2008 2009 honda accord sedan

There will be a brand new Honda Accord for the 2008 model year, also to be released as a 2009 model in some markets. Seen here is a prototype of the 2008 Honda Accord sedan undergoing tests in the United States.

The styling seems heavily derivative of the BMW 5-Series, although dumbed down for the conservative buying public. Expected engines include a 180 hp 2.4-litre inline-4 and a 270 hp 3.5-litre V6.

Honda has already shown a 2008 Honda Accord Coupe concept at a recent auto show as a hint to the styling direction of the new model.

Of course, the production Accord will not have wheels and detailing as extreme as the concept, and the Middle East market might not even get the American-built coupe.

    We always expect some thing different and elegant from Honda but unfortunately this time they are copying BMW and this is very disappointed :sad:

    Why are there so many peopl hating on the new design for honda. People want a classy car without paying a BMW or Mercedes price for it…I have the 2008 Honda Accord and I love it and it looks great and I’M NOT PAYING A FORTUNE FOR IT.
