Honda has a sterling reputation for its reliable and affordable cars and they step it up a notch with their daring crossover vehicle, the 2010 Crosstour. This vehicle is an ingenious combination of sedan and wagon wrapped into one smooth package. Aesthetics wise it's a bit different than any other car you will see on the streets, mainly due to its back end. The frame is based on the Accord, however the Crosstour sports a lot more power and luxury amenities. Five individuals can be comfortably seated with more than enough leg room. Two trims can be selected from; the base EX and the more upscale EX-L.
The engine which runs this auto is a powerful V6 3.5 Ltr with 271 hp and 254 lb feet of torque. This vehicle accelerates from zero to sixty in just 7.5 seconds and can reach the quarter mile in 15.5 seconds. In terms of fuel economy, it gets around 18 mpg in the city and 27 mpg on the freeway. The drive is enjoyable and smooth, merging is a cinch due to the horsepower, plus the cabin remains quiet even at fast speeds.
Features Include a power moon roof, adjustable front seats, a stereo system with a cd changer and a dual zone climate control. The more upscale EX-L model adds on a steering wheel wrapped in slick leather, temperature controlled front seats and seamless integration with Bluetooth smart phones. An optional navigation system can be added at an additional cost which includes voice recognition and the ability to receive up to date traffic and weather updates. Trunk space is at 25.7 cubic ft which can be expanded to 51.3 cubic feet if the back seats are folded down. A really cool and nifty feature is the hidden and removable utility box right under the cargo floor which can be used to store extra items.
Honda engineers included numerous safeguards in order to ensure the safety of all passengers. The Vehicle Stability Assist system automatically adjusts pressure of the brakes in order to regain control during oversteering or understeering situations. The ABS system works to maintain control when you brake hard plus a Tire Pressure Monitoring system lets you know when your tire pressure is under or over inflated. Engineers also included Honda's Advanced Compatibility Engineering structure which works to distribute impact force over a larger area during an accident and away from passengers. There are also front, side and curtain airbags in place plus with active head restraints which protect against whiplash occurrences.
Honda's 2010 Crosstour would be smart choice for anyone looking for a vehicle with a clever place to store additional items and a plethora of amenities for your comfort. It offers the adaptability of a wagon and sedan in one clever package. Pricing starts at around $29k, which is in the high end for an Accord but in return, the Crosstour offers additional items not found in the regular Accord lineup.
