will also be there and will have both the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/acura+nsx/">NSX Concept</a> and a model of its powertrain. <a href="/2014/04/08/honda-readying-veloster-rivaling-concept-beijing/#continued">Scroll down</a> for the full release about everything Honda will show in China.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/04/08/honda-readying-veloster-rivaling-concept-beijing/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Honda readying Veloster-rivaling concept for Beijing?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2014/04/08/honda-readying-veloster-rivaling-concept-beijing/">Honda readying Veloster-rivaling concept for Beijing?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Tue, 08 Apr 2014 13:32:00 EST.
