Default The Accord we should've gotten.

I know it's not a hybrid, but I bet the IMA system would work just fine with the diesel four-banger.

Oh well.

It's not something I'd buy, but I'm intrigued by the diesel engine being offered...

Station wagon Accord?

People will have flashbacks to older accord models, not a good selling point

Hey, some of us really miss the hatchback hondas. It's about time they start talking about diesels for small cars again... as long as they don't take it as an opportunity for a power boost without FE gain.

Bloated? I doubt it as the Euro Accord is based on the Acura TSX, which is quite a bit smaller than the US market Accord.

That bloated wagon is smaller than our Accord and gets twive the mileage, I'm sure. The reason we can have our wagons is because American like CRVs and Pilots.
