Moving inside, customers will find heated front seats with 10-way power adjustment on the driver’s side. The model also comes equipped with a 10.2-inch digital instrument cluster and a 7-inch infotainment system featuring Android Auto and Apple CarPlay compatibility. Other highlights include a power moonroof, a dual-zone automatic climate control system, an eight-speaker audio system, piano black trim, and metal mesh accents.
Power is provided by a turbocharged 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine that develops 192 hp (143 kW / 195 PS) and 192 lb-ft (260 Nm) of torque. It’s connected to a continuously variable transmission, which has “Step-Shift programming” that is designed to simulate gear changes.
Additional changes are limited, but all Accords now come equipped with rear air vents as well as a pair of USB-C ports for rear seat passengers. Hybrid trims gain heated front seats and a 15W wireless smartphone charger, while the range-topping Accord Touring Hybrid now comes standard with a heated steering wheel.
Hybrid variants have a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine and a two-motor hybrid system that gives the car a combined output of 204 hp (152 kW / 207 PS). Over 50% of customers opt for the powertrain and it’s no surprise as the hybrid returns up to 51 mpg city, 44 mpg highway, and 48 mpg combined.
Price increases vary by trim as the SE cost $650 more than the old EX, while the Sport gets a $760 price hike. The EX-L climbs $400, while the Sport-L jumps $500. Lastly, the Accord Touring climbs from $38,890 to $39,300 for a $410 increase.
