Honda hasn’t exactly been on a product rampage lately. Stylistically the recent cars from the Honda brand haven’t been hits, but even more lately than usual – the CrossTour Crossover in particular. The latest product from Acura, the ZDX crossover is good looking and seems to have the makings of a winning product inside and out.
The next product in the pipeline looks like a winner as well. Honda has just made an announcement that the Accord Wagon will be coming to the United States.
Not as an Accord mind you, but as an Acura. The smaller European market (shows you the size difference versus ours) Honda Accord is badged on our shores as the Acura TSX and is virtually identical.
Could the wagon be making a comeback? Cadillac has recently introduced its CTS Sportwagon, one of the best looking wagons on the marketplace . If people can get past the “wagon stigma” there actually might be potential for success in the segment.
Let’s see how the TSX Sport Wagon (and the CTS Sportwagon!) fares in the marketplace. We’ll get a chance to find out late next year – Fall of 2010 is supposedly the date it will arrive. You’d think they could get it here sooner than that though – a year is a while to wait!
