American Honda released the first images of its 2005 Accord V6 Hybrid, a gas-electric hybrid version of Honda's best-selling car, scheduled to go on-sale at Honda dealerships nationwide later this year.

"The Accord hybrid delivers both increased performance and higher fuel economy. It takes hybrid technology into all new territory."
