New Accord Stuns Canadian International Autoshow

The Accord concept at the Canadian International Autoshow.  While not a visibly radical departure from the current model, it still is a very fetching update. The base engine is a new Earth Dreams 2.4-liter inline four-cylinder with direct injection, putting 181 horsepower and 177 pound-feet of torque to the ground via a continuously variable transmission. Honda will continue to offer a V6 in the Accord measuring 3.5 liters, mated to either a manual or automatic transmission, both with six gears.  A timeline for production of the new Accord should be early 2013. Whether it will look this good, I guess we'll have to wait & see.
