Honda crosstour 2013 - sales of the updated Crosstour first began in the USA, where the car appeared in November 2012. In May 2013, a restyled five-door got and to the Ukrainian market. It is noteworthy that the company did not limit itself only to “plasticity”, but also seriously modernized the V-shaped “six”, to which a new six-speed automatic was attached at the same time.
It is also important that in order to increase demand, the representative office of Honda in Ukraine has finally begun to supply basic mono-drive versions with a less powerful four-cylinder engine of 2.4 liters (192 hp, 220 Nm).
Added to the power of 6 hp. the V6 3.5L engine of the Earth Dreams family (281 hp and 342 Nm) with variable valve timing (i-VTEC) and cylinder deactivation (VCM) systems made the Crosstour more dynamic. Now, for acceleration to “hundreds”, an almost five-meter car (4,999 mm) requires 8.1 s instead of 8.9 s in the case of its predecessor. Not the last merit in this belongs to the new six-speed automatic, which replaced the five-speed unit. In addition, all versions with a six-cylinder engine received a steering wheel with gearshift paddles.
Under the hood of the initial modification, which began to be offered in Ukraine, the “four” 2.4 i-VTEC is installed. Paired with it is a five-speed automatic transmission. One hundred kilometers per hour, this version is gaining in 11.1 seconds.
Cars with a 2.4-liter engine are offered exclusively in front-wheel drive, and with a 3.5-liter engine - only with the proprietary Real Time 4WDTM system, which connects the rear axle during climbs, active acceleration, and also in case of front wheel spin.
External facelift Honda Crosstour 2013 model year consists of new bumpers with silver "off-road" overlays, upgraded front optics, as well as a modified false radiator grille.
Inside, a new steering wheel appeared, an improved multimedia system with an 8-inch display, the picture on which became clearer.
The basic list of passive and active safety, including 8 airbags and a motion stabilization system, was expanded by monitoring the blind spot on the starboard side. The LaneWatch system consists of a video camera built into the right side mirror. The image from it is displayed on the central display. The latest generation received exactly the same system. Honda Accord. An example of her work is shown in the video:
For top trim levels with a 281-horsepower engine, a proprietary noise reduction system in the Active Noise Control cabin is available. It is arranged very simply - several internal microphones "monitor" sounds, and standard acoustics broadcast them in antiphase.
