Honda releases new Accord concept sketch

Adjust Comment Print

Honda will officially introduce its tenth-generation Honda Accord on July 14, and to make us remember the date they made a decision to also drop by with a teaser sketch - which seems to imply the midsize sedan will be using similar design cues to the new Civic. The decline of the medium passenger auto segment locally could potentially spell the end of the Accord down under, but Honda Australia is yet to announce its position on the new-generation model. The new design was done from the scratch and the vehicle will have a more aggressive stance and sharper body proportions in comparison to the current auto.

Last week Honda treated us to a very cool teaser image of the soon to be revealed 2018 Honda Accord. The V6 is out and has been replaced by a pair of turbocharged four cylinder mills and the manufacturer's next-generation hybrid system. As the company said, it will be the "aggressive" version of the Accord.

The Japanese automaker calls the new Accord as a "dramatically styled" 10th-generation Accord, assuring that the midsize sedan is being completely remade from the ground up. Honda is also keen to point out the new Accord will be the most premium to date, as well as engaging to drive.

Presented with a standard CVT transmission, and I believe, a limited production 6-speed manual transmission, this will be the most powerful, fuel efficient standard trim Accord in the maker's history. Post the debut, the 2018 Honda Accord will be launched in the U.S, following which it will be manufactured at the company's plants in OH and Georgia. The current generation of the Accord made its way to India back in October 2016.
