explain to me the reasoning behind the term SUV/SUT????
simple physics will dictate that anything built on said-purpose platform will not be sporty.
a honda accord will run circles around a honda pilot.
a TL will run circles around an MDX.
a Lincoln LS will run circles around a navigator.
and so on......
it's annoying.

For SUTs, it is like a truck which can go off-road... Meh, that one is a little bit more confusing.

Maybe they should rename it Slow Utility Vehicle!

I think the inside will get a significant makeover, they always do. However I'd be willing to bet the outside stays similar, cause thats exactly what they need.
The bigger question, is what will the powertrain be? I would love to see it as a hybrid that gets 40MPG (no realistic, but aiming high). Perhaps just drop the accord hybrid system in there. Good enough for me, I'd be the first to buy.
And the even bigger question, when do we see the production model?
And the still even bigger question, when do we see the replacement for the NSX?

It looks like the offspring of a Lexus and a Nissan...not very unique looking to me! I guess I was secretly hoping for "something completely different"
