2011 Honda Crosstour: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
For 2011, the Honda Crosstour received a light equipment update rather than a redesign. The biggest change was that navigation and a rearview camera became standard on the EX-L trim.
About the 2011 Honda Crosstour
1st generation Accord Crosstour/Crosstour (2010-2015), second model year and still before the 2013 refresh.
Honda presented the Crosstour as an Accord-based vehicle that mixed sedan comfort with hatchback usefulness and a slightly higher seating position. Its core draw was standard V6 power, a quiet cabin, flexible cargo space behind a liftgate, and car-like road manners instead of the taller, boxier feel of a traditional SUV. It was aimed at shoppers who wanted more day-to-day usefulness than an Accord sedan, but did not want to move to a conventional crossover.
The EX was the straightforward 2011 Crosstour, with a 271-hp V6, a moonroof, dual-zone climate control, power front seats, and a split-folding rear seat. The more comfort-focused EX-L added leather, heated front seats, Bluetooth, upgraded audio connections, 18-inch wheels, standard navigation, and a standard rearview camera.
