In the mountains of Canada, Brenda Priddy & Company managed to obtain a set of images of the new Honda Accord Coupe and Sedan undisguised during a brochure photoshoot. Both models look great with their individual design characteristics that distinguish each other. The Coupe sticks to the Accord Coupe Concept, unveiled at the Detroit Autoshow this year. However, in our opinion, the production version looks more sophiscated and elegant. Both the Coupe and Sedan snapped here are the EX-V6 trims, which are the range-toppers in its line-up.
According to Jalopnik and previous speculations, the Accord will be available with two powertrain options. The 4-cylinder 2.4L is expected to pump 180HP, while the V6 model will churn 270HP. That's equivalent to the Altima V6 and 2 more horsepowers than the Camry V6.
We were able to catch a first glimpse of the facelifted 2008 Honda Odyssey in one of the pics (front 3/4 of Accord Coupe). The blue car behind the Coupe is indeed the new Odyssey and it seems to be wearing a similar grille to the Accord. The embargo is expected to be lifted in the first week of September with sales proceeding before the end of the year. However, we still recall Autoweek's article on the new Accord, when they stated that it will be unveiled on August 21st.
