Rear is barely acceptable, the front just looks... BLEH.

When you start designing production cars for a living your comment might be noticed.

The Crosstour idea has been around for a while as Josh pointed out.
From what I understand its got an SH-AWD design with a similar Accord Tourer body style.
I would assume that is mated to a K24 or J35 engine.
It would be comparable to an aerodynamic non turbo Subaru Forester capability wise.
Which Honda has never tried to do before.

Apparently, it is J35 with VCM. It is up in the air whether there will be a 4 banger version, but for the weight, I doubt it. Also, it most likely won't have SH-AWD, but instead VTM-4.

they should just bring back the wagon design, its like a dowplayed acura rdx, i dont like the rear

COol ... Accord Hatchback is BACK !!@!

I would have prefered it as a conventional style station wagon though... Oh well... as a USED CAR buyer, my opinion counts for nothing, ha ha ha.
