We knew this generation was going to be more contemporary, thats a pretty aggressive C pillar. That trunk must going to be DEEEEEP to have descent cargo numbers.

Check against the present car.

Probably cargo space will remain the same, the pillar looks thicker but the trunk looks less long....

The steeply slanted C-pillar and short trunk was the first thing I notice about the car... It has the look of the 4-door coupe that a lot of (mainly upscale) automakers are going after these days... (CLS, A7, 6-series Grand Coupe, Passat CC). Not a bad thing in my opinion, the Accord needs a serious attitude adjustment in styling in response to really stiff competition. I think this is promising.
