Honda Accord Coupe HF-S Concept

While the earlier HFP Accord Coupe we saw was done up by American Honda, this Honda Accord Coupe HF-S Concept was done by Honda Access America Inc, Honda’s U.S. accessory development team. It conceptually includes both design and powertrain upgrades – which basically means while the prototype shown is a purely cosmetic do-up, Honda Access promises powertrain upgrade in the future.

The Honda Accord HF-S Concept has a new front bumper design that incorporates LED driving lights. It is also shaped in order to create a vortex effect, enhancing high-speed aerodynamics and engine cooling. On the sides, specially shaped panels made of carbon fiber decrease negative speed force around the wheel arches.

    not bad..but i still dont like the center console as well as the whole dashboard..i wonder when will they change it to a much futuristic design such as the new 2008 fit or even the cr-z concept..

    The Accord is supposed to be an executive saloon. Why are they trying to portray a sports/GT image instead?? Use another model if they want to do this. Very inappropriate to use the Accord.

    @Avanza

    Honda always had a 2 door version of its Accord since they launched it in the 70s. (Even the Legend had a very nice looking 2 door version)

    The 2 door has always been the more performance orientated version. The last version that I drove had a very sweet 3.5L V6 and a 6 speed manual. Its big, comfy, quiet and fast when you need it to.

    Obviously, it isn’t going to win any track events. Quite a few honda customers dont need razor sharp handling to warrant a RWD platform, especially at this price range.

    One must understand that these cars are done for the north american market where mid sized/big 2 door (non-highperformance) coupes are common (like the Camry coupe/Solara, Altima coupe) and sell fairly well.

    The butt actually looks good here, very in tune with the rest of the car. Love those rims too!

    so its american designed…no wonder the other Honda posted previously has a hint of American design.

    Butt look like Hyundai Coupe…especially that tail light shape

    You silly person. How can it “supposed to be a sedan” when it is cleary manufactured as a sports coupe aswell. Ít’s people like you that give idiots a bad name.
