We bought the accord touring 2.0 T for my wife and now we fight over who gets to drive it. It’s one of the best cars we’ve ever had. Comfortable, very quick, excellent handling, massive backseat so my kids are comfortable, it’s like a civic SI for moms and dads
Glad I bought mine. No regrets. Question is do I need snow tires and #nd set of wheels for NJ winter
My brother bought a Honda pilot touring and his wife drove it to work one day and hasn't relinquished the vehicle. He's 6'5 and he driving a Miata with aftermarket eyelashes. 😂
Would like to know you experience 6 months into your ownership!
That's funny Lololol
I seen one of these driving the other day. The rims really stand out in the sunshine.
In exuma?
Bought one a month ago, blows me away every day and get tons of comments on it
This car is amazing!

"paddle shifter test"
The camera should not be on your face.
The camera should be on the road, or perhaps on the shifters.
@4:58
"acceleration test"
The camera should not be on your face.
The camera should be on the road.
Your viewers should see what you are seeing.

"...that about rounds out the performance segment..."
The handling capabilities of the Sport model were not put to the test.
Anyone considering a sedan, that also wants a very good handling car, should know that Sport model, with its 19" wheels, low profile tires, and beefy suspension, can take turns at speed, and do so faster than most people would ever try -- and the car will hold the road with ease. The Sport model can take a turn a lot faster than it looks. It is not a mid-engine Corvette. But it is very, very good.
I am not suggesting that anyone drive like a nut. Even a million dollar Ferrari will lose control if pushed too hard. I am pointing out that for the Sport model, you are paying not just for its looks. You are paying for a suspension (especially when put into "Sport" mode) that is designed to hug the turns.
The 1.5 liter models come with Goodyear tires.
The 2.0 liter models come with Michelin tires.
The Michelin tires are better performers. However, most folks will never take a turn fast enough to notice the difference between the two.
I own one and I love it so much, great commuter car and you look good in it. I recommend it
This car and the Mazda 6 are hands down the best in the mid-size segment. You can't go wrong with either one. The Camry has also come a long way in terms of design. It's always been reliable, but boring. Not anymore.
Exactly. Be nice if AWD became an option but no deal breaker. Just get the right season tires based on climate
absolutely right
it depends on your goal, if you have a lot of money for every 5 years to get a new one go ahead, fan to drive comfort etc, but that new tech doesn't last
@@MrJpiarull camry has awd
The 2.0 is the one to get.
pete mama facts
Still weak
Nice review. The brakes get mushy at high speeds IMO. This needs a Limited Slip Differential for the power it delivers. Get out of that 1.5T and get in a 2.0T! You'll thank me!
The 1.5 is not that bad mine has no trouble passing cars on the highway the 2.0 is quicker sure but the 1.5 is good enough for me
Nice review! Loving my 19 Accord sport! Happy to see nothing changed for the 20. #honda
I get my Accord Touring in 120 more days 🙌🏽🙌🏽
@Gold Pony I dunno man, the rear end tail lights are so freakin ugly. They call em 'crab claws' or 'lobster claws' here and its such a dealbreaker for some of us. Why couldnt they use honda insight's taillights instead? Ugh...
Your going to love it.
@@battosaijenkins946 Had they used the ones you like, other people would have said that the current ones look better.... they can't win that battle called "personal preferences".
@@martinc.720 Are you crazy? Who the #$@! likes that "stapler gun looking", "lobster claw-like" taillights man? Gimmie a break dude... its a dealbreaker for many of us, Trust me~
@@battosaijenkins946 "many"... you said it yourself. Now use your brain a little and understand that not everyone will like the current style, and not everyone will like the style you talk about. That's all I'm saying... no design will be liked by everyone.
Just purchased black on black 2020 Sport 2.0T 10 speed. LOVE. This. Car.
Awesome car! Congrats! 😁
Gold Pony
Thanks! Your review was incredibly helpful!
I just bought mine yesterday the same black on black 2.0 Sport!
This one is what my grandparents have Honda runs in my family
sub 6 second 0-60? amazing. what a value.
Only if the driver is a child and gas tank if empty.
Sylvester Mroczek too bad it get 30+ on the highway, what a shame...
Sounds weird but I tested both the accord and civic and actually preferred the civic. I like the civics exterior and interior styling a lot more, especially on the hatch. I also think the digital dash on the civic looks way better. Only thing the civic is missing is the option for the 2.0 turbo which would have been amazing.
The 2.0L turbo would be the Type R... Amazing car 👍
Gold Pony lol yes of course but with the option for auto in the hatch would be unreal. Plus the version used in the accord is detuned from the R.
Might be my next car by default
You mean you have found a hybrid or under 30 grand? I live in Colorado and I cannot find a hybrid for under $30,000. And I'm really needing one to commute back and forth to work I absolutely love the Honda Accord
Honda Insight too.
I have another request for you Gold Pony. Can you do a review of the 2.0L Manual sport? I am interested in buying that one.
Got it a few months ago, go test drive one you won't regret
MPG is important for me. I'll be driving a lot so I'll stick with 1.5. Now I'm down to Sport or EX. I feel like EX is no brainer, but it's quite pricey.
I used to Re use your videos .... actually I don’t have a opportunity to to create my own I thank you 🙏 so much
Awesome video love my Honda👍
Went back to stick shifter? Glad I got mine in 2019. Buttons much better and cleaner.
Robert Lindeman 1.5T has regular shift lever. 2.0T and Hybrid has the push button.
@@blakelyfantastic Oh I see. Thanks. THe push button system is really nice, and the cabin is much less cluttered.
i have the ex trim and i noticed today that the volume indicatior on the dash wasnt showing. is there a volume indicator on the dash?? i just got the car and remember a volume indicator being there
The Accord LX has THE WORST seats I've ever experienced. An incredibly frustrated LX owner of 1 week here. Get the next model up or get something else entirely. The "lumbar support" presses into the lower back unlike anything else. The seat cushion is minimal and has minimal thigh support. The result is lower back pain, butt discomfort, tingly sensations in the leg and foot. During the test drives I felt happy with the seat, however after sitting in it for more than 15 minutes you start to notice discomfort that turns into actual pain. Now I have to invest in seat covers and cushions for a brand new car. Unreal. Girlfriend is uncomfortable during drives longer than 15 minutes as well. Really great.
Yeah, that’s definitely a concern of mine, seat comfort. I’ve read similar complaints with the Camry, too. I took an Altima for a test drive, and the seats were great, but I’m scared of Nissan’s CVT. The dealership does offer a lifetime powertrain warranty, but I have a few concerns with the Altima, period.
I need one of those original rims for my cl7 accord it would be beautiful
The olive garden seat material just kills it for me. Put leather in there, leave the cloth to the basic model
I think he mentioned that this trim level was just the LX trim, which means it IS the basic model. Leather is in the higher trim levels. Of course, later on it's revealed that it's the Sport trim, which I figured it would have been.
I don't care what particular model the car is, the olive garden napkin material is used for the cloth seats is ugly to me.
@@428steve You originally said that the cloth should be in the basic model, which is why I commented. When I finished the video, it was more obvious that it wasn't the base model. If you want leather, then get it.
@@chetthehoss Is leather available in the sport model?
@@428steve Unfortunately, I don't think it is. Just the EX-L and Touring.
Accord or Camry?
Very nice in every way!
Can you do a review for 2020 Accord Touring please?
Does the passenger electric seat go up and down? That's one thing I don't like about my 2016 Accord
BUYERS BEWARE!!! There is a wide known issue with 2018-2020 accords.... The digital numerical speedometer is ONLY available in KPH, and does not allow MPH. Honda has REFUSED TO FIX THIS, and they do not stand by their product.
BOYCOTT until this is fixed. They have lost me as a customer for life until they fix!!
Bruh
Who cares
😦Why is Honda going to discontinued the 6-speed manual transmission in the accord, did it sold well, Is that going to be for the 2021 model year? Right now the manual sales are tricking off even further since the automatics more technology to shift faster than any manual.😦
Great looking wheels
There are a lot of money makers for Honda on the 2020 Accord. Here are just a couple. 1. Wheels stick out further than the tires so when parking it's easy to damage the wheels on the curb. Wheels are around $250 each. Honda will try to get you to rotate the tires so that in short order all four wheels are damaged.
2. Front end. The sensor and the inter-cooler are within 6 inches or the car's front and protected by only a couple of pieces of plastic. If you hit anything firmer than a beach ball prepare for a hefty bill. These are just 2 things that make the parts department happy. There are others. These money makers have been around since at least 2018 and obviously Honda is happy with them.
Nice the 2020 Honda accord looks bigger
Gold Pony where the hell is a 2 liter turbo detuned K20 Type R engine? That's the one you should have reviewed or both
This should’ve been an Acura the rear lights are just like the RDX
The accord is always going to be the go to ,and all around vehicle of choice#TheAnswerWillAlwaysBeHonda
too bad it looks like crap. I mean its horrible looking
@@beautyqueen5800 🤷🏽♂️
This fella sure like to “Super” quite a lot.
you missed Accord Sport 2.0t $32,000
I own a 2019 Sport 2.0T. Great car.
It’s a great car I have the 2018 EX-L 2.0t fast as hell.
Men your review is awsome
Thanks! 😁
do you have a Digital speedometer for mph ? dont laugh people make sure you have one if it matters before you plunk down anything
None for mph but you can turn it on for KPH. Weird.
Is the honda right turn camera featured in this 2020 model?
I'm hearing some complaints of hood flutter at highway speeds.
None with mine that I'm aware of
None with mine either. 2.0t sport
Yessssss, I have the 2018 1.5L
@@marcellusdevon549 are you experiencing hood flutter?
J J yes I am when traveling high speed when on the high way.
the only company that you know your going to get 300k on the engine
gerald Williams i doubt it’ll get that much and this coming from a Honda fanatic previous engines non turbo charged engines got 250k a smaller engine with a turbo no way its gonna get 300k you might be lucky if you get 200k
I have the 2.0T, at least 200K miles if you're not ripping it constantly on sport mode. I drive mostly on econ or norm, but I'd say definitely use premium gas and either the Honda OEM full synthetic or Amsoil. Even though it says regular 87 octane is fine, I'd stick to premium, I notice no marble-like noises of engine-knock after shutting it off.
@@NinjaPickups well that's what ur mouth say...I have a 2000 accord ex 3.0l..356k I gave my uncle a 1999 ex 4 cylinder 375k miles..my cousin 2000 accord coupe has 340k miles on it ..taking care of your car using Honda parts & fluids will get you 300k miles easy...I know some people that still have there Honda accord from the 90s and it's still going 280-350k miles they drive to work...but 4 you to say that u can get 250k miles on the engine or 200k miles what world are you living in that it can't get another 50k turbo or non turbo? you wouldn't know what the new turbo charge engines will do now? you'll get more miles & less problems if u got it from Japan...
@@bigearl8687 bruh did you not read my comment? I said i doubt the new turbo engines will get 300k cuz of how small it is and the turbocharger did i say old engines didnt last long i meant 250k as in minimum btw why you gotta sound like a brat i love Honda i legit said ima Honda fanatic i only get Hondas/Acuras i baby the fuck outta my Hondas "well thats what ur mouth say" so childish
@@NinjaPickups go to bed
Hi, Gold Pony. What would you choose bet Accord 1.5T manual over Civic Si?
For the space I'd go Accord but Civic Si will hold its value better over time I'm sure
Gold Pony Thanks for the info. I have a growing family so am leaning towards Accord. Your comparison info between or outside brands are really beneficial
I am getting one :)
No more cámara on the right mirror??
2:34 wait, 22 in the city ?
Can i hit that eco botton on and off any time during the drive ?
Correct 👍
Heated rear seats and yet no climate vents? Wtf
Delay on pedal shifters are very disapointing.
honda always has a weak sound system
mccali 2019 Altima sounds better
When have you been in a Honda??? I guess not lately. I mean if you just brought a Civic Si. Yeah the one with 10 speaker 450 watts. It sounds nice. I also previously had a 2006 Acura TSX. That also had a nice speaker. I played them for like 13 years. I think I blew some of them lol.
@@terrancemoore496 yea he's prolly referring to the base Hondas (LX trim). My dad had a 2010 Accord LX (sound system was crap). I have a 2011 Accord EX-L V6 and it's a much better system (more speakers and a built-in subwoofer) Mine may not be the best, but is sureeee ain't weak
Well...the speakers dont suck anymore but they aren't the best. Kia's integration of Harmon Kardon sounds the best from what I've heard from Toyota, Mazda, Chevy and Nissan
Maybe the new hondas..
I still own a 1993 Accord with 371,000k with Bose speakers.
I’m sorry 2016/2017 accord best looking
Yup i cant buy a newer Honda gonna stick to older Acuras and Hondas
I think so.
Brakes, wheels and suspension, that's all she needs!
If you guys want to see more on the accords, watch my videos I have made on my 10th gen accord
You shoukdn't the right person doing any Honda promo with you hat backward
That IS backwards.
The next time you want us to know the power on a car, don't focus the camera on your face, we prefer having the camera facing the road.
K good suggestion... I'll try to fix that next time 👍
Honda alway have front wheel drive
❤🔥
If you get an accord you gonna give paint issue like pelling
I'm pretty sure that all those who complained about this own white Hondas. No peeling in other colors.
Yes it's the best. We all know this...
VTEC😩
for the love of goodness change the front end
This car is badly underpowered.... Just ugly car overall... What the hell is a 2.0T going to do to that big body?!?? It's dying for a v6.... Is Honda smoking crack? Drove one the other day it struggled to get to 60 from how heavy it is....
I actually agree. I would love an N/A V6 in the Accord! 👍
The engine sounds like crap , screaming as it is stressed out
Great video!!! I just did a video on the 2020 2.0T Sport Model on My Channel.
CVT? I'm so OUT!
RAINBOW wait what’s wrong with CVT
Dude cut sucks but u get use to it I got. 2015
Subaru Legacy XT?
They needa get rid of that chrome mono brow
Am I the only one that thinks some of these Honda rims kind of look like swastikas?? I swear Honda is trolling everyone.
26 c 35 h
IMHO...They are still just as ugly and cheap looking in the back. Was hoping they would change that for 2020. Speaking of cheap....get rid of that black plastic on the mirrors🤦🏽♂️ Definitely not feeling that awkward looking display in the middle of the he dash. Wheels are just meh for me. Definitely better looking sport wheels on the 16/17 Accords and so for those reasons. I’m out🎤⬇️
No. They’re boring, they aren’t sports cars and they’re ugly as shit. Absolutely hideous. I’ve owned a 16 Accord and it was the most dull, boring car I’ve ever owned. Overrated. I’ll stick with REAL sports sedans - the Accord is a basic grocery getter.
paddler shifters are total waste on cvt engines .the 2.O Works perfect with the shifters ...
No it’s not it’s still fun to drive with the cvt they do the same shit one has real gears and the other has fake gears so either way it’s not useless
They ruin this awesome car with that ugly tail light.
More RUclips infomercial hype. I have the 2.0 Accord Sport. But you owe it to consumers to mention the 1.5 liters have severe oil dilution problems. So much so that Honda extended the warranty a year. Otherwise, this is just another commercial for Honda and not a "Review".
During my 1.5hrs I had the car I did not experience any oil dilution issues. It's hard to test that kind of thing with only a short amount of time that we have the car for.
@@goldpony how about a little research on Honda extending the warranty for exactly that problem. Which is all over the internet. Or do you just get something shiny from Honday and glow about it.
I review my own experiences with the car. Most reviewers don't touch reliability because we don't have the car long enough unfortunately. I hope you understand where I'm coming from here. Appreciate you stopping by!
@@goldpony Cmon' man. It's a joy ride commercial and not a consumer review if you don't even make mention of the word on the street on the 1.5T. If Honda is extending the warranty on those engines it's worth a mention. It becomes a Blackberry review with nothing "bad" to say.
Michael B. You’re tying to be as deceiving as you are claiming the maker of this video to be. He’s testing an Accord which have not had any widespread issues of oil dilution in the engine. Honda extended it for those who have certain Civic and CR-V models. Also, this is something that affects people in much colder climates.

Maybe you should do a little research before going on a deceitful rant?
Still think my 2017 Chrysler 200S is better
👏👏👏🤣🤣🤣
Hell nah 😂😂
@@theking54077 Hell Ya
Justin Wunder nahhh. jelly bean ass car
@@theking54077 better than being a cheap ass car Honda's are cheap quality of materials are awful
It is too ugly!!!! I do not like the Accord, I like the Camry better because it has a V6, panoramic sunroof, and red leather seats!
The accord drives better, has more room and the seats are far more comfortable than the Camry's. But the accord's looks aren't for everyone 😂and I am disappointed in Honda for not including a panoramic moonroof. Kia offers a larger pano sunroof than the camry but this isn't an Optima comparison so...
RED SEATS...YUCK
@@kyron2092 Most vehicles dont have a panoramic moonroof...lol
@@donkey3187 the majority of new vehicles nowadays from midsize sedans to pickups will offer a panoramic moonroof...
@@kyron2092 "majority"? Not true
The most played out car, too. At Every corner you see at least one, unfortunately.
Oscar Lopez had one since 2018 brand new. Amazing car, but the sound system absolutely ruined the experience for me. Switching it out for aftermarket is a pain in the ass too(which I did and regret) and Honda punishes you for making changes like that. Waiting to trade in for a Tesla or hopefully a refreshed model in the next year or 2.
No lie. I bought the 18 model over a year ago and wasn’t seeing them that much on the road as they were relatively new. Once I started seeing them a few times I assumed it’s just my bias since I have one too so I notice them more. But I think it’s just that everyone and their mother has one now and it always seems to be the nice Sport trim as well.
It's budget friendly car, and reliable, of course everyone will get one. You don't see a lot of lambos around because everybody cant afford one.. Duh!..lol'
