According to Auto Motor und Sport, Honda is working on a 4-door-coupe that will fit in the European market as a top level Accord – otherwise known to us as the Acura TSX on the stateside. Sources say that the car will most likely be a front-wheel-drive vehicle that carries over the 200-hp 4-cylinder 2.4L. A top-level Type-S versions is also being considered and will use a turbocharged 2.3L 4-cylinder making 260-hp with a DSG transmission and Honda’s SH-AWD system.
Separately, Japan’s Holiday Auto magazine reports that the 4-door Honda coupe is not to far off from production and to look out for the car during 2010. On the stateside, the car will sit between the TL and TSX in terms of size.
Holiday Auto says that the car will get similar powertrain options as the Acura ZDX, meaning we can also see Honda’s 280-hp 3.2L V6.
Styling wise, the Honda 4-door-coupe will be influenced by the ZDX.
