That is an Acura TSX (think Euro-Accord). It got as high as 87mpg on a controlled test loop in England and has run as fast as 128mph. This car is NOT coming to the US, though a more mature version of the engine is likely in the US Accord at some point--but not in the new 2008.

This is Honda's first home-grown diesel and has technology found on no competing engine. With this waiting in the wings, it's easy to see why Honda cancelled the Accord hybrid.
