September 1st 2010 Irvine, CA – Wraptivo™ will produce our very first in
house SEMA car in the form of a 2011 Honda CR-Z sport hybrid concept
build dubbed “Type-F”.The goal for the Wraptivo™ Honda CR-Z Type-F
Concept is to evoke the notion of fun, which lies at the core of the
CR-Z DNA while also giving a nod to the spirit and Honda heritage of the
CR-Z. The Type-F concept will feature a sportier aesthetic over stock
with the use of a combination of Honda Accessories Aero pieces and along
with other aero components from Japan. The aero package will be
complemented with a design package created to give this concept a
special uniqueness yet with a familiarity that is still unmistakably
Honda. The vehicle will be wrapped with Wraptivo™ Matte Black and Carbon
Black Film while small accents will be left in gloss black. The CR-Z
will act as a canvas for Wraptivo to showcase its vehicle wrap options
and give customizers a preview of how they can take advantage of this
technology as a new way to protect their factory paint while also having
the ability to easily change the look of their vehicle.
Rest of the press release available after the break.
To increase performance we are looking to develop a supercharger system, suspension package, an ECU Tune, exhaust system, and other components with the help of our technology partners: Honda Accessories, Tein , HKS, BF Goodrich, Volk Racing, Hondata, and others to be confirmed at a later time. Interior enhancements will be subtle but functional. Recaro seats, a sport shift knob, and alcantara panels will be implemented to give the driver a sportier experience for fun filled excursions.
The completed Wraptivo™ Honda CR-Z Type-F will closely resemble the concept rendering created for us by automotive digital illustrator Jon Sibal (JonSibal.com) though as the Type-F Concept is still in the early stages of production the final version may differ from the illustration slightly.
The Wraptivo Type-F Concept will make its official debut at the 2010 SEMA Show in the American Honda exhibit while the Wraptivo designer car wraps by Meguiar’s product line will also be launched at the same global event. Visit booth 24643 (in center hall) to learn more about Wraptivo and the American Honda booth to see the Wraptivo CR-Z. From there it is our intention to test all of our performance upgrades by entering the CR-Z Type-F in Source Interlink’s Super Lap Battle time trial event held the week after SEMA’s conclusion.
Updates on the Wraptivo Honda CR-Z Type-F concept will be available on the official Wraptivo™ twitter page (twitter.com/Wraptivo), Facebook page (facebook.com/WraptivoFB), as well as on MotorworldHype.com, the official online media partner for the Wraptivo™ Honda CR-Z Type-F Concept. There will also be a feature article and pictorial in an upcoming issue of Import Tuner magazine.
