Acura Concept coming up
Last Updated:
To the New York auto show.
This “concept” is actually the “close to production” version of the car you saw her a few days ago. The spy shot of what some call the BMW X6 fighter.
The not-a-sedan, not-an-SUV,not-a-crossover, not-a-coupe and not-a-hatch new model.
We’ll what it is…
That picture looks really hot.
Boring.
Well what it is ? good thing there showing it from this angle cause Acura doesnt know how to design front or rear ends lately !
it looks a volvo c30!
A car (?)
Why is a freakin label even required?…How about “Grape Gravy”.
Vince,
Can you brighten up the picture like you did with the Tesla a few weeks ago? This one or another one available?
Isn’t “crossover” as mixed as you can get?
It’s like when you add all colors of paint together….you still get gray in the end.
-It’s not really an SUV, because they want it to be sporty and handle better. So it’s not utilitarian or able to go off-road.
-It’s not really a car, because it’s bigger like an SUV. So it’s not going to be fast or sporty, or get good gas mileage.
Like, a “sport utility vehicle,” just without the sport or utility! It’s just a “vehicle,” that’s good at nothing except being big and useless!
BRILLIANT.
Vince, What it is, is the future design of midsize crossover vehicles from not only Honda, but several companys to come. This flowing hatchback design is much like a larger version of a Toyota Prius and the new Honda Insight not by accident. These designs will also serve as soon to be ‘Midsize Hybrids’ for larger families who just can’t fit into a Prius. They will also serve double duty as midsize luxury crossover platforms as well.
considering what’s come out Acura lately (intentional innuendo about bodily orifices)…
BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID
Should the credit go to Nissan and their Infiniti FX. It seems BMW thinks there is a market with their X6. I’m sure Mercedes, and Audi have thought about it. As an Acura it wil be loaded with tech and sport but not much utility.
I saw the other profile shots on another website and I think it looks fantastic so far. A very sexy shape…

Perfect.
