The Honda Accord Tourer Concept presented at IAA Frankfurt features a wider, lower, and sportier look compared to other Honda Accord models. The aggressive and sporty exterior styling of the Honda Accord Tourer Concept is complemented by the car’s comfortable and functional interior with spacious cabin. This offers a “strong degree of versatility and practicality,” according to the Japanese automaker.

At the heart of this new Honda concept comes a 2.4-litre VTEC petrol engine. Honda is also planning to include the newly developed 2.2-litre DTEC next-generation diesel engine in the powertrain lineup. All engines comply with the EURO 5 emissions standards. Other details of the Honda Accord Tourer Concept will be revealed at the upcoming IAA Motor Show. Also on the Honda stand is the Civic Hybrid 24H Race.

Meanwhile, Honda Motor Europe is also poised to present other production and concept models, as well as new powertrain systems at the IAA Frankfurt. First off is Small Hybrid Sports Concept that was developed at Honda R&D in Offenbach, Germany.

European car fans should expect this new concept to have these features like IMA petrol/electric hybrid powertrain system, two-door sports coupe design, short front and rear overhangs, accentuated arrow-like nose, one-piece glass roof, additional vertical window and a good power to weight ratio.
