Honda CR-Z hybrid become work of art

The CR-Z is the star attraction of a new street art installation outside the Royal College of Arts (RCA).

Since Monday (July 5) the street art collective Agents of Change had been creating a bespoke piece of graffiti as a backdrop to a display outside the RCA. The new installation, of which the new sports coupe hybrid model forms an integral part, was unveiled on Wednesday (July 7) to the passing public. The car is adorned in vinyl graphics to reflect the core colour scheme of the street art.

The street art incorporated a red, green and blue colour scheme – a reference to the three driving modes of the CR-Z – ECON (green), NORMAL (blue) and (red).

The carmaker is celebrating their inspiring stories and ground-breaking achievements its selected array of artists, musicians and filmmakers through a website, a limited edition book, an eclectic exhibition in London and a series of nationwide workshops.
