With wagons appearing to come back in favor in the U.S., Acura has joined the growing trend with its all-new 2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon. Based on the 2011 Acura TSX sedan platform, Acura says the Sport Wagon is intended to offer a balance of a dose of driving performance and more versatile cargo carrying capability than the standard sedan.

Pricing for the Sport Wagon starts at $31,820, which includes a mandatory $860 destination charge. The pricing represents a roughly $1,400 premium over Sport Wagon's sedan counterpart.
The $3,650 Technology Package mostly mirrors the conventional four-door 2011 Acura TSX by adding goodies like navigation, a rearview camera, an upgraded ELS audio system. Unlike the sedan, a power liftgate comes with the package.

The 2011 Acura TSX Sport Wagon comes with just one powertrain configuration: A five-speed automatic transmission mated to a 2.4-liter, 201-horsepower four-cylinder gasoline engine, which Acura says is good for 30 mpg on the highway, and 22 mpg in the city.
Like the sedan, the Sport Wagon is sporting an all-new front fascia that includes a revised chin spoiler, new fog light garnish assembly and an updated grille. The updated front end teams with new (to the sedan) underbody panels to improve aerodynamics.

Now, when one opts for a wagon over a sedan they are most likely doing so with utility and hauling in mind, so the Sport Wagon features 60.5 cubic feet of rear cargo area (with rear seats folded down; 25.8 cu-ft with the seats up). Loading the vehicle will have to come through the wagon's rear opening height of approximately 28-inches.

In addition to the traditional rear storage space, the Sport wagon also features four hidden compartments for out-of-sight storage. A 2.4 cu-ft storage area is located beneath a lift-up hatch within the load floor. Smaller items can be placed in a 0.2 cu-ft storage area (hidden by a removable panel) located in the side panel on the driver side, or in one of two 13-inch long storage areas near the main in-floor storage area.

The rear seats come in a 60/40 fold-down design, allowing one section to be lowered to generate more cargo room while the other section can remain in the up position to accommodate a rear seat passenger. Or, both seats can be folded down to attain the maximum cargo area replete with a load-flat floor that is nearly 70-inches long, complete with a variety of tie-down hooks for keeping cargo items secure.
