The wraps have come off the 2015 Honda Legend just a
couple of months before its official debut in Japan. This is the fifth generation flagship Honda sedan, some 10 years after the outgoing fourth-gen model was introduced.
Honda needs a new model to spice up its range, but
unfortunately, this isn’t really a new model. You see, it’s based on the Acura RLX in America, which has been on sale since 2013. Even still, the Legend does get some advanced new tech.
For the Legend, Honda has provided the ‘Sport Hybrid Super
Handling All-Wheel Drive’ (SH- AWD) system comprising of a
3.5-liter naturally aspirated V6 paired to an electric motor
assist. Overall output is rated at a very impressive 281kW and
510Nm, while the average fuel consumption is rated at
5.9L/100km.
The energetic setup is connected to a seven- speed dual-clutch auto transmission. No performance figures have been mentioned at this stage but considering the front-wheel drive.
Accord V6L manages 0-100km/h in 6.5 seconds, it would be
safe to assume a sub 6.0- second time for the Legend.
Aside from the clever power train, the new Legend showcases an industry-first pedestrian collision prevention system which uses automated steering to help avoid collisions with pedestrians. It also gets emergency steering, blind-spot monitoring, a system called false-start prevention, and road sign recognition.

very nice ride

Shes a beauty, would choose dos ova an accord ooo

Prestigious. After leaving out the car for more than a decade they decide to restructure it. Nice work honda

If finally it gets to Naija, I may abandon Accord and go for it. Another good product from Honda.

It's a rebadged Acura RLX.

Dear Honda, why no V8 AWD sedan?

I can't take you serious till you produce a V8 AWD or RWD sedan.

Even Toyota (Lexus) have capable V8 sedans.

Lol. There are reports of V8 sedans coming in 2015.
Keep your fingers crossed.
