The Honda Crosstour was unveiled to the Chinese public in April this year at the Beijing Auto Show, where it seemed to attract a small niche crowd of car fans.

The Crosstour will be built by the Guangzhou-Honda JV, and Guangzhou Honda CEO Mr. Yu Jun is eager to see the Crosstour launched in China and further Guangzhou Honda’s plans for the Chinese market, Guangzhou Honda is one of the few car makers in China to reach their middle of year sales goals, whilst their end of year sales goal is still set at 380,600 vehicles.

Last week the Ministry of Industry and Communications awarded Guangzhou-Honda the right to produce the Crosstour in China. An initial run of 2000 vehicles is set to commence soon which will then be sent out to dealers for assesment and receiving deposits, the Crosstour will officially launch in October this year.
