@@Masterguy635 I’ve now come to the conclusion that both probably sell so well so they’re holding off doing it knowing they have less to do to get people to buy it.
I’ve got it. 2.0 turbo with 10 speed automatic, no CVT. 2019 Touring with 11,000 moles on it.. So happy to find it… takes me 6 months to find. I will never buy the modern garbage 1.5 or hybrid.
it was a long-term plan, the new TLX or Acura legend will be based on the Accord and adopt that engine transmission combo. The TLX as we know it will be discontinued
I bought my 2018 Accord because it had a 250 hp turbo and a 10 speed gearbox. it has performed flawlessly. i get 34 mpg on cruisee at 75. It is quick and a blast to drive. I would not buythe Accord today as the hybrid engine and cvt take away the magic.
@@sBentonfamily To be honest the hybrid really isn't that bad. I am surprised by it still handles very well. I have both... The 2.0 is a god send, but the 11th gen feels VERY premium compared to the 10th gen. I wish they had the hybrid as AWD though,
Honda may benefit most adding some configuration options to the Accord vs. trying to make so many things standard on X trim. One this would save the consumer some money and it would allow the vehicle to be more of a fit for more buyers. For example: I don't want a moonroof : $900 price reduction I don't ever use heated seats, ventilated seats, and a heated steering wheel: $500 price reduction I don't need or want AWD: If this was an option on the Accord, it'd be around $1800. Since the Accord has most of its weigh on the driving wheels, this a great way to reduce the price and not the utility. Give me some options like the Bose sound system! Having to get this only by the Touring trim makes it a non-starter (if this is basically all you want from the Touring trim) Give me the HomeLink as an option from the factory. Why force the consumer to spend additional time and money at the dealer to get the accessory installed. Give me the option of Sirius/XM. This was removed entirely from e the Accord line up. Give me the USB A ports...now I have to get an adapter (extra time and money) Give me some optional colors across all trims ( I like the blue shown in this video, but it is restricted by trim). All the body's go through the same paint shop. This is easily done by Honda. Give me some interior trim options (especially something other than Somber Black). This interior is so neutral it is somewhat flavorless and monolithic black. How about a blue? How about a carmel? Some hue other than black and very, very light grey/tan? Again, don't restrict this (if ever offered) by only the top 1 or 2 trims. Now the consumer has some flexibility and some ability to personalize the vehicle. Win-win!
Love your reviews, the best on the web. I would like to make one recommendation. Please do interior sound levels at real driving speeds 75 to 85 mph. No one drives 55 anymore.
I'm glad this sport model has some silver on the alloy wheels, I loathe black wheels on cars. That $455 extra cost blue paint looks good but I would go with no extra charge silver
After looking at Hyundais one piece design for speedo + infotainment, these honda and toyota 2 piece and stick on type infotainment looks so awful. Maybe its first world problems, but i really feel like they should lift up their designs.
Accord sport sales are definitely gonna increase. Honda knew because Toyota already had these as equipped. These new Camrys are flying off the lot like hot cakes. I’ve seen more new Camrys than new accords. I wasn’t a fan of the look of the accord at first but it’s grown on me. It definitely doesn’t look as cool as it once did but it’s not bad looking. Air vents in the back seats are so important now n days because many people die from a lack of air. It’s shame that it’s still vehicles on sale today without rear air vents.
Yes!! Hyundai did the same. I asked the salesman did he know why they got taken off and he just laughed and said I wouldn’t need them. Obviously didn’t buy a Hyundai.
I love Honda’s including the styling on the current version of the Accord. What I don’t like are these small displacement turbocharged 4 cylinder engines with oil dilution problems and CVT transmissions. Let’s return to those naturally aspirated 2 liter engines that are practically indestructible and torque converter automatic transmissions.
I want the hybrid version EX with 17" wheels, no leather, no sunroof, and cheaper, but Honda doesn't think about me. Look at the Camry LE. Is it selling poorly?
I really like the Honda Accord Hybrid but some big minuses are that at that level and price, Honda doesn't give AWD, 360 degree camera which have become the industry standard at this point of time.
Did they change the seats i know I hate the ones on the 2023 model sport at least rented one before. Also is the suspension changed because I noticed it road little more rough
My 2019 Honda Accord 1.5 hit 70,000 mi not too long ago and then all of a sudden all the lights on the dash have been lit up being told all different types of stuff 🤦🏽♀️I don't know what to do not trying to pay the dealer thousands of dollars
All it needs is AWD. Surprised they didn’t bring the Asian style interior to the U.S. The Asian style interior has less buttons for the various controls and the knob you use has the clock in it.
I owned a lot of Hondas since 1991 and they were all great cars but the new Accord is ugly and uninspiring . I also question the reliability of the Honda line, lots of recalls and TSBs for issues which Hinda likes to extend warranty coverage on, My last Honda was a 2018 Civic EX which I turned in at lease end, it was subject to the oil dilution issue, The older Hondas were rock solid and good for 200K plus miles but new hybrid models have to prove they will last in the long run.
I like the color and the rims of the 2025 Honda accord but unfortunately that's about it. I own a 2014 Honda accord sedan LX automatic with 220,000 miles. No engine or transmission issues or any other issues had Car since day one. Did a complete brake job for the first time at 200,000 miles. All you got to do is manufacturers maintenance
Air ball...styling is boring and the older gen looked better...no touch to unlock on all 4 doors...Small gas tank of 14.8 gallons on the 1.5L and a even smaller gas tank of 12.81 gal on the more expensive models...1.5L is not the most reliable engine and wish it had the older 2.0 Turbo. According to Honda's website the Touring model does have a Heating Steering Wheel. The Touring model also has Acoustic Laminate Windshield and Acoustic Front Door Glass so it should be quieter, however on your dB chart the 2023 Accord Touring is loader at 62.4dB compared the 58.1dB for the Sport trim in this video. I am not sure how the Sport could be quieter than the Touring?
There’s no way I’m selling my 2017 EXL V6 and buying one of these. Honda screwed up by not offering a trim level with more performance like they had in their previous generations with the V6 and 2.0T. now your only engine options are a 1.5 turbo with 192HP and a 2.0 hybrid with 204HP, there’s definitely nothing exciting or exhilarating about those numbers. The only way I’d sell my V6 would be for a 2.0T. now your probably gonna have to buy an Acura to get anything with a decent level of performance.
How ridiculous for Honda not to give leather seats in gas version? Not even a leather wrapped steering wheel or gear knob! What were you thinking Honda?!!!
I have a 2024 EX- hybrid, and it sucks!! Crazy loud at highway speeds. Two re-calls already. It has a steering issue that Honda won't fix. All they say is everything is within spec. Chintzy knobs and buttons. The front passenger seat is like sitting a hole, it's way too low with no way to adjust it higher. It's supposed to get 44 mpg highway; the best I get is 38 mpg. Oh yeah the radio sounds bad especially the rear speakers.
When Honda stopped offering Sirius XM (not even as an option) they lost my business to Camry XLE. Don’t tell me about Apple Car Play or Android Auto. They only work where you have cell coverage, which excludes large swathes of the country.
I kind of like the Accord but no thanks because it looks so skinny and a slopping roof like a Camry looks fatter in the body and taller , Camry is my favorite one and I’d own the 2019 Se and didn’t go to a repair shop yet 😂
Compared to the new Sonata, new K5, and new Camry Hybrid…..the Accord is a joke. My first car was a 1987 Accord LX and was so fun to drive and own. Today’s Accord is behind the times and interior looks like a clone of the CR-V and Civic.
No projector led lights, no side turn signal led lights, no leather seats. Camry is faster and cheaper why a one should purchase this accord?unless you get 3k off msrp
I’ve recently got 2.0 Turbo 10 speed automatic touring. No CVT. This is rocket. No CVT. Traded in for my old 2017 accord with 225,000 miles on it. Can’t be happier. The modern Hondas are garbage unfortunately.
Crazy that they kept the design for the 2025. Thing looks dated already. Like something from the 80s. Taillights look bad also. I’d rather buy a new 2022 accord than this. :/
Honda quality and reliability has went to hell!! I was a loyal customer of 8 new cars and so glad I got rid of it!! Overpriced cars and suvs which are poorly manufactured and highly sold, not the Honda I use to remember
I genuinely hope people don’t buy this POS. Not what Honda wanted the accord to ever be. He’s rolling in his grave. The accord was always the yakuza car. It always had room and was fast. No reason the k series 7th gen is faster. That’s sickening truly. Not to mention the 7th gen manuals get 35-40 mpg based on your driving. That’s something, a now historic car too. Give us what the people actually want god damnit! We want a J series accord that’s manual but the body of the 10th gen! Like please! Why did they ever discontinue the j series accord. They struck gold and flushed the flakes down the toilet.
Not worth it, the exterior design is already showing its age, variety of engines is mediocre, and Honda didn’t even have the decency to make the infotainment screen look good, it just looks tacky for a car from 2025, better off saving money and buying a 2016 Kia Optima.

Yes you are lucky
Honda may benefit most adding some configuration options to the Accord vs. trying to make so many things standard on X trim. One this would save the consumer some money and it would allow the vehicle to be more of a fit for more buyers.
For example:
I don't want a moonroof : $900 price reduction
I don't ever use heated seats, ventilated seats, and a heated steering wheel: $500 price reduction
I don't need or want AWD: If this was an option on the Accord, it'd be around $1800. Since the Accord has most of its weigh on the driving wheels, this a great way to reduce the price and not the utility.
Give me some options like the Bose sound system! Having to get this only by the Touring trim makes it a non-starter (if this is basically all you want from the Touring trim)
Give me the HomeLink as an option from the factory. Why force the consumer to spend additional time and money at the dealer to get the accessory installed.
Give me the option of Sirius/XM. This was removed entirely from e the Accord line up.
Give me the USB A ports...now I have to get an adapter (extra time and money)
Give me some optional colors across all trims ( I like the blue shown in this video, but it is restricted by trim). All the body's go through the same paint shop. This is easily done by Honda.
Give me some interior trim options (especially something other than Somber Black). This interior is so neutral it is somewhat flavorless and monolithic black. How about a blue? How about a carmel? Some hue other than black and very, very light grey/tan? Again, don't restrict this (if ever offered) by only the top 1 or 2 trims.
Now the consumer has some flexibility and some ability to personalize the vehicle. Win-win!
The Honda Accord is a solid choice! It's known for its reliability, great fuel efficiency, and comfortable ride.
Love your reviews, the best on the web. I would like to make one recommendation. Please do interior sound levels at real driving speeds 75 to 85 mph. No one drives 55 anymore.
Ditto!
Thanks! We're looking at it as more of an average speed an owner drives
I just love your videos. Keep it up guys
Thanks so much!
Car is dynamite. The inside is so comfortable and ride is amazing. I purchased the silver with black trim and rims. It’s sharp.
Nice view and I will take this over the Camry.

In my opinion Honda should have made the accord hybrid exclusive
Because in my opinion the 1.5t is not that great of a powertrain because it’s more unrefined and doesn’t get that great mileage compared to the hybrid
I do not agree . By making all the accord hybrid good for the environment and less price wise.
Does any body care about the horsepower we lost??? Liberal car enthusiasts kill everything I swear....Liberals took away the v6 279hp

It’s stupid how they took the fog lights off and all the older models since 2016-2022 have it
Yes!! Hyundai did the same. I asked the salesman did he know why they got taken off and he just laughed and said I wouldn’t need them.

The paddle shifters aren't for changing gears. They are for regin braking.
2025 honda legend
I liked the 2023 edition much better it looked a lot better than the 25 and they got rid of the 2.0 turbo
they look exactly the same
All it needs is AWD. Surprised they didn’t bring the Asian style interior to the U.S. The Asian style interior has less buttons for the various controls and the knob you use has the clock in it.
The new trims should’ve been 2.0T Sport and 2.0T Elite.
Are the seats very comfortable?
We didn't have any problem with them. These clothes ones seemed a little softer than our Camry's leather ones.

No XM radio .. its wild
Does the 2.9 come standard?
Not sure
the front looks cool but the back is awkward …..
2:18 tail lights standard on accords? bout time, they're optional on the competition
The Accord Sport Touring DOES have a heated steering wheel.
Still no optional four wheel drive makes the Accord a reasonable practical sell in a thriving SUV market🤷🏼
The last best accord was the 9th gen…
"247 torque is a lot for this segment" me with a 2019 2.0l with 273 torque 😂 they went backwards from gen 10 to 11. Real sad to see
Until the 2.0 comes back out
I'm not interested

The Touring is an unofficial score measured in California. We have not tested a Touring on our home roads.
Please 25 4 runner review....when....
It's looking like early next year is when they'll become available for us to review
they lost a lot of accord and car fans when they took out the 2.0 turbo engine drive train 10 speed auto.

If only they offer that color on the touring trim. Top trim colors are bland compared to Toyota
Small sunroof, no XM option, terrible driver assist still no 360 camera.
Give us a panoramic moonroof Honda 😂
Once upon a time accord got elegant and classic design, now the exterior is simply shitty. Cheap designer == Cheap look.
Can’t believe they got rid of dual climate control as standard, it’s been standard since 2013🤦🏽♂️
Still no heated wheel available, come on
It's now included on the Touring trim here in the U.S! We apologize for the error.
Giant long sedan, bought mostly by older people, no 360 camera. Absolutely bizarre choice.
Nope - old people and soccer moms buy SUVs.
Sedans are great
take out the turbos and bring back the 2.4-2.5l engine and i'd get one
The exterior styling is so boring.
Boring isn’t the right word. The car is 35k. This inside is amazing and if you get the right color it’s classy
Why do they not put in a sexy gear shift. What is with that rubber bag 80s thing going on.
NO FOG LIGHTS AND NO SPARE TIRE??? WTF?? MIGHT BE A DEAL BREAKER.🎉
35k+ for a accord is crazy
How ridiculous for Honda not to give leather seats in gas version? Not even a leather wrapped steering wheel or gear knob! What were you thinking Honda?!!!

New to this generation I should have said
Ummm Honda yall need panoramic roofs
