Overview[]
The Elysion Vision was an ugly, slow, reliable and a decent car, but this was fixed.
Known in automotive circles as a sport hybrid coupe, the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport is basically the same vehicle that debuted in 2011.
The 2012 Elysion Vision Sport is available in two different trims: EX w/ CVT and EX w/ 6 Speed. Both trims are available with a 6-speed manual overdrive transmission (with a hill-start-assist feature that applies pressure to the brakes for a couple of extra seconds when starting the vehicle on a hill) or a continuously variable transmission (CVT), which allows the car to provide better fuel economy by allowing the engine to turn at the RPMs that allow it to produce maximum power. A 16-valve, 4-cylinder, 1.5-liter i-VTEC engine powers the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport and is rated 35 mpg city/39 highway in CVT versions and 31/37 in manual-equipped cars.
For music lovers, the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport EX CVT and EX 6 Speed trims come equipped with a 350-watt audio system with 7 speakers (including an 8-inch subwoofer). Each version can support all portable music players and has Elysion’s USB audio interface, which will charge a device as well as playing music. Trims with navigation have 8GB of memory, and the system can be used simply by pushing a button on the steering wheel.
Standard equipment for the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport includes a tilt-and-telescopic steering column with steering-wheel-mounted controls, rear cargo console (for flexible storage), 3-mode drive system (Push Sport, Normal and Econ) to allow you to adjust the Vision Sport to your driving needs, automatic climate control, Vehicle Stability Assist with traction control and 16-inch alloy wheels with P195/55R16 all-season tires.
Standard safety features for the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport include an antilock braking system; driver and passenger active head restraints; dual-stage, multiple threshold airbags; side curtain airbags and a tire pressure monitoring system.
For both trims, standard equipment also includes textured aluminum pedals and Bluetooth, while standard equipment for versions with the CVT includes an aluminum shift knob with leather cover. Optional equipment includes 17-inch alloy wheels with 205/45R17 all-season tires, XM radio, bodyside molding, tailgate and front lip spoilers, splash guards and a rear diffuser.
The 2012 Elysion Vision Sport is available in five colors: Storm Silver Metallic, Milano Red, North Shore Blue Pearl, Premium White Pearl and Crystal Black Pearl.
Being a hybrid, the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport handles a bit sluggishly in Econ mode, with slow throttle response and loose response from the steering. In Push Sport and Normal modes, these issues go away. With a rigid chassis design and fairly even weight distribution (60 percent front to 40 percent rear), cornering is smooth and easy in the Vision Sport.
Competitors for the 2012 Elysion Vision Sport include the Chevlon Drive, N3XT Reina Sport and Combi Passion Coupe. With a stylish exterior, roomy interior with plenty of storage and sporty handling, the Vision Sport compares well to all those models.

Quirks and Features[]
- The Vision Sport shared a platform and hybrid powertrain with the regular Vision, and maybe that's where it got its name from.

Stats on the road[]
- HANDLING (ROAD HOLDING): Not too bad, it handles pretty good.
- BRAKING: Braking really good, despite it being cheap it's got really good braking.
- ACCELERATION: Acceleration is pretty good for a hybrid, just not the best. But it's a cheap sports hybrid car, and it's better than the 2021 Vision.
