Honda / Acura To Get New Crossovers This Fall




In news trickling out of this year's NADA convention, Honda has confirmed to dealers that it is coming out with a new crossover this fall. That vehicle would almost certainly be the rumored Crosstour that has been snapped so many times as of late.

Not surprising, Acura dealers were also told of a new crossover that may "possibly" slot between the RDX and MDX. I would have to speculate that this mystery model would be the luxed-up version of the Crosstour. You might recall that we have seen quite a few shots of an X6-like Acura speeding around the desert while wearing a lot of camouflage.

Given the spyshots, the Honda model looks very promising. As for the Acura, it's too soon to tell because to my knowledge, we haven't seen revealing shots yet.

What of the Honda Stream, the appealing crossover that has been rumored to come to the States? No word and it is the dark horse in this race. If we knew all the answers, watching the auto industry wouldn't be nearly as much fun!
