2010 Honda Accord Crosstour – Click above for high-res image gallery<\/small><\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n

\nThe 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour<\/a> hasn’t won too many fans amongst the automotive press, and while we’re sure it fills the Accord Wagon space in Honda’s lineup, the way the Crosstour has a foot both in the wagon and CUV realms still has us scratching our heads. Taking a peek at what’s being cross-shopped against Honda’s latest offering proves potential customers are in the same boat.<\/p>\n

Fitting every car into a neat categorical box is a fool’s errand, but the Crosstour is apparently making everyone wonder just where it belongs. According to early Edmunds’ data, buyers seem to think the Crosstour competes most closely with the Toyota Venza<\/a>, with ToMoCo’s wagon-on-stilts being cross-shopping against the Crosstour more than any other vehicle. Other Honda models are also heavily considered against the Crosstour, according to Edmunds Auto Observer, as are a panoply of other cars. Luxury rides like the Audi A4<\/a> and BMW 3 Series<\/a> wind up in the comparison column, as do more traditional crossovers like the Chevrolet Equinox<\/a> and Toyota RAV-4<\/a>. <\/p>\n

While the Crosstour has been called lots of unflattering things, it’s clear that figuring out whether it’s neatly described as fish or fowl is more of a thorny chestnut. That said, none of this is exactly important if the car is generating showroom traffic and moving units. <\/p>\n
