Honda is little details differently than the urban SUV describe as "global concept model combines a sporty and dynamic SUV profile with a spacious and functional interior."
But as is the case with the latest Honda show cars became the urban SUV is expected to be a thinly veiled take follow a series model. It will probably come on the market, soon after opening Honda fit will provide its new plant in Mexico, a facility, the North America and other markets with the conventional small cars.

The new entry could be urban SUV for Honda for Lincoln even more important than the production. Struggling to cut back on luxury buyers get radar, 3% for the first eleven months of the year 2012, Lincoln sales have slipped even as the overall market U.S. car won around 15%.
