It’s sad that Toyota turned the TRD badge into little more than an aesthetic body kit. I love the looks of the Camry TRD, but it really should have a manual option and a slightly upgraded V6 VVTi engine to match Honda's VTEC engine (even if it only gives 5, 10, or 15 extra hp).

The fact the Type R is lighter and has 54 hp and 22 TQ more than the accord is all you need to know as to how impressive the Accord 2.0T is. Obviously the engine is vastly underrated and it has a smaller turbo than the Type R which gives quicker torque for around city driving.

Great comparison. No real surprise to anyone, Type R won. That thing is a track weapon that just happens to have four doors and a usable trunk. Funny to think people would cross shop a Type R and a Camry but we did. We wanted something fun to drive, practical and reliable. Before we got our Type R, with money in hand, our short list was the the Hyundai Veloster N, the Honda Civic Type R and the Toyota Camry TRD. The Hyundai with its 100,000 mile warranty was not available in the color we wanted and the Camry was a little too big for our garage AND it did not come in a manual. Not having the Camry TRD with a manual option is a big missed opportunity for Toyota. Sure you might loose some seconds in a drag race but for driving enthusiasts it is also about the thrill of the drive and rowing your own gears give you that. We were able to find a new Type R at MSRP within our hemisphere and snatched it up. Oh well, turns out we ended up with the fastest car and the most fun car to drive but when you factor in the savings by a few thousand with the other cars, that choice is not always so clear cut in the beginning. Again, well done.

Same here! It kind of reinforce the the purchase of the our cars! 🤣🤣

same engine as the Type R, just different turbo. You could do a Type R turbo swap in an Accord. Or just tune the Accord 2.0t and gain an extra 40hp or so

You can always modify the TRD to be faster with D3 performance chip, Weapon R headers, cold intake and turbo through D3 Performance for around 7 grand. Stock its not slow but I bought mine due to rarity and upgraded it immediately to be fast

[@ogi-9346]

Type r with just the hondata flash pro and PRL cold air intake will beat it anyways.

@@CaliAmg okay toyota dude

[@CaliAmg]

@@ogi-9346 we can agree to disagree but Honda will have its plus and minuses as with Toyota products. All I'm saying is that ANY car can be modified to be fast if you're willing to spend 7 grand or more for performance upgrades. I've seen Honda Civics smoke stock Lamborghinis but again they were heavily modified to do so. Nothing wrong with the Type R but waiting on Toyota to either bring the Supra Manual GR or their new Camry GR super charged to the plate

The Accord is an incredibly underrated sleeper. Total Dad Car. I'd love to see Honda give it the V6 twin-scroll turbo from the TLX Type S. That would be a Dad Car with Old Man Strength.

[@OmarZ77]

Yup or even a full blown Type-R engine instead of the detuned one. But yes, since it’s as big as the TLX, why not the Acura’s

[@weduhpeople8504]

I own a 2018 fk8 type R and just bought the 2021 Honda Accord 2.0T touring for my wife. I can attest that 10 speed transmission makes the Accord surprisingly fast! Once they both get into curves on the road the Type R will leave the Accord in the dust.

[@StandngOnBusiness]

That top end on the R crazy i thought for sure that 10 speed accord was going take it both times

[@mcwendel8066]

That’s a bit embarrassing how close those races are LOL

[@NoEgg4u]

This video focused 100% on straight-line acceleration.
However, what sets the Civic Type R apart from other cars is its handling.
The Accord does handle quite well for a family sedan. But the Civic Type R is in a whole different league, when it comes to handling.
If these same cars were to race around a race track, the Civic Type R would win. It would not even be close.
The Civic Type R is closer to Ferrari level of handling than it is compared to the cars in this video. However good you think the Civic Type R can take turns at speed, you are mistaken. It is better than whatever you think it can do.
Most people love to focus on straight-line acceleration -- including me. But I also love a car that can do 1+ Gs around a turn, and that is where the Civic Type R shines.
The Civic Type R is an all-around race car, with none of the "money pit" problems associated with other sport's cars. In other words, the Civic Type R is super reliable, and a blast to drive. That is an almost impossible marriage. And it even gets good gas mileage.
If only the Civic Type R did not look like a monstrosity aimed at the children's market, I would consider purchasing one. And if Honda married it to their 10-speed automatic transmission, it would take the car to new heights.
Cheers!

[@nickmotsarsky4382]

The Type R is still utterly hideous, so none of that handling really matters, unfortunately.

[@NoEgg4u]

@@nickmotsarsky4382 Honda is stubborn with the Civic Type R looks.
If they made it look sporty...
If they made it look as good as it drives...
I suspect that sales would increase quite a bit.
But they are stubborn.
Right now, their customer base is limited to just those that crave a great handling, reliable car, and can tolerate its looks (as well as a handful of people that probably like the way it looks -- some people like ugly).
And if they offered the Civic Type R with the same 10-speed automatic transmission in the Accord, they would increase sales, further, especially with all of the press they would get on how much faster the car can launch, as well as faster 0-60 and faster ¼-mile times.
I purchased the Accord. I would have preferred the additional performance of the Civic Type R. But I just could not get past its looks.

[@stilmotionpicture]

@@nickmotsarsky4382 so you're for looks over functions. Damn.. sucks to be you.

[@nickmotsarsky4382]

@@stilmotionpicture No, I just don't want to drive around in a clown car. I'm not 16 years old. Nor can you max out its handling on the public street, so it doesn't matter. I have a crossover that smashes the Type R in performance, anyway..
