Overview & Reviews

Few vehicles from overseas manufacturers have garnered as much respect in North America as the Honda Accord. It hasn't achieved this status by being glamorous, sexy or thrilling. Instead, Honda just seems to have its finger on the pulse of what Americans value most. Take an Accord for a spin and you'll find it to be comfortable, roomy, intelligently engineered and easy to drive. It's also backed by strong resale value and a solid reputation for reliability.

You'll find that certain competing sedans and coupes are quicker, more prestigious or simply less expensive than the Accord. What's special about the Honda Accord, though, is its completeness. It scores well across a broader range of categories than practically any family-friendly sedan or coupe on the market. When examined from this holistic standpoint, it's easy to see why the Accord has become an automotive icon and remains one of our editors' top recommendations.

  accord coupe - 2000 Honda Accord
  By pmsturgill - October 19 - 10:00 am

  where do i begin, this is the best car i have ever owned, the only thing i can complain about is the tail end looks strange without a spoiler and the 4cyl wheels are some of the ugliest wheels i have ever seen. the car drives amazing hugs the turns, i like the hydraulic clutch but could stand a performance upgrade. this thing is pretty zippy and good speed for a 4cyl. all i have done is put a cold air intake on it (it was free) and general maintnence recommended car.

  Best Mid-size ever built by Honda - 2009 Honda Accord
  By HondaMania - October 17 - 1:36 pm

  Ive shopped everywhere for a affordable yet sporty midsized. Ive looked at Camry, Maxima, and Mazda. The best was Honda Accord. Its got luxury, power, attractiveness, and even comfort. The V6 EX L is not cheap. I ended up paying over $31,000 after taxes and fees but its been well worth it. Acceleration is more than enough for my wife and me, interior room is very spacious, and I feel like Im in a true luxury vehicle. Sometimes I forget that its a Honda. Yes, its that good.

  2010 - 2010 Honda Accord
  By atq - October 16 - 3:30 pm

  I have had 2006 and 2008 and this is my third car I am leasing. 2010 has somewhat improved in terms of suspension and better road noise. Long drive trips are comfortable in terms of seating, and tiredness. Avoided leather seats as some others have been complaining of backaches.

  Impressed - 2008 Honda Accord
  By Bug4 - October 15 - 9:03 pm

  Picked up my silver EX-L with black leather and a spoiler last weekend. I love it! Im a fan of the exterior styling, but what most impresses me is the interior and the way the car drives. The interiors design, looks and quality have grown on me since I first drove the car. The automatic transmission is smooth and very predictable. I hate auto trannys, but think Im going to be able to live with this one. I love the responsiveness of the throttle. The cars handling is very competent and even a little sporty when you push it. After looking at almost every car on the market under $35k, I think this is the best bang for the buck - certainly not perfect-but a very nice car for the money!

  Found The Best Kahhh!!!! - 2005 Honda Accord
  By duval - October 15 - 7:06 pm

  Wohhhh WEhhh, found the best kah!!! I used to have a honda civic and a honda integra overseas. I love them both but I think I need a bigger kahh this time. Everytime i drive the car is like a feeling of satisfaction and peace of mind... everybody, you know what i mean, dont get me wrong, domestic cars are good but nahh, there just too many of them in the side of the freeway that needs towing......love everything about this car, inside has got a lot of leg space, outside is conservatively MACHO...and the best is that everybody looks at me ,opps sorry!!! at my car at the stop light.

  Great style, economy, and technology - 2018 Honda Accord
  By Bob - October 15 - 3:55 pm

  So far I really love this car. Access to the USB port for Android Auto could be a little better. The gear shift blocks it somewhat. Also my Samsung Note 4 barely fits in the cubby hole where the USB port is located. Back seat room is superior. The ride is very nice overall. So far I would highly recommend buying this 2018 Accord.

  Good car for that year - 1997 Honda Accord
  By sbvmax - October 15 - 2:00 am

  Overall the car is good for what it is designed for. A cheaply priced car with good gas mileage. Wish I would have bought the V6 model, but thought they didnt come out until 98. A couple of weeks ago just turned over 50k and had 4 recals taken care of free of charge.

  Near top end Honda competes with higher end cars - 2017 Honda Accord
  By Bart Charlow - October 13 - 5:17 am

  We compared to the Acura models and found the near top end Honda to be a much better car and deal (surprised!) While the car is brand new, given past experience with half a dozen Hondas, I expect reliability and repair needs to be excellent. Honda servicing is quite good and an Accord is much less expensive to maintain than a Lexus or Acura. This car drives very well. Much better seating and entry/exit height than previous models. Very good visibility (better than the Acura) and better ride than previous models. Its still an Accord, so it isnt really cushy, but its tighter to handle more like a sporty car without the drawbacks of a sports car. Exterior has too much chrome for my taste, but overall looks good. Interior is well done. Controls a bit daunting at first, but well laid out. We did NOT get the navigation, as it is unnecessary with GPS on phone, but we did pony up extra for the parking lidar and it seems worth it. The automatic right turn camera is a really great feature, but cannot fathom why they didnt do it for left turns as well. Rear camera works well. Overall a very nice car with a nice ride and look. I do wish Honda gave more color choices, though.

  Honda lover - 2017 Honda Accord
  By Mike Morgan - October 12 - 8:17 pm

  Just purchased a 2017 Accord Touring. What a fantastic car. This is my 5th Accord and the best ever. My first with a V-6. I must say that the Honda V-6 is one of the best that I have ever driven. Quiet, great performance and I averaged over 25mpg combined in my first 2 tanks. The interior is high quality, the ride is smooth and quiet with a lot of room in the rear seat. I would highly recommend an Accord with the V-6--its a great ride.

  car built beatifully and safely - 2003 Honda Accord
  By lecia - October 12 - 2:00 am

  I fell in love with the Accord Coupe 2003 model when I first saw it. Little did I know that its smart design both inside and out would save my life today. Today, while on my way to work on I-95, traffic came to a stop. And as I completely stopped, a car flew into my back at 65 mph. I walked out of the car with a small scratch on my nose. Paramedics couldnt believe that I had no major injuries. Basically the car absorbed most of the impact, but the interior frame stood strong. The car is a total loss, but Im shopping for the same exact car. Accord coupe. . . smart and beautiful!!
