Canada: Honda Accord also gets a 'Special Edition' for 2011

It's official, Honda Canada is sending out the slightly revised 2011 Honda Accord with a "SE" edition, no word on what that SE will have, however in the US they have confirmed that it adds heated leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power lumbar on the driver’s seat, and SE (Special Edition) badging. It is available only with the 177-hp version of Honda’s 2.4-liter iVTEC four-cylinder engine, mated to either a five-speed manual or automatic.

From what I see this is how the 2011 Honda Accord Sedan lineup will look like;
-SE
-EX
-EX-L
-EX-L Navigation
-EX-V6
-EX-L-V6
-EX-L-V6 Navigation

Seeing as the SE is replacing the LX and is lower than the EX, I can't see leather as being the option, however I'd love to see heated cloth seats! Honda hasn't done that in the Accord since 2002!

2011 Honda Accord SE Sedan - Quick Spin

What Is It?
Car. If aliens landed tomorrow and asked for our finest example of mainstream transportation, you’d probably point them toward one of these babies. You might also tell them that the Accord has snatched Car and Driver’s 10Best trophy a whopping 24 times, although they might look at you funny (we publish no interstellar editions). The 2011 model year brings a mid-cycle refresh.

What’s New?
This SE model, for one thing. It’s the fifth and middle trim level for the Accord sedan, essentially an LX-P that adds heated leather seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, power lumbar on the driver’s seat, and SE (Special Edition) badging. It is available only with the 177-hp version of Honda’s 2.4-liter iVTEC four-cylinder engine, mated to either a five-speed manual or automatic, and will cost less than $24,000 when it goes on sale later this month. So this is clearly Honda’s Hyundai Sonata fighter, albeit with 21 fewer ponies.
