    Correction: 15:56 Instead of a transmission, the 2.0-liter engine powers a generator that runs the propulsion motor in normal driving. At higher speeds, the engine drives the front wheels by means of a lockup clutch. Linear Shift Control is designed to mimic a conventional drivetrain’s gear shifts under acceleration. The 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid does not feature a gearbox. Shoutout to @Gary Hawkins !

    Had a ‘20 Accord Touring 2.0T and was planning to upgrade to a ‘23 Accord Touring 2.0T only to be extremely disappointed to learn that the 2.0T had been nixed. Found a Certified Pre-Owned ‘21 Accord Touring 2.0T that only had 4k miles on it. Sold my ‘20 and bought the ‘21. I will keep this car for a while and enjoy every minute of it. Mine is Sonic Gray Pearl. Unless Honda comes back to their senses and offers a higher performing Accord, my 38 year run with the brand will likely end. I still can’t believe how they dumbed down the new generation. Such wasted potential. I love the 10th generation of the Accord. It’s almost perfect.

      I hear ya man. That’s great you were able to find a lower mileage 10th Gen. The Sonic Gray is an awesome color. Every time I see an 11th Gen on the road, it just baffles me Honda would screw up a formula for success. Let’s hope they get the message and come up with something better for the mid cycle refresh or 12th Gen.

    Hello , I have a 21 Touring and actually love it but around Dallas Texas where potholes and uneven pavement bumps are everywhere and the 19 rims do take a beating (with a slight bend in one rim) also the trans can be jerky but you just have to learn how to finesse the gas pedal. I love my Ivory colored interior and think the contrast makes it look very classy.

    • @adventuresandstuff
      @adventuresandstuff  Год назад +2

      Hey, that’s great to hear about your 21 Touring. In regards to the tires, yes our rims can take a beating. It’s because the tires that come stock are very thin with not much tread wall. If you increase the tire size to 245/45 or higher, it should cushion those bumps a lot better 👍🏼 it’ll also fill in the wheel well gap better as well.

    I have a 2018 lx with 78,000 miles and I keep getting calls asking to buy my Honda back and upgrade to a 2023. Should I?

    • @adventuresandstuff
      @adventuresandstuff  Год назад +3

      @ericahunt5770 Hi Erica. Honda dealers and most car dealerships will typically call owners to give incentives to trade in their cars for a new model. It’s because car dealers make more money on used cars than on new cars. So if they can get you to trade in your 2018 LX (which they will most likely give you a low ball offer), then they can turn around and sell that 2018 LX for much more. In regards to the 2023, I would say check it out…take it for a test drive and see if you like it 👍🏼

      I traded my 18 lx with 116k two weeks ago for a 23 sport-l and got a solid trade value for it even with body damage.
      I don't get all the hate. It's so much more than the 10th gen. It has plenty of power with the hybrid.

    With nearly all car makers abandoning performance in favor of doggy hybrids, I'll be keeping my 2018 2.0t Touring for a very long time. Looks great, very comfortable, every safety and convenience feature you could want and amazing performance and handling in sport mode. A blast to drive on windy mountain roads. I too am not a fan of the noisy 19 inch wheels, never mind the worst turning radius of any car I have ever driven. But beyond that, it is pretty great. What Honda has done to the new Accord is criminal. It is the ugliest thing I have ever seen and I have no use for hybrids with their mushy performance and handling and high insurance costs.

    • @adventuresandstuff
      @adventuresandstuff  3 месяца назад

      All true 👍🏼 every time I see the new Accord I just shake my head. I made this video over a year ago and had the idea of trading this car in for a M340i…never did it. Our 10th gen Accord has more space, comfort, and value than the M340i. I might just keep this for the long run. Glad to see you’re enjoying the 10th gen as well. What color is your car? Have you done any upgrades to it?

    Great review very thorough EXCEPT; the 2023 car does NOT have a CVT transmission. In fact it does not have any transmission in the normal sense of that description. The ICE engine powers the electric dynamo that send electricity to the two drive motors, sort like a diesel locomotive. For that reason, it does sound and feel like a CVT. I do agree that the changed emphasis from performance to fuel economy has turned me away from Honda as well.

      I owned a 2018 Accord Sport 2.0T. Good car until a drunk T-boned me. Replaced with a 2019 VW Jetta GLI with the dual clutch transmission. Added an APR tune and better wheels/tires. Very fast and handles terrific for a rather ordinary looking sedan. Gas mileage is better than the Accord as well. Smaller of course, but back seat is still OK. Never use it anyway. The Arteon would satisfy that requirement.

Among the thrings removed besides the amazing power train: adaptive suspension. built in navigation, the cool color-changing climate control knobs. Hell, even the spare tire. The dull overall body styling also was probably much cheaper to make than the old model.
