New York Auto Show Preview - Acura TSX Sport Wagon
March 9, 2010 |13:02 | Gossips By : Team X
Finally! Acura will introduce its handsome TSX Sport Wagon at the New York auto show at the end of March, the company announced Monday.
The all-new wagon will go on sale in the fall as a 2011 model, Acura said, confirming its announcement last October.
The Sport Wagon is based on the European Honda Accord Tourer (not to be confused with the United States-spec Accord Crosstour).
Acura is holding Sport Wagon details close to the vest, including engine options, though it’s a good bet that it will be available with the engines that are currently available in the TSX: a 2.4-liter 4-cylinder and a 3.5-liter V-6. In Europe, the wagon comes with diesel options, but Honda does not sell diesel engines in the United States.
While popular in Europe, wagons have been pretty much banished from America showrooms, where the crossover is the preferred species du jour. In fact, Ford recently unveiled its Focus wagon at the Geneva auto show, and even though Ford will begin selling its new Focus in the United States early next year, the wagon will be for Europeans only.
