The current Accord is bigger than previous models and boasts better engine performance without any loss of fuel efficiency. It's available as a midsize coupe or sedan and in a variety of trim levels to suit almost any buyer's needs. Entry-level LX models have the basic necessities while top-line EX-L models feature items like leather upholstery, Bluetooth and an optional navigation system. All models come with a full array of safety equipment, including side curtain airbags and stability control.
As has been the case with past Accords, the newest model comes with either a four-cylinder or V6 engine. The base 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine makes 177 horsepower; an upgraded version of this engine available on the EX trim makes 190 hp. For more power, a 271-hp, 3.5-liter V6 is available. The four-cylinder engine has a five-speed manual transmission as standard and a five-speed automatic as optional. The V6 typically comes with a five-speed automatic, though V6-equipped coupes are available with a six-speed manual.
In reviews, we've found the latest Honda Accord continues to be a satisfying family sedan or midsize coupe, despite the fact that many rivals have caught up in recent years. The interior is very roomy and high in quality, though some might take issue with the car's multitude of buttons on the dash. Compared to some Accords of the past, the latest model is less sporty to drive, and it also has elevated road noise and mediocre brakes. Nonetheless, it still offers the usual Accord strengths of crashworthiness, reliability and comfort.
