Sexy

+1 for the wagon, they could really bring it back with the going green fad but people still wanting something suv like.

what a massive grill

Looks pretty good, but seems like they just sealed the back doors shut so that it's a 2 door.
Its even still got the outline of the door.

not liking these weird cross overs. we're gonna see like... convertible looking, wagons with a murano look. that is do not want.

interior yes

exterior? major fail

The marketing team behind the Honda Crosstour thought it was a good idea to use a social networking media such as facebook to generate a buzz/hype behind this model. Sadly, 99% of the comments have been negative ridiculing the especially the aesthetics and intention of another crossover.

Check out some of the hilarious comments:

If I had a wallpaper of this car I would have to find a way to clean VOMIT outta my keyboard. -- Matt Q.

We hear you bud. You made your point. Some people will enjoy this car and this is for them -- Honda

Blind people can't drive... Matt Q.

Here's the rest: http://www.facebook.com/accordcrosstour

After being flooded with so much negative comments in the last few days, Honda released a statement in defense:

Also here is some quick info on why this car might be the right fit for you.

1. Accord doesnt have 4WD.
2. CR-V desnt have V6
3. Lower than CR-V , higher than Accord.
4. More room than Accord.
5. More aggressive looks than Sedan Accord and some might a......gree coupe.
6. Comes with 18inch wheels.
7. Fog Lights Standard


Then today, another new statement:

Hi, Facebook fans. We’re listening, and we want to address a few things you’ve been talking about over the past few days.

1. The photos: Arguably, the two studio photos we posted didn’t give you enough detail, nor were they the best to showcase the vehicle. There are more photos on the way. Maybe it’s like a bad yearbook photo or something, and we think the new photos will clear things up.

2. It’s not the European wagon: We've seen a lot of comments about the desire for a wagon, but this is neither a wagon nor designed for wagon buyers. We think the Euro wagon is a cool vehicle, too, and we appreciate the feedback… but a version of that wasn’t our intention here. That's another segment worthy of our consideration, but the Accord Crosstour, built on the larger, Accord platform, is meant to give you the best of two worlds – the versatility of an SUV with the sportiness of a car.

3. Many of you don’t like the styling: It may not be for everyone. Our research suggests that the styling does test well among people shopping for a crossover.

4. You want further details about the Accord Crosstour: We typically can’t give you details so far out from when the vehicle goes on sale for a number of reasons, including competitive intelligence and pure availability. However... we hear your frustrations, and while specs on the vehicle aren’t finalized, we’re trying to get some stuff together that we hope will satiate some of your curiosity and give you more to think about.

5. Honda associates participating in the wall comments: We didn’t remove comments out of embarrassment. We removed comments that were posted contrary to American Honda's consumer-generated media policy for associates: We must first clearly state that we are Honda employees and that a posting is a personal — not Honda’s — opinion. Eddie forgot to add that, so his comments were removed.


Thank you for all of the interest, and we’ll be in touch again soon...

LMAO. What a PR disaster.

what the gay

Is anyone else here fed up with cross overs?...

What do we learn from this besides bad design sucks?

If you have a chief designer eg Chris Bangle.. then he/she is the one who take the blame perpetually even after he/she had left.. If you design by committee, the whole company get kicked in the ass.

lol it gets better:

lol hes going to have some explaining to do at work tomorrow

not really.. as long as his boss doesn't use fb, he should be fine.


but seriously... what is up with honda's designs since the day the acura grill was introduced? Do parents really dig those designs?

Can we have some parents on this forum to say a few words about what they think about honda's new designs and specs?

always wanted a awd accord wagon.... this isn't what i had in mind
