On the Russian market there is a crossover Honda Crosstour.The new model should occupy a niche between cars CR-V and Pilot, because between them there is something like a "failure".
What is going to interest the consumer developers Honda Accord Crosstour?In the first design.It is a really extraordinary.The front part is full of sharp edges, clean lines, sharp edges, while the rear is characterized by its rounded shapes.It is no secret that many elements of the exterior have been borrowed from another car - sedan Honda Accord, which is in secret, and was the ancestor of the new model.
This design is certainly that it can attract the buyer, who designed such a development - namely, fans saloons classes E and D.
no secret that the motor car Honda Crosstour's grandfather went to a volume of 3.5 liters.It should be noted that the car has increased in size.If we talk about inheritance, the rear and front suspension has also been taken from the Accord.Engineers have intensified the spring, anti-roll bars, shock absorbers, changed the wheel alignment.The front strut acquired additional podpruzhinnikami that improve the efficiency of the suspension, holding the unloaded wheel to the asphalt in the corner.
With substantial ground clearance, the crossover can cope with serious pits and potholes on the roads of our country.We should not expect that the Honda Crosstour will be able to easily overcome the snow-covered road.Another disadvantage, which can not fail to mention is the gradual build-up on the gentle waves of asphalt, as well as banks in the turns.Sometimes it seems that the driver lacks feedback.
But despite these drawbacks, the car confidently overcomes gentle arc and sufficiently tenacious hold on the road.In the event that the driver does not calculate the rate of entry into the turn, the Honda Crosstour will act as a front-drive car, straightening motion path.
What to complain about, so it's driving on unpaved.Power 3.5-liter V-type engine is 275 hpThe same engine under the bonnet adorns the Honda Legend and Pilot.Now it can be seen in the Crosstour Honda.Transmission hydromechanical presented five-step "automatic".On arms of the driver has a sport mode and the ability to change gears manually via paddle.Of an automatic transmission of claims does not cause.Switching is performed without hesitation and quite soft.
As for the car interior, here too, everything is done prudently.The driver will be pleased with the ergonomics of its place as the selection of suitable landing takes just a couple of minutes.Little can be confused when you see the front of the abundance of different buttons which are located on the center console.Having understood, everything is very clear.
In the US Honda Crosstour - it's kind of a family car.Some details have been changed by the manufacturer to a large family had to be comfortable in the car and use the various functions.
