“The Honda Accord comes in sedan and coupe versions. Either way, the Accord is big on efficiency, be it getting the most power and range from a gallon of gas with the least emissions, making the largest interior available given the exterior space it takes up, or providing the smoothest, quietest ride possible with the lightest weight. Whether moving four people comfortably or enjoying the long way home, the Accord is up to the task.
The Accord was completely redesigned for 2008, when it grew in exterior dimensions and interior roominess, safety, and value. The two model years since have brought little change.
For 2010, all Accord models with leather interiors come with a Bluetooth hands-free phone link… and climate controls on all models have new colors and graphics for easier identification.”
“The Accord is available with a choice of four-cylinder and V6 engines, manual or automatic transmission, and essentially four trim levels.
Accord LX sedans are equipped with a 177-horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The LX Sedan ($21,055) comes standard with cloth upholstery, air conditioning, power mirrors and door locks, power windows, variable intermittent wipers, tilt-and-telescoping steering column and illuminated wheel-mounted controls, folding rear seats, and an MP3/WMA/auxiliary-input 160-watt sound system. Wheels are 16-inch steel with P215/60HR16 tires.
Safety equipment is standard, with six airbags, including two-stage front airbags, dual-chamber front side airbags, side curtain airbags; active front head restraints, electronic stability control, antilock brakes with electronic brake distribution and brake assist, and tire pressure monitors.”
“The Honda Accord features contemporary yet conservative design highlighted by a strong character line that slopes down and forward…Last redesigned for 2008, the current Accord features narrow windshield pillars and a low cowl for good forward visibility, Honda hallmarks. The rear door pillars share the kink popularized decades ago by BMW and becoming ever more frequent…
The current Accord sedan is larger than any before, and although it competes in the mid-size market segment it is by EPA interpretation a large car. It is about five inches longer than primary competitor Camry, and more than three inches longer that the Nissan Altima and Maxima.”
“Honda owners will feel right at home in the Accord, one reason repeat buyers account for a good chunk of sales. It is light and airy, spacious, with thoughtful layout and plenty of elbow room. Everything you touch feels right for the price, everything you need seems to be here, and everyone on board should be comfortable.
Accord LX models provide pleasing design and materials and a variety of storage areas for modern conveniences and old-fashioned vices.”
“The Honda Accord is an easy drive with good manners regardless of model, engine or transmission. It comes across as firmer than most Camry models but smoother and softer than the Altima.
The softest-riding model is the Accord LX by virtue of 16-inch tires with a larger sidewall, and the mildest suspension calibration. It's also the lightest and best balanced model. Not as mellow as the Camry but gentler than much of the competition, the Accord LX handles bad roads with aplomb and basically goes where it's pointed…The Accord LX stays relatively flat in the corners, doesn't nosedive under braking, and makes stable transitions working down a winding road or through city clutter. Steering is light, direct, and makes quick work of a U-turn.”
“The Honda Accord is easy to operate, well-engineered and well-mannered. It's a great midsize sedan and it's also available as a stylish, trouble-free coupe.”

honda partsIn the years that would follow, Honda would adapt this same principle that would prove effective for its expansion programs as well as for its Honda cars and Honda parts campaigns. Because more than the market demands, what Honda answered with its production of motorcycles of a long line of products that now include trucks, scooters, along with jet engines in conjunction with its role in jet production, were specific consumer needs. After the first few post-war years, when everyone feared that the best minds and the best people in the world were dead, companies like Honda, among some others, strove to prove the world wrong. When the 50's ushered in a new era, it found Japan trying to pick itself up again. Granted, it was a little wobbly on its pins but the economic scope was definitely looking up and businesses like Honda were not one to give up. In 1947, Honda A-Type was produced, and a year later, the company was officially established. Honda Motor Limited Company was back on its feet.
