*NEW* Acura CUV? http://www.acura.com/FutureVehicles....ureVehiclesCUV any thoughts? possibly just the prototype but something new coming... Acura confirmed recently a number of plans to expand its lineup with several all-new models in an attempt to compete with more established tier 1 luxury brands such as its German rivals, which currently offer full range lineups. The upmarket Honda label is limited to a handful of sedans and a pair of SUVs but the next couple of years will be very busy as the company prepares for the launch of a new coupe, a supercar, and according to these spy shots a new crossover as well. The prototype for the upcoming sporty crossover was first spotted testing at night in California’s Death Valley back in August. The latest shots show the car during the day and reveal an extremely low roofline that starts to descend after the B-pillar. This gives it a coupe-like profile similar to BMW's X6, which will be one of its main rivals. Acura is yet to reveal any specific details about a new crossover model, however the company’s vice president for corporate planning and logistics, Dan Bonawitz, confirmed recently that Acura’s first all-new model would be launched in 2010 and that it would be followed by the NSX-replacement later that same year. This means the crossover could feature a V8 engine, which Acura plans to introduce within the next 18 months. The other engine option would likely include the current 3.7L V6. Honda’s Super-Handling AWD system would also likely come as standard. http://www.auto123.com/en/news/car-n...v?artid=103799 http://www.auto123.com/ArtImages/103..._priddyi02.jpg http://www.auto123.com/ArtImages/103..._priddyi01.jpg |
looks alright, but i'd rather take the MDX |
Copying the X6 market? |
^ yeah in the article, it states that the X6 is this car's main rival... |
Looks good but looks like a Mercedez... What's the point of this kinda car? It'll only take sales away from the MDX...plus bad timing with the markets down. |
is this some kind of jokes? pulling out all those new models, especially the nsx, in a time like this is like suicidal... |
It's only a matter of time before that come up with a Sports Utility Crossover (SUX) |
nah not feeling the x6 hatchback |
Acura prototyle CUV http://www.auto123.com/ArtImages/103..._priddyi01.jpg Mazda CX9 http://images.mazdausa.com/MusaWeb/i..._CX9_ext14.jpg toyota venza http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog....-01_450-op.jpg BMW X6 http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._xDrive35i.jpg Infiniti ex http://static.howstuffworks.com/gif/...initi-ex-6.jpg Infiniti FX http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/8104/57399729.jpg did i get them all? some of them like the venza and cx9 looks more like a van/suv crossover to me.I don't really get ex as it has less rear passenger legroom than a g sedan and even with the backseat folded down it looks to have about the same trunk space as a fit :rolleyes: imo fx looks the best but i'm extremely bia;) |
^ the front of the fx looks exactly like a 37 |
Acura go nuts Doesn't look like there is much trunk space. X6 is a freaking 4 seaters. I have no idea why people will buy that shit. |
so far no one has complained about the front chrome grill... i guess it has grown into all of us |
|
when I see the title CUV, I was expecting a civic with large wheels... |
they all look freakin alike except different headlights and grills which represent the brand... |
They're all ugly. |

^ to this day i still can't see the appeal of a big car when u'r not constantly moving things. I seriously fail to see how can one's ego be boosted by having a big car/truck/SUV or wutever u call it. |
and X6 aint exactly CHEAP! $70-80g? twin turbo version and a V8 i believe? the rear doesnt have a lot of headroom for tall ppl either. i wonder what this car's msrp going to be placed at, im guessing in between RDX/MDX? |
Tail lamps are not LED? Makes it look cheap. |
not bad, wayyyyy better than the X6! |
this is the last thing acura needs. |
thats hot doubt they will build it tho in this economy |
it's called being a baller Quote:
