European Honda Accord

Honda has been testing its 2.2 CTDi diesel engine since some time now. S_budhiraj a team-bhpian spotted this Accord under test. As seen in the images, it has red UP16 plates which is used by none other then Honda. This seems to be the Accord sold in the European markets or maybe the one sold in the States as the Acura TSX.

Certainly Honda won’t be launching it as an Accord. If they do launch it, it will carry Honda’s premium badge Acura. The above car sounded like a diesel and Honda has been planning to get the Acura range in India. We can’t really pinpoint what Honda plans to do, they still have not launched the CRV Diesel, but Honda needs to get diesels as Indians love diesel cars.
