Honda revealed some detail shots and a teaser video of the European-spec Accord in January 2008, before debuting it at Geneva Motor Show in March. The new Accord comes in both saloon and wagon forms, offering a host of engine and transmission options. Available engines are the 2.0-litre and 2.4-litre i-VTEC petrol engines, as well as the 2.2-litre i-DTEC diesel engine. All engines come with a 6-speed manual transmission, while the petrol engines get in addition to that a 5-speed automatic transmission. Dimensionally, the Accord has become longer, wider, and lower for a sleek, sporty look, along with sharper body lines and slightly redesigned headlights. Honda has built the Accord on its new ACE body structure, available with a host of new safety features.

It went on sale in Japan and Europe in mid-2008. It is also available in US and Canada as the second-generation Acura TSX.
