The Honda Crosstour is an all-new crossover vehicle that goes on sale November 20, 2009. It combines all the best features of the Accord with the utility and all-weather capability of a crossover. After nearly 15 years, Honda is finally releasing their own counterpart to the revolutionary and popular Subaru Outback, arguably the first car-based sport utility vehicle.
Based largely on the Accord, the Crosstour is a raised hatchback that combines the responsive and smooth drive of a car with the utility and all-weather capabilities of a crossover. The optional all-wheel drive and extra ground clearance ensure top-notch handling on slick roads, while the tailgate provides plenty of space for ski gear, groceries, luggage, etc.
