Mugen Accord 24sc Concept

One thing that the European and Japanese Honda line-up have in common is its Accord, they both use the sleeker, sportier and more compact version of the Accord as opposed to the large and more luxurious-looking Accord that we get, which is called the Honda Inspire in Japan. While Europe makes do with a new Type S oil burning Accord (the Type R could come back with this new generation), Japanese tuner Mugen takes the JDM Honda Accord, slaps on a bodykit and a Type-R-esque rear wing and finally supercharges the 2.4 liter DOHC engine. No power figures of the Honda Accord Mugen 24sc Concept have been released but I’d say something around the 300 horsepower range can be expected. Look after the jump for more shots of the supercharged Accord.

    Holy cow. It looks like a fighter jet.

    But the bumpers are a lil’ overdone.

    Overall. Fierce looks :)

    A smaller and not-so-curvy rear wing would look better for this Accord. No wing probably make it more executive-liked.

    Supercharged 2.4 engine, that’s pretty much of horsepower to drag this car to end of the corner. The rest counts on its weight and handling.

    Where’s Camry ehh?

    Look at the wheel arch! Fab, fab, fab… but if it’s going to be est RM250k, most will choose more premium brands like 3-series or Lexus IS.

    Guess this is the same supercharger that we have seen in the Civic Dominator concept.

    At first it was Fit Dynamite, then Civic Dominator then this Accord 24sc. It is possible to reach 300HP, as the Dynamite which equipped a 2.0 K20A can reach 300HP, this 2.4 engine would probably exceed that.

    Not a power hungry driver though but really amazed by how do they squeeze additional 150ps from a 2000cc that has only 155ps.

    Design wise, I think the front looks alright. But the the rear…it looks like it is dragging its butt on the floor. Too ‘labuh’ for my eyes. Accord Type-R usually are more subtle in their design approach without losing that menace look. This is just too bold.

    B33MER, if put LSD then, everytime want to U-turn, has to use the E-brake la. Hehehe….
