SubOperator Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 Even if the Audi starts where the Subaru ends in price its still a little disconcerting for Subaru. Audi isn't trying to get all the Subaru Outback buyers. They just want to entice the ones who are willing to jump price, or the ones who aren't that enamored with Subaru and its new giant sized Outback. Price is a big issue though. BUT here comes Honda too... http://www.leftlanenews.com/honda-accord-crossover.html this mule accelerated rather briskly, so the 2.3L, four-cylinder turbo motor from the RDX may have a chance of making it into the Accord CUV. One thing we can say for sure about this vehicle is that AWD will be an option. A close look at this prototype reveals that it has a rear differential. More than likely, this means the car has Honda’s VTM-4 AWD system.

iyalla Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 That thing looks hideous.... It looks bad because its actually supposed to be the TSX wagon. But they have to graft the US Accord face on to it. This is how it should look http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2008/04/2009-honda-accord-tourer-image-galore.html Not much better but the Honda fans will snap it up.

MJ in PA Posted May 7, 2009 Share Posted May 7, 2009 That Accord wagon looks better than the new Outback imo! And are those folding mirrors I see? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toronto_Dave Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 Would be great if that came to North America as either a Honda or an Acura with a 6-speed diesel and AWD. Interior looks better than the new Outback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSRBIKER Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 I agree Matt that looks a lot better than the new Outback, they said it might have the RDX 2.3 turbo motor in it....if it comes with a manual trans this might be my next vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick D. Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I was giving some thought to the Audi, but if the Honda comes with a turbo, I would start my shopping there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
