First generation Honda Accord CVCC was introduced in 1976, and remained in production for 5 years. It was a 3-door hatchback, compact class car. It has 1,6 L inline four cylinders engine, producing 68 horsepower and having great fuel economy characteristics. The original fuel economy was 46 mpg highway, but with a Weber carburetor kit, it could go as high as 80 mpg with 80 horsepower. Wheelbase was 93.7 inches, and the overall lenght - 411 cm (162 inches). It was smaller than today's Honda Civic 5D hatchback (which is 424 cm long) and of course than Civic 4D sedan, which almost half meter longer. That's why it cost only 4000$ :)
