For those lamenting the disappearance of V-6 engines from midsize sedans, the next-generation Accord will continue with both 4- and 6-cylinder engine options. It looks like the 4 will be paired with a CVT, and the 6 with a new 6-speed automatic transmission. Honda claims that the new V-6 model will beat the old V-6's 20/30 EPA mpg numbers.
For those interested in hybrids and plug-ins, the new Accord will apparently offer a plug-in hybrid variant, offering 10-15 miles of electric-only operation (and up to 62 mph). 120V provides a 4 hour re-charge while 240V lowers that time to 90 minutes.
And for everyone interested in driving dynamics, the good news is the new model will be smaller and lighter than the old model.
