2012 Honda Crosstour EX-L

The Crosstour is Honda's crossover that blends a sedan-like ride with hatchback practicality, a niche few rivals occupy. It drives smoothly on the highway and around town, with enough power to merge confidently, though it's not a sporty handler. Inside, you get a roomy cabin that seats five comfortably, plus a huge cargo area that makes it a great road-trip vehicle. The sloping rear window creates a noticeable blind spot, so the available rearview camera is a real help when backing up. Leather upholstery, heated front seats, and a power moonroof are what set the EX-L apart from the EX, plus a few extra comfort upgrades inside. The EPA rates it at 24 mpg combined, which is solid fuel economy for a roomy crossover.
