Honda is a company that doesn’t like to follow the crowd. So, while it competes in most of the traditional sectors of the car market, in each case it does something a little bit different.

The Jazz, for example, might look like just another rival to Britain’s best-selling car, the Ford Fiesta, but it’s actually much more practical than its rivals, with a flexible boot and Tardis-like interior.

The bigger Civic is also a practical choice, but it’s mainly distinguished by having eye-catching, love-it-or-hate-it styling, despite competing in a sector of the market that’s usually more conservative than a blue rosette.

And while it may not seem so radical now, Honda’s large SUV, the CR-V, was one of the first to forego any pretence of being an off-roader and instead focus on on-road driving dynamics.

ACCORD

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.
