Yes. Honda CrossRoads, otherwise known as the Japanese Humvee.
All models sold in Singapore are the 2WD version. The 4WD is an option for an extra $8000. :)

1.8L??? Isn't it gonna be severely underpowered for a car of that size?

I don't think so... I've seen it before, it's not very big.. around CRV size or slightly bigger. I would say it's a mini Hummer.

Oh okay, then 1.8L should do just fine. I can't imagine a car the size of a hummer being powered by a NA 1.8L :hat1:

It has practically zero boot space and doesn't even have a spare tire. :think:

BMW Z4 also dont have spare tire....
I had a long think about this car and thought that the design of this car was very smart.
Targeting those buyers who cannot afford the Hummer nor able to maintain the cost of running a Hummer. A first would be a cut down engine, a bare 1.8L is enough to get this car going. "hey, if you want it cheaper than a Hummer, a 1.8L will do" not only would it or should have better FC but also keep the taxes low.
It is a very smart approach in terms of the niche of this car, especially with countries such as SG have heavy taxes on large capacity engines.

I do believe it will be fairly underpowered but this is a city car, not a off road car. Anyways, you would want to drive slow so people can see you car...if you drive too fast, people wont be able to catch a glimps of you...Thats why I drive my Z4 so slow now....:P

The crossroad should be in black or dark olive green. Then get silver colour wordings decals/stickers saying "Crime Scene Investigation" splashed across the side.
Add in a few dummy antennas as well.
Then you are set.:)

hummer for midgets =D
saw a few on the road, and somehow looks weird. Big and boxy is fine like the hummer, but small and boxy reminds me of a old Daihatsu ><

140hp on a 1.8l is pretty good and its a pretty alright for a car that size... too bad its not a manual...
