When the all-new 2013 Accord Coupe Concept was introduced at the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, the press got a taste of what to expect from the ninth-generation Accord.
Its bold, athletic profile is only the beginning. A choice of three powertrains will be available: an efficient, 2.4-liter direct-injected 4-cylinder, a powerful 3.5-liter V-6 and a plug-in hybrid, all of which are expected to achieve class-leading fuel efficiency[1].
Both the Coupe and Sedan will show off a host of new technologies along with an entirely new design. And while both will retain their current spacious cabin size, the Sedan's exterior will be more compact, creating a more aggressive appearance.
The 2013 Accord will introduce features that are new for any Honda. Lane Departure Warning (LDW)[2], Forward Collision Warning (FCW)[3] and the Honda-exclusive LaneWatch� blind spot display[4].
The Accord has been one of the best-selling cars in America since its introduction 36 years ago. And it's poised to continue this tradition when it hits the streets next fall.

[2] LDW only alerts drivers when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. LDW may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and road condition. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
[3] FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy will vary based on weather, speed and other factors. FCW does not include a braking function. Driver remains responsible for safely operating vehicle and avoiding collisions.
[4] Display accuracy will vary based on weather, size of object and speed, and the display may not show all relevant traffic. The display is not a substitute for your own direct visual assessment of traffic conditions before changing lanes.
