I have a 2012 crosstour v6 4x4 and i love it. It drives awesome, has lots of room, has some balls for a 4000lb car. And is great in snow. I always like them bc they were differnt.
I just bought a used 2013 Honda Crosstour. I has exceeded my expectations in every category. It's very well designed and built. I've always had Honda' and Toyota's. Both are great car manufacturers.
I bought a FWD V6 2013 CrossTour, was a previous owner of a long line of Acura TL's (3.2), and this car is just great -- handles more smoothly than my TLs, fast pick-up, sticks on turns without that tilting feeling you get from SUVs, great video placement for lane changes and parking, and fun to drive. It looks exotic, and it makes you "one of a kind" on the road. I was originally looking at Audis, and now they are a "dime a dozen" on the road.
Thats a great question. I think people tend to dislike what the don't understand. If you drove and owned this car you would understand the greatness of it. jason
I currently drive the Crosstour 2010 and still love it. I know the design is a bit controversial but personally, I like it. I like the driving position also, not too high, not too low, just perfect. The rear seats are EXTREMELY comfortable with tons of leg/head room. I heard the sale for the CT are up 20% and I'm really glad to hear that. It's a great all-around car. I start seeing them a lot more here in Montreal. I will probably get the 2013 or 2014 soon depending when it comes out.
After getting tired of looking for a BMW 328I and hearing all the problems they had. This is breath of fresh air to me. Too bad they quit making them. I will be looking for one.
Yo Jason, longgg time fan and Honda lover. I’ve always wanted one of these things and needed a daily after my lease was up on my crv. Maybe the best decision I ever made was last week buying a 2015 Crosstour EX-L v6 AWD with nav, FULLY LOADED, 26k miles, clean title, single owner. Jason this car is absolutely mf amazing, like truly, it’s a hidden gem. Thanks man, for making this video & making me always want one! Hope your type r is still doing well if u still have it, very jealous lol.
Yes they discontinued it because no one likes the look of them then. Truly they were just ahead of their time because now it's sedan SUV crossovers everywhere on the road. They should bring them back! I'm currently driving my second one and I love it. It drives so smoothly, is very reliable and I love the features. The trunk space alone is worth it! I put a 55 inch TV in the back with just one seat down.
Wondering if the iluminated button light on the central and on the door has during the day because mine no iluminated works during the day or night. Thanks for your help.
Good question justjohn025, the Bluetooth, Bluetooth audio, 8" screen with back up camera and USB are all standard. Lane watch camera with touch audio screen comes with all leather models, Push button start comes with the V6 engine. Thank you for watching, HondaPro Jason
I bought the metallic and get nothing but compliments on its elegance. This car should not be compared to SUVs or cross-overs -- it's REALLY an overgrown and very convenient over-sized sports car!!!! Rides better than my previous car, an Acura TL, and is cheaper to service.
I purchased an 11 crosstour and I got to say, given the incremental updates, the 11 is a great vehicle. I love it. I'm sure the 13s are just as nice if not better! Great walk-through
I did some research and it seems that IIHS rated it as a 'good' rating and it has not been tested on their new "small overlap" test so that's there highest rating the car could get. Thanks for your question and feedback Jason
I have 280,000 business miles on my 2013 crosstour. Other than tires and oil changes...... I’ve had to spend nothing else on it. Just an outstanding car.
Thank You and All great questions The 2013 Crosstour holds its value about 4% less then a 2013 Honda Accord. I don't think Honda is going to dis-continue the model. We need to keep the Crosstour as a AWD sedan in the line up. You should stop at a dealer and drive the car. It drives, handles and sounds great. Let me know what you think, Jason
why do people hate this car so much? I mean to be honest it looks kinda cute. I mean it does look a bit bizarre, but besides that I would totally get this car.
Never understood why this doesnt do better. It basically an accord wagon. You get extra space and a choice of an ultra fuel efficient inline four or an Award winning J series 3.5L V6! Power and practicality plus a double wishbone front suspension (something most others dont have anymore!) Also a plethora of standard and additional features!!!!!
I just bought a 2013 ex-l non nav, dual climate and everywhere I'm seeing I shouldn't replace the stock radio. But those W screen and ugly and boring. What key features would I lose access to ml
I’m a Honda fanboy, and this is the best Honda I’ve ever had, had the accord 2012 ex and had a accord 1998 ex and a accord 2004 ex, all of them good cars but nothing compares to the Crosstour!
I bought a 13 Crosstour last year. I love it. Only negative I have about it is the auto dim mirror doesn’t work well. I am guessing it is because it is in line with the split in the hatch windows. Other than that 126000k on and it’s a great car, summer and winter.
I can't find a good picture of the side molding. I'm not a big fan of it on the Crosstour because I love the lines the car has. One the other hand I do like the splash guards I think they help prevent chips and road grime If I can find a good picture I will post it on my FB for you Jason
HondaProJason--- which cover you would get for this car_ and also...also, i have seen that some crosstour have the plastic bed over the carpet_----- help...where can i buy it_ gracias....
hey guys...help...how to update Navi on a ::: 2013 Honda Crosstour EX-L? gracias.... tomorrow I am going to get the car hopefully ......the dealer will budge ... for the my final price...
Hi Jason, i need your help. i was searching on internet to find out how to solve my problem with my 2013 Crosstour. i found this video. Monitor of my car is stop working after 5 mins of starting engine, and i cannot control anything like volume or multimedia features. how i solve this ? and i was searching for a way how to reset the whole multimedia and monitor !!
Just got a 2013 Crosstour,so I enjoyed the information you shared. I can not figure out how to adjust the brightness of the dashboard lights?????? Can you help?
My question is where in the world can you purchase this model??? I have a 2012 and I love my cat. But here in Michigan they don't make anymore. I want an upgrade!!!!
Been looking st SUVs for something more versatile then my 2021 Covic Hstchbsck but I am considering one of these. It has basically the tech my car has plus I can get a 4WD version. I'm going to test drive one very soon.
Great video… I have a 2015 model. Do you know what device would be compatible in order to add CarPlay? I’ve seen a few dongle devices & also audio shops that will replace the entire interface. What’s your opinion on this?
Thank you again for your follow up. The websites that you checked are not correct. I took a photo of the engine in the 2013 Honda Crosstour. V6 and would love to share it with you. Please email me (my email can be found in the description above. Thank You again HondaPro Jason
i'm almost ready to buy. just have couple of questions..Is the crosstour is roomy than accord in the back seat area? Does it have any difference in height when compared to accord?...Thanks!
Jason, there seems to be a real disconnect between regular folks who seem to love this car, as evidenced by the many positive consumer reviews on KBB and Edmunds, and the "expert" reviewers who just as uniformly trash it in their reviews. What is your opinion of the driving/handling of the Crosstour? Why do you think there is such a disconnect between professional reviewers and consumers on this car?
I just ran across this video and do I ever feel stupid. I've had my 2014 Crosstour V6 EX-L for over five years and did not know about the armrest being adjustable, and worst of all I did not know that the windows and moonroof could be activated with the fob. Anyway, mine is a great car and I'm sorry Honda let it die on the vine like they did.
I wish they had continued making these.. a AWD hatch version of the current 2018+ model would look amazing!
I have a 2012 crosstour v6 4x4 and i love it. It drives awesome, has lots of room, has some balls for a 4000lb car. And is great in snow. I always like them bc they were differnt.

how many miles?
I wish they brought back the 2022 new version of the Honda Crosstour just like they did the 2021 Toyota Venza.

I agree and many more Hondas are coming out with 4WD or AWD.
Thanks for watching

Never replaced the timing belt?
Thank You all for making this my 8th Honda Video to reach over 100k views :-)
no prob n thank you for the questions and feedback :-) Also we should see the Earth Dreams engine next in the CRV, and the 2014 Fit :-)
You will really enjoy it
Jason
Will hopefully be buying a used 2014. Wanted one for so long that I don't care if it is used. And your video just made me love it more.
Awesome & thank you
Great job, was on the fence, now im buying one
Thats one of my favorite features to show people
Here is my 7th video to reach over 100K views :-D Thank You all for the Honda Love and Support #Honda
Good walk around Jason
Super car!!
+HondaPro Jason Great review, too bad Honda discontinued the vehicle!
Do you know the reason why?
TWTR4EVER I believe just slow sales was the main reason for discontinuing the Crosstour
I’ve had this car for several years and didn’t know about some of these features!
So happy you learned some new cool tips & tricks
yes it does. They are only making a few
Just picked one up! Now we have my 2011 Accord Coupe EX 5MT, moms 2012 Civic EX and dads new 2013 Crosstour EX-L V6 gotta love Honda products!
Thank You and I think on the Crosstour the body side moldings take away from the style and lines but I like them on the new Accord ;-)
Jason
Excellent demo vid, Jason! Really like all your vids. Love all the Honda innovation found in all there vehicles, especially for MY2013.

Exactly I just bought mine last Saturday!!
Because its ugly to most people. If they made it look better it might have sold better
I just bought a 2013 ex-l non nav, dual climate and everywhere I'm seeing I shouldn't replace the stock radio. But those W screen and ugly and boring. What key features would I lose access to ml
Hondatrix, I'm not sure what KR spec is. Honda is starting to come out with more performance/tech high-line trim levels.
Wow this car is awesome! Like the changes on the 2013
I’m a Honda fanboy, and this is the best Honda I’ve ever had, had the accord 2012 ex and had a accord 1998 ex and a accord 2004 ex, all of them good cars but nothing compares to the Crosstour!
i have checked several sites and they seem to show the old injection system on the crosstour for 2013, even the 6.
thanks for the review though,
Never heard or saw this car before, quite nice I must say
Honda has changed and added to this vehicle to attract more buyers
Good job I like the changes in the new crosstour
Yes of course I used it to attract people. It was given to me buy a friend of the Crosstours owner.
I bought a 13 Crosstour last year. I love it. Only negative I have about it is the auto dim mirror doesn’t work well. I am guessing it is because it is in line with the split in the hatch windows. Other than that 126000k on and it’s a great car, summer and winter.

I recently bought this car and I love it. Only thing I hate is after I bought it I found out it comes in AWD v6
This one is a touring car. So for longer drives this is the clear winner. If its just around town, the CRV is great and will save you some cash.
Thank you for your feedback and for watching.
Bring the Crosstour back, they was ahead of the game, just when everyone caught up, Honda stop making the Crosstour.
Honda does a lot of stupid stuff, like dropping the Element that a lot of people loved.
I agree with you
Compré uno en México, quiero saber si el cofre o capo es el mismo del año 2011
Yes and its how they did it that's most impressive
HondaProJason--- which cover you would get for this car_ and also...also, i have seen that some crosstour have the plastic bed over the carpet_----- help...where can i buy it_ gracias....
I want to own this car when I get that chance hopefully!
Thank you Mr. Blunt
is it possible to disable the warnings for lane changing wo sig and ahead proximity distance? Those would be very irritating, I think.
You ROCK HONDAPRO!!!!
My brother just bought this car!
hey guys...help...how to update Navi on a ::: 2013 Honda Crosstour EX-L? gracias.... tomorrow I am going to get the car hopefully ......the dealer will budge ... for the my final price...
In term of reliability?
Love that small mid window like i got on my CRZ ...Looking to get one but not sure the best year to buy...
Hi Jason, i need your help. i was searching on internet to find out how to solve my problem with my 2013 Crosstour. i found this video.
Monitor of my car is stop working after 5 mins of starting engine, and i cannot control anything like volume or multimedia features.
how i solve this ?
and i was searching for a way how to reset the whole multimedia and monitor !!
You Are Wonderfully Pleasant In Your Videos! Thank You!
OH YEA!!! congrats :-) Thank you for the update I agree with the "one of a kind" feeling. What color did you get?
Jason
Just got a 2013 Crosstour,so I enjoyed the information you shared. I can not figure out how to adjust the brightness of the dashboard lights?????? Can you help?
Little knob at the right side of the speedometer. Rotate it..u will get it
Brightness control button below screen select buttons.
😂
That Crosstour Looks Exceptional, like a luxury vehicle :D
My question is where in the world can you purchase this model??? I have a 2012 and I love my cat. But here in Michigan they don't make anymore. I want an upgrade!!!!
Can u show us how to view dealer mode
Been looking st SUVs for something more versatile then my 2021 Covic Hstchbsck but I am considering one of these. It has basically the tech my car has plus I can get a 4WD version. I'm going to test drive one very soon.
The windows down in the summer is sweet. I have not seen that on any other car
I would much rather have remote start like my 2007 GM Avalanche has. They could have put it in for about the same price as the window down feature.
Fantastic review!
love the improvements & especially the earthdreams engine
Thought they got a honda Ridgeline motor 3.5
HP, can you check with AHM if they build this in KR spec...?
What about the 2015 model CT?
This car is really growing on me. Thanks for the thorough review, Jason!
Jason, this was helpful. What's the safety on the 2013? I found 4 out of 5 stars but expected better from Honda.
Great video… I have a 2015 model. Do you know what device would be compatible in order to add CarPlay? I’ve seen a few dongle devices & also audio shops that will replace the entire interface. What’s your opinion on this?
i think replacing the audio unit would be best to add Apple CarPlay

any idea why honda didt make new crz?
How hard & expensive would it be to convert a 2.4L Crosstour from an automatic to a 6-speed manual from the 2.4L Accord???
😂
Hey Honda fans, Did you know?
#Honda #HondaCrosstour
How can I fold the rear mirrors ??
Does the side mirror tilting work with the accord?
Nice. I love the computerized dashboard.
I'm getting some Honda Love from a Honda dealership :-)
Thank you, I don't want to be just another guy talking about horsepower, torque rating, and the geometry of the suspension for 20 mins :-)
Very informative video thanks 👍
I found one that has it right, thanks, keep up the good work.
thanks for the follow-up.
Can you do a detail video on the accord sport

Great video... Keep them coming :-)
This is the top of the line 2013 Crosstour I assume. How do you think the basic EX 2WD differs from this one?
I just ran across this video and do I ever feel stupid.
