Honda CR-Z Trademark Might Signal The Quirky Hatchback's Return

On July 29,  Honda applied for a new trademark for CR-Z in the United States. Motor Trend first discovered the filing. Usually, we'd assume this is the common move by automakers to protect their model names, even ones no longer in production. However, some deeper digging suggests this is something a little different.
Honda might be toying with the idea of bringing back the CR-Z. It might be the perfect time to introduce a sporty, hybrid hatchback.
