Looks like a compact sized fusion of a Hyundai Genesis, Lexus IS and a Mercedes-Benz C-Klasse...

Looks like they fused a Honda Accord Euro (Acura TSX) and an Audi Q5 together...

Back end looks Alfa Romeo-like...front end looks a little like the new Hyundai Santa Fe...

Obvious Hummer H2 copy is obvious...except they made it even uglier.

Looks a bit CR-V like (mainly in the front end), but in a good way. Looks pretty good...

I see a lot of Bentley-like design in this...well, at least it looks better than an actual Bentley SUV (www.webcarstory.com/voiture.php?id=7963).

Um...why is that car riding like that?

Looks like a shrunken down copy of various Bentley models.

Obvious Toyota FJ Cruiser copy...

Honestly, the 'S' in the name, and the way it looks says potential next generation Honda Stream to me.

To me, I also see a good amount of old school MG in this, mixed with a little amount of Mini, and a little bit of Nissan Juke, but mostly MG to me as well.

Front end reminds me a little of the new Honda CR-V, rest of it looks like a concept Infiniti would have designed.

Awkward looking Alfa Romeo copy? I see a lot of Giulietta and MiTo in this car.

Looks a lot like a Hyundai Sonata/i40...

Looks like they copied the current BMW 7 Series...but changed a few things to make it look a bit different.

Correction: This was introduced in 2011, but this is a 2013 model year car.

That was my first thought when I saw the back end. 'It has the DS badge, but it's not a DS9?' was what ran through my mind as well.

Strange...

I found a quote from Wikipedia:

Quote

Holden in Australia were responsible for the design and development of the hatchback body variant.

Also, there was a link attached to the quote:

I had actually forgotten the CR-V when I typed that up. Yes, the new CR-V is a pretty good product. Sat in one at an auto show. Very nice interior, looks good on the outside.

Also, the Fit/Jazz. Can't forget that nice little subcompact.

The CR-Z, on the other hand, great interior, great looks, just not a very good powertrain. Not as sporty as it should be (except for the handling, Honda got that right), not as efficient as one would expect from a hybrid.

The new Euro Civic, while I agree, is not as futuristic as it's predecessor, it's still lightyears ahead of the new US Civic.

Hopefully the CR-V is a sign that they'll turn around. I've got high hopes for the next Accord, and hopefully they don't screw it up.

This actually looks quite promising. They say a production version could go on sale within 2 years.

They'll tone down the grille and bumpers a bit, of course, but I'm sure it'll still look pretty good.

Honda announces that they'd unveil a new Crosstour in NY, everyone gets their hopes up that they'd totally redo the vehicle...then they give us this ugly monstrosity...

I'm seriously losing hope in American Honda Motor Company when it comes to cars. The only 'decent' cars they've introduced since the current Accord were the CR-Z and the new Civic Si.

Seriously, Honda...just kill the Crosstour already. It's just not worth it.

Essentially another rebadged Daewoo Lacetti. Should it be Origin: (South) Korea, Made for: China?

What about the 2011+ V10 Mopar Drag Pack (with the Viper V10), which is a factory drag car?

Apparently now badged as an AC...

Not really. The only time I ever see a CrossCabriolet is when one's sitting on the dealer lot. And even THEN, there's only ever one or two siting there. The vehicle has not been well received by automotive journalists. Nissan pretty much just wasted their time by building it.

For Land Rover? Obviously not (I mean, with the Defender, and other drop top LRs, and all). Still...they could have ended up screwing the whole thing up.

The Murano CrossCabriolet looks like they carelessly stitched the roof and rear of a 370Z onto the body of a Murano that had it's second row carefully removed.

Looks a LOT better than this, doesn't it?

Ah, the 612-based GG50. Created in celebration of 50 years of Giugiaro designs. Very nice car.
