- Опубликовано: 13 сен 2024
- The 2019 Honda Accord continues what was started last year with the all new redesign of this sedan class leader. Everything was updated from under the hood with it's turbocharged engine, to an all new exterior and interior. Find out if Honda made the right changes to the 2019 Accord and is it a better choice than the Toyota Camry.
Thanks for reviewing this entry level.
Many reviewers go to the max out models which the common buyer doesn’t buy.
I wholeheartedly agree.
Yea that’s so annoying
Truth
This dude is the best car reviewer ever. Everyone else I’ve seen have been kinda awkward. Lol
his review of the 2020 accord low key made me buy it 💀 this guys reviews cheer me up so much
yup
Yeah, he's good. Another good one is the guy who does Redline Reviews.
@@jd.3256 no that Asian guy is gay.
Love the full details. I really don't mind the longer videos and descriptions since it really covers everything about the car. Best car videos that I've see so far. Good idea to start with entry levels. Great work!
Thanks Carlo! I really appreciate it!

Lmaooooo
Accord means Power! FYI
😂😂😂😂👏🏼
U r funny man
Because of of your review on to of others I bought this car and I’m loving it! I looked at the camera and Nissan Altima... the accord was so much nicer in my opinion. Great review! Thanks!
Thanks for saying that! I really appreciate your taking the time to watch! Congrats on yoru new accord!
How has it been? What about the mpg?
4:50 I wanted the 17in wheels for the reasons you say , more rubber comfort ride and less expensive to replace . a main reason why I chose the LX . the best mpg/hp combo in the trims (sport and 2.0 have lower mpg and bigger wheels . hybrid has less hp from engine and when battery decays less power and hp plus have to replace battery pack). I've cut my gas expense by 40% with the LX and got a better ride .
I have a 15 Accord with a CVT with 215k miles. No issues with my transmission. I drive 5k miles+ a month. This car had been flawless. I traded in for another Accord with a 1.5 engine. I have been driving Honda for about 15 years now and have put nearly 1 million miles on all my Honda's. 1 of those a Acura TL (Accord with a body kit)
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Is it original transmission fluid or u change it
Had a used 2018 accord LX for 2 months before I was in a car accident because someone coming the opposite way made a left in front of me & we slammed into each other when I was going like 60. I don’t remember if my car sensed it or not because it came out of nowhere hitting my front right side corner before I was also pushed into a wall on a bridge. Car was totaled & looked pretty bad, but I was okay & everyone was shocked. 2 weeks later I bought a brand new one because I loved the car so much. Thank God I’m okay & I had gap on my last accord to close the loan.
Thanks for you input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
I’m glad you’re okay
Really glad you're ok, and everything worked out for you. God bless 🙏
Glad you came out ok 💖
Glad you came out in one piece! God bless you

@@RaitisRides u survived the thanos snap...only to review this accord 👍
Finally someone reviewing base models stuff that most people will buy
Thank you for saying that and for watching!
Yeah I bought the lx for 21,000 I wanted the sport but it was 25,000. 3000 may not seem like a lot but the faster I pay it off and less loan the better lol the lx is plenty enough for anyone
@@luigyvidoes I appreciate you sharing that input!
Four years ago today! This still my first car.
havent had a car in 2yrs saved up to buy this one and wow he aint playing you dont hear nothing when driving its really smooth on the wheel i love it i love my new car
Darn man... I always thought I was older than you. Whatever you are doing, don’t stop. Thought you were in your mid 30’s tops. ‘78 here
Thank you sir for that! In a way I think it helps because of all the experiences that I have had along the way! We are close in age! We get better like a fine wine! :-)
Honda Accord.....the greatest car ever made...best price to performance...best resale value...best reliability....!
I appreciate you sharing your input and perspective! Thank you so much for watching!
I love my 18 lx I'm Impressed with the mpg rn I'm averaging 40.1mpg one time I hit 44mpg with a 526 mile range on premium! Excellent video!
Thanks for sharing your ownership input!
Doest it takes premium or regular gas ?
@@n1n0z24 the dealer say to use premium but it can take regular dealers say it's better for the turbo and over all quality run
12:57 you can keep the Tachometer "ring" even if you scroll thru the menu by going to your settings and turn it on. I don't know why they would have it off as a factory setting. Hope that helps any of you Accord owners
That is really great of you to share that info!
I’m glad you mentioned the wheels ! I wanted the sport wheels but you made solid points on the 17 inch !thank you !
I really appreciate you taking the time to say that!
Same. Thought I wanted the sport wheels until I looked but tire prices and those alone are over 2x the price
Thumbs up to your camera person. Great angles and transitions.
Thank you so much for taking the time to say that!
Good review. I love that you reviewed a base model and not a top end all options touring that most reviewers look at that most of the buyers can't afford. I'd probably go EX trim but this does have a lot of nice features. Am I the only one who thinks this looks like an early 80's Cadillac Seville from the side though?
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on this one! I appreciate you watching!
Test drove the Accord a few months back. Really good car. Drove smooth and was very comfortable.
I totally agree with you! I really want to get my hands on a 2.0L Sport!
The SPORT punches above its weight class.
Which model?
@@Emale2000 great question.
Emale2000 I believe it was the sport. I went for the Touring but they said it was not available in manual. I was told the one I drove was the highest trim that manual was available in.
Nice review. I had a 2000 Accord I purchased new with the 2.0 V Tech 150 hp engine.
I kept it for 6 years before getting the bug for the new Hemi Charger R/T. The Accord was the most trouble free car I’ve ever owned. 👍👍
Thank you for sharing that input from your experience! Big difference to the Charger!
Raiti's Rides Yeah, traded it after 10 years for a Cadillac ATS 4 Performance. It’s quicker than the Charger and is AWD.😱
L S holy hell I love the Cadillac it’s bad ass took it on a 3hr drive good choice 👍🏾
Mentioning the potholes it made me appreciate the wheels on the base model I’ll be getting
I get better reviews from you than people that work at dealers. Lol
Great review
Thanks Ricardo for saying that! I really appreciate that!
love my 2019 Accord LX 1.5T 192hp 30/38mpg 17in Champagne Frost . I wanted a car with a small powerful motor and high mpg at a good price , but I also got comfort style and space . roomy front seats, back seats and trunk plus great stereo , safety and tech . powerful drive , great handling ( I own a Saab 9-5 , 91 MR2 , 96 Previa , Lexus ES300 , Rav4 , and have owned other cars for comparison ) the Accord is just a great car .
the air vents are under the front seats on the floor. take a look . my CVT is great in fact I want it for all my next cars (already have a manual 5sp MR2).
Literally just got this as my first car 💯 I’m happy with it
Excellent detailed review on the Honda Accord LX, this is very rare. Thanks Man ! The car looks great !
That is really wonderful of you to say! Thank you so much for watching!
Never seen a review so good and so detailed. Great job
if Honda can guarantee long-term reliability of the drive-train (CVT paired to 1.5T engine), then this could compel some Camry shoppers to switch.. But If I must have a 2019 Honda Accord it has to be the 2.0L T with 10 speed Auto and all the options that go with it. Great review.
Thanks for the compliment! Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
@@RaitisRides you're welcome
Toyota people I think stick to Toyotas even with all the awards of this car. Not bagging on Toyotas at all, but I know people that won’t drive anything else even when this car seems to be better in every way.
It’s really not bad looking I mean the sport and touring look pretty good in a darker color lol in my opinion. The Camry and Accord are both solid. I like your channel dude.....that shopping plaza looks depressing tho.
I can't wait to get my hands on a Sport 2.0L 6 speed! I really appreciate the compliment! It's crazy how all of the stores there were gone. It was a nice quiet location to film. Thanks for your support!
Top of the line review like always, Raiti could make a death announcement seem exciting👍 I've seen both side by side and the Camry just looks too weird with all the cuts and slashes on the front end, the Accord just looks more high end outside and inside.
Thank you Edgar for your awesome support! I have never received a compliment like that before! lol
I love my honda accord 2019 LX...
Do you know any way we can get CarPlay into our lx’s?
FormulaShooter Same I really hate it doesn’t have carplay
@@irunfreightllc fr. only thing i wish i had on mine. did you figure anything out? i want it to be oem
@@dylanroselle6130 I use a tablet for infotainment. Look up Headunit reloaded app. Solves the issue
Great car, love my LX. Perfect? No, but it has a lot of features for a base model.
No glove box light. 😳
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
We test drove an Accord LX, a non-turbo Mazda 6, and a Camry SE. We ended up liking the 2019 Camry SE the most. We plan to keep the car for a long time, at least 10 years. I would consider an Accord if I was leasing. I'm still not trusting of CVT or turbo.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Sick of the CVT bashing. It is the smoothest driving experience available from an ICE car. And it the most efficient transmission. People, if you want shifts, grow a pair and get the manual.
Thanks for taking the time to share your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
I have the 6 speed 2.0T sport in San Marino red and I gotta tell you Raiti it is more than great for the money. Plethora of stock options including Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, backup camera that beeps for moving vehicles, full power driver seat, leather and cloth seats, sun/moonroof, rear passenger air vents behind the front center console, fog lights, dual exhaust, black chrome front grille, trunk lip spoiler, 19" wheels, plenty of cargo and passenger space. Only thing missing are minor things like side mirror signal lights, no door panel lights, no glovebox light, no navigation... all things I could do without in order to own a 6 speed sport trim with that 2.0 turbocharged i-vetc engine. I will say the 19"wheels do create a bit of road noise and the sound system needs an upgrade, but the handling, the power and torque, the comfort is grade-A for a 32k price tag. Not to mention the Hondata tunes available and aftermarket parts to make it a type r killer, I mean can't get any better. With this car I can be a tamed 4 dr sedan family man or I can be a track day lunatic in this thing. Thank you for reviewing this car, I really wish they would make a 3.0T or a type r version in the future but we'll cross that bridge when we get there and I'll trade the crap out of this thing for any of those options. I can't say it enough, love your videos, love your passion for cars, keep it up Raiti.
I totally agree with you! That is a great setup!
Honda, Toyota and other autos maker out there are experiment CVT transmission. My old honda with 350K miles still run smooth without any transmission and engine problems.
Thank you for sharing that amazing story about your experience!
Honda has been using the CVT for years as far back as the 90s
There was a time when the automatic transmission was experimental too. Gotta start somewhere. But the CVT has been around for ages. It's quickly gaining traction as the preferred transmission of choice. Manual transmission is gone from the Accord and step transmissions are falling out of favor with many automakers. Hold on to your "old Honda" since you hate the CVT.
Only issue I think in long terms are the turbos which causes too much heat that will cause the engine to mess up
That is an excellent point!
Henry Navarrete that’s why I ended up with a Camry
Just not sure if that 1.5 turbo can go 200k plus miles
I bought the first 2018 Accord 2.0 Touring off the lot last year. Unfortunately I get hit pretty hard and my car was written off. I was able to walk out with bumps and bruises. Air bags saved my bacon. I can attest to it being safe in accidents. I liked it a lot. I have the option of looking around and I have, but iI will be going back to the Accord. It had everything I needed and more. I owned a Acura TL before this and loved that car. I test drove both and realized I liked the Accord better. I like the 9th Gen as well, but the shape and design of the new one works for me.
Thank you for sharing that crazy experience that you had! I am so glad that things worked out well for you and that you are okay. What are you in now?
@@RaitisRides Nothing yet. Just happened less than two weeks ago. Will probably get the 2019 version. I get that new car smell again!
@@rulinghabs I am glad you are looking on the bright side of things!
Had to leave the remains of Toys R Us in the background for an extra kick, too funny Joe
There was this end of the world feel going on there!
Raiti I love your review! The Accord for me brings back memories and I love them. I drove a 94 Accord DX in high school. It was about 15 years old and I loved it. I’m 6’ tall as well and the 94 had plenty of headroom. I’m currently working on saving for a new car and wanna know how the headroom is for you? One more question, Do you think they’ll do a different taillight design soon?
The Accord is clearly more of a driver's car than the Camry. Better handling and performance. I have an 18 EX Accord that I bought a year and now has 15k miles. No mechanical problems whatsoever!!! The fuel economy is superb. I know that people have mixed feelings about the styling. I actually like the radical design. Overall, the engineers at Honda did a great job on the new design!! There's a reason why the Accord has been named as one of best sedans for over 30 years! Toyota can't say that! Toyota had their issues year with a recall due to the accelerator sticking which caused fatal accidents!! The oil dilution only occurs in very cold climates and has been an issue in the CRV. If you step up to the 2.0 platform on the Accord you really have a true sports sedan!! Kudos to Honda!!
You have some really great input Ken! Thanks for sharing!
The LX does not have lane watch or blind spot monitoring?
I know I'm coming late, but nice review. After checking out the Honda Insight, I noticed that the Accord LX is priced similarly. I find it interesting how they're so similar in price yet so radically different in every other way.
Love the infotainment screen, at least it doesn't look like the iPad glued to the dash like the Mercedes C series.
That is a very good point!
I appreciate your video. I really want this new accord but the Mazda 3 sedan has also caught my eye. This video helped proved that this is the best car for me’ Mazda’s back seats look SO tight!!
I was surprised to see an absence of a rear center armrest. Joe decided not to zonk it. Nice review! Thanks!
Thanks Josh for sharing your input on the rear armrest. I concur with your zonk! Thanks for watching!
I have 2018 Honda Accord sport and I love it so much 😍 but I kinda like the 2019 Lx interior
Thanks for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
They have the same interior dummy
@@donkey3187sport and above has the 8 inch touchscreen but other than that it’s the same. i personally like the wheels of the lx better but it sucks not having carplay
Both Honda Accord and Toyota Camry are better buys over the European junk cars.
And you prolly think dodge and Chevrolet are the best 🤦🏾♂️
@@perkhere2252 And, you 'trolly' think that i am an illiterate Murican :) ... Try again. I am a literate European, LOL!
I just bought a gray EX yesterday. It came with extra upgrades(bought demo car). I love it so far.
Did he just review the Accord in the parking lot of a Toys R us? 😂😂
Dwayne it had to be quiet! They aren’t busy! 😂
Countless plazas seem to be blighted with shuttered TRU stores. :-(
No 6...pass on the Four...see Subaru 4x4. 8.5 ground clearance..no,turbo...I like the look but for 40K we'll equip
Close to,50 with the kitchen sink. Sounds like a four....that iPad on the dash makes me laugh..wife owned accord 6..so I know Hondas ..she just bought two Subaru crosstreks for her and daughter...not a race car but quick..for most..Flat four well tested. and you can get a stick for fun...Honda is nice looking. But expensive in this economy
@Raiti, I actually live a relatively short distance from where you filmed this.
hahaahhahahahahahahha
Great review, Joe!
I'm a self-described GM loyalist, but if I was in the market for a new midsize sedan, I would purchase a Honda Accord. Honda did an outstanding job on the new Accord, especially the interior design and interior quality. My only complaint about the interior is that, if my memory serves me correctly, the rear upper door panels are hard plastic as opposed to the front upper door panels, which are soft-touch plastic.
Thank you Daniel for saying that! Thank you so much for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Honest to goodness review! I just wanted to see the basic model Accord, good work!
You're 9 years older than me.
Everyone's all hyped about usdm civic type r....
I'm all like, the accord is oem turbo
I'm old man river! lol
CVT Transmissions are here to stay 🤷♂️
I'm not a fan of them but it is what it is.
That is a ver good point!
No they’re not. Drive any Mazda. Crisp and fuel efficient 6 speed auto.
David Sparling there's talk of them switching over to the CVT in a future model years.
I love how you give full details in ur videos I have subscribed 😊 I love to see ur contents! ❤
23+ minutes in, still no discussion yet of comparison to Camry until 23:15. And even then the only comparison is to say Camry offers no 6MT but Accord does. Title suggests 2019 Accord/Camry comparison. Title should be 2019 Accord LX Sedan review.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
And you still managed to survive a whole year! You're stronger than you think!
Real good review. Love you point out things that real matters to me. Thumbs up.

Wow Raiti you are so thorough with your reviews ..another great vid by Raiti's Rides.
That is so awesome of you to say! I really appreciate your support!
Very fair review as are others of yours. Clicked like and finally subscribed. I went back and forth between the Accord and Camry, they're both such great choices! Motor Trend and most reviews pick the Accord over the Camry but I recently chose the 2019 Camry SE because I plan to keep the car ten years, driving in cold winters. Honda is having Direct Injection/oil dilution/contamination nightmares on this engine in cold climates like I live in. So far they admit it in the Civic and CR-V but I'm sure the Accord with the same 1.5L turbo engine is affected too. Not a big deal down South but we do a lot of short trips every day in freezing weather. Turbo seems to aggravate the problem but the Camry doesn't have that. Anyway, this isn't a huge issue unless you happen to live in the cold climates and make lots of short trips. I had to think about getting ten or more trouble free years out of a car in cold weather. Toyota and Ford use a dual direct and port gas injection that seems to resolve the DI only problem. We'll see as this story plays out over the years, heck there may be a horror story brewing for Toyota.
Thank you so much for your kind words and your support! I don't think anyone can fault you for going in the direction that you went it! I really appreciate you adding your input!
Toyota had three active recalls for pistons too large, fuel injectors, and fuel lines. Problems have also been reported with the transmission. People have posted videos of it.
@@czluver4338 Recalls - sound like Toyota is taking care of problems. Has Honda recalled these engines? Last I heard they say buy a block heater, change the oil often and don't drive short trips, instead of 5 miles drive 20! No wonder they're being sued. The future always is a gamble, we all place our bets, some win, some lose.
Hondas have the worst stock radio system I swear
I would agree with you!
Yeah, my accord EXL stereo is nothing like my wife’s Mazda 3 Bose stereo. Even talk radio sounds better on hers! haha
Um not really my mom has a civic ex which is pretty basic and it sounds good (2013)
My 2006 Accord has great speakers but the new one definitely does not have good speakers
chenzy4200 They still found a way to screw me . The LX is one amazing car even base trim , but no apple car play on the LX is just inexcusable. My Elantra I had before had apple car play . I’m just hoping there are aftermarket radio options for the 2018 at some point.
Turbos will put more stress on an engine period...oil consumption issues from previous generations of the Camry were addressed and hopefully fixed. People don't primarily buy Honda Accords or Toyota Camry's for small differences in handling and looks...its for reliability.
42SVB that’s why I bought a Camry.
I just don’t know if you can get 200-300k miles on a turbo charged engine.
@@txtchjmb29 There are some naturally aspirated engines that won't make it to 200 to 300k miles either.
Look at the 2019 camaro. These would look great in black and I would love to own this and the 9th gen
I totally agree with you!
the generation before that looks awesome/ageless.

My dream Honda sedan!! Brilliant job Joe.
Great review on the car I like/consider to upgrade to and the brand I love. Especially the description of the details of the design. Buyers need that.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
Like the dead mall background location! Nice view w/out other distracting cars in the lot. 👍🏻
Thanks Jay! It was a little spooky.
Excellent review. Looking at a used 2019 Accord to replace my 17 Malibu Premier that was recently totaled. Had a few Hondas in my day and loved every one.
Thank you for letting me share it with you!
Oh sweet I was born on October 7, 1976‼️ I say we have aged well Joe‼️ Great things to come, too‼️ Love the auto reviews. Cheers
That is so awesome Josh! I really appreciate you saying that! You are so very right and thank you for letting me share my passion with you!
Oct. 8th...also I just bought this car tonight! Same colors and all. I test drove it and didnt realize I didn't even drive it in sport mode. Looking forward to it when I pick it up tomorrow! Lol
Kody C is hot
Awesome review as always but when you step up into the sport you get 19 inch Factory machine at gloss black wheels also when you step into the EXL or 2.0 sport those are totally different animals same motor as the type are different ECU and different tuning the 200 sport has an option of a 10-speed automatic. Or a 6 speed manual. But what really makes the new Accord special is K Pro and hondata make tuning software to make both cars wake up you can get over 300 horsepower and 380 foot pounds of torque just with the K Pro and nothing else if you decide that's not enough you can run a PRL front pipe mid pipe downpipe change the front mount and what he 85 for well over 400 horsepower that's what makes the Accord superior to the Camry and the Mazda you cannot choose either of those cars you got that exhaust but you're very limited on improvements as far as horsepower and torque
Thank you so much Alex for sharing those really great points!
@@RaitisRides They aren't great points. 19 inch wheels make the ride feel like herpes and the tire cost as well can be double over the Camry's 16/17 inch wheels.
Joe what a nice review like always , you just forgot to mention one think no apple car play in the lx or is it ?
this just made me upgrade my civic to an accord
I don't know why people are ripping on the way the front end looks. It looks sick imho.
Thanks for your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
The rear looks ugly and from the side it is wayyy too long. Honda needs a better designer. The toyota sedan looks better aside from the fake rear vents.
I just bought a 2019 Honda Accord EX. It’s my second Accord, I used to own a 2005. I love the new car, however, there are a few disappointments: the sound system is just not that great; I also don’t like the way the engine idles, it seems very noisy to me for a Honda; and finally, this is my first time owning a car with a CVT and I’ve not read many positive reviews about it. I’ll have to wait and see how it does. Other than that, I love the car. I’ve had it about two weeks now.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Isaac, that’s the car I’m considering buying right now but I am also looking at the Toyota Camry XLE. I don’t know what to do. I like the interior design of the accord better though. I’m worried about reliability and the drive. But I really like that the Accord has the adaptable cruise control that lets you stop and go along with the car in front of you. The Camry will come to full stop but won’t keep going after the stopped car in front of you starts moving again.
Any updates on your experience?
ucanthavemysn what did you end up getting?
How has it been so far
The diminutive engine in this car may be a problem in that it being severely overworked may not go past 100,000 miles without needing an overhaul.
Thank you for sharing your input and perspective! I appreciate you watching!
When you consider base price of a hair under 24grand it's a great bargain esp with all the standard features & plenty of hp, it's a no brainer because you can't beat honda reliability

I just bought a 2019 Accord LX on Jan 31st 2020 for 20k all cash. Mine has dual exhaust. Drives like a acura tlx sha . The bluetooth software is horrible, you cant dial from steering wheel. Voice command software is stoneage compared to Ford. No touchscreen. Seats are super roomy and comfortable for a 300 lbs man. Kids love it. Trunk is huge.
Great review think i made the decision to get myself and daughter one touring is a must😄
I totally agree Corey!
I like the styling of the 2013 - 2017 9th gen accord. This one I'm not crazy about, the front end drops straight down and has that big black snout, the fastback is ok , back of 9th gen looks better than this one IMO. This may be a better car but not on board with the styling. That tablet screen looks like an afterthought. Maybe they can eventually integrate it into the dash instead of it sticking up, would look much better. Good review thanks.
Good review. Hope you'll do more on vehicles that the average Joe can afford and drive. Looks like a good value for the buck.
Thanks for your input and perspective! I really appreciate you watching!
Put LX in video description to attract more traffic> there are hardly any reviews for this trim!
Thank you so much for that heads up! I appreciate it!
This is a hard answer i mean they are both reliable, but i do think that Honda Accord 2017 looks a little better than 2018 design.
This is so very true!
Only the grill and taillights; everything else is better. The wheel size i hate on both the touring has 19 inch rims with low profile tires. I would like something with 55 aspect ratio. I hate that all the new vehicles have low profile tires.
d k thank you for sharing your input and perspective!
Toyota is more reliable
I am surprised that everyone says the Camry is the Accords competition. I went this past weekend and drove and bought the better car. I expected to end up with the Toyota. I drove the Accord sport first and was off to drive the Camry. I couldn’t believe the differences. That car wasn’t even close. After few miles of driving told sales lady that i was sorry for wasting her time. Went back to honda and bought my accord sport. Hands down it’s a much nicer car for same money
Thanks William for sharing your thoughts on this one!
How is the seat comfort, though? I’m interested in the LX and Sports trims. Thanks in advance.
Not only in a parking lot, really impressed with the acceleration tests in a residential neighborhood with kids on the street
I appreciate you sharing your input and perspective! Thank you for watching!
If I wanted to get a 4 door sedan/hatchback bigger than the Honda Civic Sport/Subaru Impreza Sport, I would definitely make the new Honda Accord Sport 2.0L, maybe even the 1.5L, since it had more juice/power than the Civic version of that engine.
The Camry would be a consideration if the put Android Auto in the new Toyotas instead of Amazon Alexia. But I saw the 2020 Toyota Avalon TRD, that looks really nice if you want perfomance, style, and can afford it, and wait for it.
I'm not sure if the automatic on the Accord 2.0 is a CVT, but the problem with the manual transmission versions is they are hard to find. And I believe for the non Si/Type T manual has a lot of travel for the shifter, though there are aftermarket short throw kits, but are kind of involved to install. If I go with the manual for reliability and durability, it must have a decently shorter throw, like you mentioned on the Impreza Sport previously.
jjacob25101 don’t get the 1.5 has some major issues in general engine has problems haven’t being recalls yet
@@andersonrodriguez8258 Yeah, the 2.0L Accord Sport is the gem, anyway. I wanted the Honda Civic Sport Hatchback, but probably going to opt for the Sport Sedan with the non turbo 2.0L, that had keyless entry, pu se button start, and the updated/upgraded stereo.
jjacob25101 yes stick to the 2.0 but try finding a manual Honda auto transmission not gonna last like a Toyota one so if u get the Honda get the manual
Really, I haven't heard anything about that.
Really great points! I am looking forward to see the Toyota Camry TRD at the Detroit Auto Show!
I have a 2018 accord lx but I regret not getting the sport):
I want to get my hands on the sport to view!
@@RaitisRides I love ur reviews keep it up please
Is the LX good? I don’t really mind the non touch screen but I still want apple carplay
You don't want the sport. It's nice but the ride is rougher because of the type of tires it takes. And the rims on the sport are currently the most stolen rims in the country.
It rides smoothly but I wished it had a couple more features but that’s for the higher trims.
If shopping a base your expectations are kind low going in so either option (Accord/Camry) should simply come down to looks. IMO you can't go wrong as both are well built cars and offer decent standard equipment. Base model wheels are perfect for the folks looking in this price range p.s. I voted with my money and got the SPORT 2.0 with a 6 speed. Nice review !
Very well said! Thank you so much for sharing those great points! I hope I can track down a Honda Sport 2.0 6 speed soon to review!
great video , tyvm , since cars are so dammed expensive nowadays, I'm buying the lx model & this helped my decision ,,, take care stay safe ..
I owned an accord for 11 years, just about 138K engine started burning oil, I went to Honda dealer, told him the issue that I have on my accord, dealer replied me by saying "I have same problem with my civic" .
I like Honda better than Toyota but some Honda car's engine dies just about 130K.
Thank you fo much for sharing that input and perspective from your experience!
The 2010-2012 have problems with that
BANGLA TV 4 cylinder or v6
BANGLA TV oh I have v6 and I have to replace the timing belt soon and that shit is EXPENSIVE!!!
BANGLA TV uh 4 cylinder doesn’t have belt it has chain
just terrified of the turbo into a 1.5L tiny engine, WITH potential oil dilution issues, combined with a CVT where we don't really have a great sample size of long-term reliability. 3 risks, compared to Camry's weird 8-speed auto risk. Camry's headlights are also better than Accord. I prefer the Accord's seats/driving position, but Camry is more quiet inside. Accord LX handles better than Camry L (discontinued for 21) and LE, but SE is a tough call. I though the LX was more nimble, and SE feeling a little heavier. CVT is nice never having to search for the right gear.. but 8-speed is nice simply having gears, though it isn't the smoothest.
I'm saying after test driving LX, LE and SE 3x in the past 2 weeks and doing extensive research.
I'm just gonna zonk one thing, and that's the engine size which is kinda small for a car this big. 2.0 would take the stress much more nicely.
So very true! I am hoping to get my hands on a Sport with the 2.0L engine!
Well the SPORT 2.0 is where the fun is(especially with the 6 speed). I love mine Joe !!
Without the exhaust, it looks way better...
I am so glad that you liked this one! Thanks for watching!
Our 1st car was a 1981 Honda Accord. Time for a new one.
I appreciate you sharing your input and perspective! Thank you so much for watching!
it sad that my local dealer has ditched the Accord for only the Jazz/Fit, followed by the City and Civic. The 1.5L turbo powerplant is def appearing in almost all their model lineup but only as a CVT option
no manual option except the Civic Type R
Wow that is really insane! I would of never guessed that!
Looks like I'm keeping my 2000 Honda Accord for a few more years
I probably would do the same Rissell!
I rather get the 2017 coupe V6.
I think there are many who would agree with you!
Quang Lam I have one and it’s a great car!
In our country you either see a Camry or Corolla but this car looks good
That is a really good point! Thank you for sharing!
Ah the good old times learning stick shift on 80’s EXi with pop up lights.
I love this new body of the accord!!! I currently leasing a 2018 Ford Fusion se I’m looking at getting one of theses used!!!
Do you like the fusion?
I'm stuck between buying a 2019 Accord sport and a Ford Fusion 2.7 twin turbo Ecoboost AWD
@@N3wbMa5t3r hmm that’s tough is it the 2.0 accord or 1.5
@@N3wbMa5t3r I would lean to the 2.7 fusion lol I have the 1.5 so I would go with the accord
@@orionv.13 1.5T CVT
@@orionv.13 I'm test driving both tomorrow... I heard the Accord isn't as reliable as they once were. The 2.7 liter Twin turbo Ecoboost AWD is a beast and pretty reliable.
Surprising good for a base model. We have a 2016 civic with the same engine and average around 40+ mpg; its incredible. Great review as always!
I totally agree with you! It is crazy the MPGs Honda is squeezing out! Thank you so much for the compliment and you support!
I have tested both cars, I like the Camry more, but that's my taste. like you said, no manual on Camry, on this one is looks and interior that I like more in the Camry, still both are great sellers and awesome cars. Great video Joe.
I totally agree with you! I am looking forward to see the Camry TRD!
