2011 Acura TSX Wagon

HI-RES GALLERY: 2011 Acura TSX Wagon

The Acura TSX Sport Wagon (nee Honda Accord Euro Tourer) is finally headed our way, and this is the first promo spot for what Acura is billing as a sports car that loses none of the TSX's ostensible prowess.

While it's hard to call a front-drive sedan a sports car with a straight face, Acura's TSX Sport Wagon commercial is interesting, in at least two respects. First, it shows a TSX sedan exhibiting what appears to be power oversteer around half of a circular skid pad (though you can clearly see the front wheels spinning and the car coming out of the Norwegian flick-induced slide at the end of the clip); second, because it uses some slick CGI to disassemble the TSX sedan and re-assemble it as a wagon, on the fly, as the car slides.

The new 2011 TSX Sport Wagon will begin arriving at dealers shortly. For more on the latest long-body from Acura, check out our coverage from the New York Auto Show unveiling here.

Fantastic ad.. the sport wagon sort of reminiscent of previous Subaru Liberty/Legacy.

Bad stuff?

Great ad and a very handsome wagon, but it's an absolute shame that neither the TSX sedan's optional manual transmission nor its V6 will be offered on the wagon. I know both are niche markets, but the engineering is essentially already done.
