I thought they used other vehicles for testing. It's not 05RL.

Although they look like those 05RL's spy shots/accord/inspire, I'd say it's definitely not 05RL.

Might this be available in the 05" TL? Does Honda offer AWD in other models?

The news just disclosed the info about the new prototype 05RL... nothing about what it looks like... IMO.

the mdx and pilot have awd in the form of VTM-4.
the c-rv has Real Time awd, a much less sophisticated system.

those are official sketches of the 05RL, BUT the car in the vid is an Inspire using the 05RL's drivetrain.
