This is an official teaser image of the Honda Accord Tourer, which is due to go on sale in September.

Honda has chosen to use the estate car for the teaser image as its redesign is more substantial than the saloon's, which goes on sale in June.

Pictures of the car undergoing final testing have already revealed that its front end and overall design are very similar to the concept car's shown at last year's Frankfurt motor show.

Bigger, wider and featuring a curvy body, the new Accord loses the boxy-look synonymous with the current model.

The engine range is expected to remain unchanged, although all the units will be cleaner in order to stay ahead of European legislation.

This means 2.2- or 2.4-litre petrol units, as well as the 2.2-litre diesel, which will be available with either 155bhp or 180bhp.
