If the number of models on the market is any indication, mid-size coupes from regular, non-luxury brands are a dying breed. The snout is now low and rounded, with a higher beltline, and a long, continuous roof arc flowing down to an organic, crease-less back end that has the angled-inward taillights that are so common on luxury designs.

But there are some practical advantages to the new shape. Aerodynamics are further improved with the new body style which usually means a reduction in wind noise , and also the new roofline allows increased rear headroom. Inside, the changes are the most dramatic. This new interior is swoopy and heavily Euro-influenced, with a combination of dials and organically shaped buttons. Honda opted to consolidate the controls and displays for climate-control and audio functions together in the center area.

The display portion of it works well, with a single, neat, high-contrast display screen high in the middle of the dash that tells you everything in one glance. The controls, however, are another matter. In our test car, an EX equipped with the standard dual-zone climate control, the three large dials very close in vicinity proved confusing at first. The middle dial is for sound-system volume, while the left and right dials are for the corresponding zones of the climate control.

After a week we were still getting them confused with a quick reach downward in traffic. The complete redesign of the dash and consolidation of some of the controls allows the space for a huge storage bin below the climate-control and audio controls. The bin can hold up to twelve CD cases, or a small purse, and it has a shiny latch-down cover for privacy. Quite simply, there are a lot of places to put things, and these are all practical, usable spaces.

The cup holders are in the center console, and they can hold a large drink securely while the armrest is down.

Plus the doors will hold a bottle, and there are plenty of other smaller spaces for toll change, PDAs, phones, and other ephemera.

Hands down, Honda trumps the German brands and at least rivals the American brands here with plenty of cubbyholes, pockets, and indentations to stow things. The seats are touted as larger than the last-generation Accord. Also of note, the downwardly curving roofline makes entry and exit difficult, and while the driver-side seat returns back to the position it was in, the passenger-side seat does not. Most of the switchgear stays in its familiar Honda locations, but steering-wheel controls have been improved and are directly on the wheel spokes rather than in a separate control pod.

The main gauge cluster is now backlit with LEDs, so when the ignition is turned off the area goes completely dark. Breathing improvements have been made on both the intake and exhaust sides, a new knock-sensor system enables the compressions ration to be raised to The tune-up interval is now , miles.

A five-speed automatic transmission was also new for It boasts improved performance and fuel economy figures, an updated Grade Logic algorithm to hold lower gears on grades, and improved shift quality due to integration with the electronic throttle and a new transmission fluid temperature sensor. The new electronic throttle feels nice and more linear than the jumpy-off-the-line linkage of past V-6 Accords. The five-speed automatic finds the right gear with ease, with snappy yet smooth shifts and no driveline jerks.
