There is some styling resemblance to the Honda Stream.

While I was rummaging around I also noticed that M/T thinks the Lattitude is still coming. This would be a tall wagon to compete with the Matrix. There was some earlier speculation that it would be the stream.
RE: Latitude / Stream
I find it really hard to believe that Honda would bother to bring another tall wagon over. They already have the Element. And with the Fit on sale in a matter of months, the Latitude would cannibalize sales from both IMO.

Furthermore, I think it's safe to assume that Toyota will not replace the Matrix; they've got the Scion brand to cover that end of the market at higher sales volume.

RE: Concept CRV
Conceptual drawings aren't all that trustworthy on average.. especially ones that are attributed to people outside of Honda. If we were talking about pictures of a test mule at the 'Ring, then I'd be more convinced.
But until you see it in sheetmetal, skepticism is the best response IMO.

And yes, that "design" is a disaster. :ugh:
