2008 Honda Accord On the Way

2008 Honda Accord On the Way

While Honda is working on its new Accord, other cars in its class like the Toyota Camry are booming in sales. Toyota’s new Camry has been accepted by sports sedan lovers and the hybrid version is being applauded by enviromentally concious drivers. Also, competition from the new Nissan Altima (with a coupe version on the way) gives the new Honda Accord a lot to live up to. So far there have been some photo renderings of the 2008 Honda Accord but the official production design is due in 2007. The car will have a larger wheel base with some design elements of the new Civic. Other then that the car is expected to be close to these photo renderings you see here. There will also be a new coupe launched as well.

There are also rumors of a new Honda Accord hybrid due out by 2009. Check out some images of the concept for now.

    That blue concept looks like the acura line.

  • Brad

    This is an amazing concept. If this concept makes it to production in any form as this picture it will blow away the sales of Camry. It has accents of the Acura TL and lines of the Pontiac G6. I think Honda has made an amazing concept vehicle that if put into production near this form at all, it will have astronomical sales worldwide.

    Woooooooow!

    Both the accord sedan and coupe concepts are cool. I hope the actual production somewhat mirrors them.
    I have the new civic coupe and am very pleased with it.

    “…will blow Camry’s sales”

    yea, right…You don’t topple years of success, with one car design. I like the way the new Honda Civic coupe looks..it’s hot. I like the way the dashboard makes you feel like you’re in a jet, but for the most part…I need a V6..I test drove a Civic coupe..but went with the toyota solara v6. The way the current Accord looks, I’d never buy one.

    ATTN: HONDA CEO, Takeo Fukui,

    “GREAT BODY DESIGN IMPROVEMENTS”

    But what about AWD as a option & I hope it’s not low to the ground like the Acura TL!

  • airgate

    I find it hard to believe that someone would test drive a Civic Coupe…that has a nearly 40mpg 4 cylinder and expect it to perform like a V6. A Solara V6 can’t be compared to a Civic Coupe as they are two very different cars. The Solara was a waste of your $.

    “but for the most part…I need a V6..I test drove a Civic coupe..but went with the toyota solara v6″

    Uhh, what?

    First, why do you “need” a V6? Isn’t the car wrapped around the engine just as important?

    Second, if you are enough of a driving enthusiast to “need” a V6, why the Solara? The car’s like rolling novacaine. That’s like an offroader picking a CR-V for rockcrawling. Does not compute.

    I am SO excited for the 08 Accord and these pics excite me even more. This will be my third Accord – 2000, 2005 (currently own) and an 08. Bring it on, Honda!

  • Gregg

    This blue Accord above just blows my mind. I want it and I want it now. I owuld trade in my current 2005 Accord even now. I love this design – it’s so sporty and classy. Give it to me now. Please!!!!

    I leased my first Honda Accord in 2005 and wrecked it…a total loss. I went back and leased a 2006 Honda Accord because I was amazed at how the Accord held up in the crash. At the dealership, the sales manager informed me that the 2008 would have a whole new body style and feature BlueTooth. I can’t wait until the 08 is released because I will be turning my lease in early to lease the 08. The new design is very similar to the Acura TL and will cost less than the TL. EXCELLENT JOB, HONDA!!!!

    Okay. I’ve seen this photo going around, and frankly, I’m not believing this will be the appearance of the ’08 sedan. It looks too short and stubby. There are sites on-line that show a different concept that looks like a stretched version of the current Civic, and I find that more believable

  • flyboy

    i just bought the 2007 honda accord , i havent done 600 miles on the car yet and i am ready to trade it in for the 2008

  • Will

    Oh my…I’m on the fence right now. I currently own a 97 Civic LX. I’m ready to buy! I’ve got the TSX, current Accord coupe, and the Altima on my list. I can’t wait to see what this 08 Accord sedan looks like. If it looks anything like the rendering (remember people, it’s a RENDERING), SIGN ME UP!
