Honda announced that the all-new 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour is set to debut on November 20 in the US. The Accord Crosstour combines the sophisticated refinement of a premium sedan with versatile characteristics of an SUV to create an entirely distinct concept within the Crossover Utility Vehicle (CUV) segment. All Accord Crosstour models come standard with a 3.5-liter i-VTEC V-6 engine with Variable Cylinder Management (VCM) designed for power and efficiency. The engine produces 271 horsepower at 6,200 RPM and 254 lb-ft. of torque at 5,000 RPM while achieving an EPA-rated city/highway fuel economy of 18/27 mpg on 2WD models. The VCM cylinder deactivation system is programmed to run on 3, 4 or 6 cylinders, based on current power requirements.
Honda Accord Crosstour is available in two model choices, the EX and EX-L. Available features exclusive to the Accord Crosstour EX-L include the Honda Satellite-linked Navigation System and Real Time 4WD, available together or separately. The navigation system includes a backup camera with guidance lines integrated into the display. Safety technology includes the Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) body structure, a Honda-exclusive body design that enhances occupant protection and crash compatibility in frontal collisions.
