Why? Because money. That’s why.

Wake me up when they build an SUV that is just a larger version of this.

So another ZDX? This looks better but man was the ZDX bad. Im not even 6' and I had to duck to get into the back

It can hang out in the corner with the Eclipse Cross. Ick. That looks frightful. It looks like a BMW X1 got horribly mutilated and stuck on a truck chassis with some plastic draped over the sides to make it more cohesive. 

HFV has no HFV. But somehow has 2 motorcycles > El Relámpago(LZone) - Humanity First! 09/23/2020 at 16:01

I’d rather they just made that awesome little hatchback again.

Depending on where you live they do!

in what way is it NSX inspired?

Well, yeah, but since cars like that are dead here, I’ll take what I can get.

So what you're saying is it'll make a shit ton of money?

Not while keeping company with the Eclipse Cross. If it gets the Mach e as a sales guru yes.

 Price tag, is what I'm going to guess..

The eclipse cross would make a billion dollars with any other manufacturers badge of it

Not a Pontiac badge as it looks like an Aztec 2.0. it’s a perfectly fine car though, just not a desirable one.

I rather like my wife’s 13 Civic, but Honda utterly lost me with the next generation. That front end alone is a nightmare.

If it’s not packing the NSX power plant it can GTFO

T he nose is a bit busy, but otherwise not bad - drop their new turbo 6 in it and it’d be a competitor. Maybe I need counseling but the flanks and rear fenders give me heart palpitations .

It’ll be a neat trick to see how this ends up being mid-rear-engined like the NSX... Oh, wait, that’s not what they meant?

Turbo 6? Best I can do is a 2.0L Turbo.

Maybe the next ILX is a Civic Hatch based chassis 4WD with Hybrid Battery powered rear wheels on a SUV raised platform......

Not going to lie, I liked them.

I was thinking maybe that 3.0 turbo 6 going into the TLX type s - but you could be right... the turbo 4 is good, but would probably just be “adequate” in that application...

I don't really like how devoid of all feedback that generation of Civic was. It just felt artificially numb.  I prefer the current gen in every way.

I would agree with that assessment. It’s not very much fun to drive, but it’s tame, and my wife likes it.

It’s like a sensory deprivation tank but only in steering and brake/throttle inputs. It doesn’t have the lavish isolation from the road as something more expensive but you feel entirely disconnected from what is happening to the car. Not a feeling I like really.

Oh, great....yet another shitty SUV/Crossover to also join the sea of ugly SUVs/Crossovers.

I love the Honda ‘E’....one of few EVs I really like! BUT....Honda really shit the bed on the range with it. 260kms max...

The FIAT 500 EV that is coming out will do 320-400km, depending which range test cycle you go by...and it’s the same size (or even a bit smaller?)

I’d love to see the new 500e over here, but I HIGHLY doubt it’ll happen. If they could bring it over and keep the price down, maybe...but it’s not cheap.
