The Honda Accord sets the gold standard for family sedans, equal in reliability and resale only to the Toyota Camry. Spanning six decades, the Accord is a perennial used car favorite, offering value, safety, and efficiency in a variety of forms. A best-seller since the late 80s, finding a low-mileage Honda Accord on the used market shouldn’t prove difficult, making it easier to negotiate a reasonable price. This review focuses on the sedan, but there are coupe, hatchback, and even wagon versions at various times in the Accord's history. Let's track the Accord's evolution and see which best fits your needs.

Honda Accord (11th Generation: 2023 - Current)

Key Improvements: Opting for the latest Accord over the previous generation comes down to powertrain choices and styling. There's more rear-seat legroom and a more streamlined dash with a larger touchscreen interface. The most significant change is losing the 252-horsepower high-output turbocharged engine on the most expensive trims, replaced by a fuel-efficient hybrid setup delivering a combined 48 mpg. Features previously unavailable on the Accord include traffic jam assist, extended blind-spot monitoring, Google built-in, and a digital instrument cluster. Everything else from the previous generation, including the entire Honda Sensing suite of driver assists system, carries over intact.


Honda Accord (10th Generation: 2018 - 2022)

Key Improvements: The tenth-generation Accord is a major step up from the Accord before it, although the two split bragging rights for interior space. The differences aren't ground-breaking, but the new Accord has slightly more rear-seat legroom and trunk space, with the previous model winning first place for front-seat headroom and legroom. The Accord coupe is no more, as are the last generation's V6 and normally-aspirated 4-cylinder engines, both replaced with smaller turbocharged motors. The previous Accord Hybrid’s engine carries over unchanged. Depending on trim, you’ll find Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, dual-zone climate control, push-button start, navigation, a head-up display, ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and a 450-watt audio system. The Honda Sensing system (forward collision warning, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, and automatic high beams) becomes standard.

Model Updates: A major refresh in 2021 brings new styling, standard wired Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, optional wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a standard 8-inch touchscreen, and standard continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT). Unfortunately for enthusiasts, 2021 marks the end of the manual transmission Accord.


Honda Accord (9th Generation: 2013 - 2017)

Key Improvements: The ninth-generation Accord improves on an already great platform, shrinking its exterior dimensions while increasing interior space. It features upgraded 4- and 6-cylinder engines with more power and better fuel economy. Body styles include a sedan and coupe, with a new Sport trim introduced. Advanced driver-safety systems begin to creep in around this time, with upper-level trims offering things like Honda’s LaneWatch blind-spot monitor camera, lane-departure warning, forward collision assist, and adaptive cruise control. The Accord Hybrid reappeared and even provided a rare plug-in variant, which only lasted two years.

Model Updates: For 2014, the Accord Hybrid returns, bringing a Plug-in Hybrid version along for the ride. For 2016, the hybrid model takes a leave of absence, but lots of other good things happen. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto show up on the EX and higher trims, while Honda Sensing is standard on the Touring trim and available on others. The Touring also gains parking sensors, rain-sensing wipers, and heated rear seats. In 2017, a more robust and fuel-efficient Accord Hybrid returned to the fold.


Honda Accord (8th Generation: 2008 - 2012)

The eighth-generation Accord pretty much follows the same template as the one before it, offering 4- and 6-cylinder engines, no-option trim choices, and solid scores for reliability and resale. In this generation, a five-door hatchback called the Crosstour joins the Accord family, but lackluster sales make it a one-generation-only model. On an Accord this old, the most advanced safety systems are airbags and traction control. High tech for this generation includes Bluetooth phone connectivity, satellite radio, voice-controlled navigation, and a 6-disc CD changer.


Honda Accord (7th Generation: 2003 - 2007)

The seventh generation Accord gets a more wedge-like design, with more interior room but otherwise the same recipe of engines, transmissions, and features. Ride and handling are improved, as are cabin quietness and feature availability. Around this time, features like steering wheel audio controls and side-curtain airbags start showing up on select trims.


Honda Accord (6th Generation: 1998 - 2002)

The sixth generation grows in size over the previous one, but the styling becomes more conservative, at least on the sedan. The coupe wears unique sheetmetal making it a bit sportier. A VTEC V6 arrives for the first time, setting the stage for a series of more powerful Accords.


Honda Accord (5th Generation: 1994 - 1997)

This generation sees the first V6 engine join the Accord family and the first VTEC 4-cylinder engine, which promises more power and better fuel economy. The wagon model from the previous generation carries over but ends its run here.


Honda Accord (4th Generation: 1990 - 1993)

Given its mechanical longevity, you may still be able to find a fourth-generation Accord, provided it has yet to rust out. This is the generation where the Accord grew up from a compact car into a midsize car. Although the styling for this generation is more conservative than before, additional features and upgraded interiors made it quite popular. But, the government-mandated motorized seatbelts? Not so much.


Honda Accord (3rd Generation: 1986 - 1989)

The Accord really got its groove on with this design, highly coveted for its sleek styling, upscale interior, and bullet-proof reliability. The third generation is the last to offer a three-door hatchback. It's the first time customers can buy a two-door coupe and the only time the Accord touted concealed pop-up headlights.


Honda Accord (2nd Generation: 1982 - 1985)

Building on the success of the original, the second-generation Accord presents a more squared-off design, with more modern interiors and features, such as power windows and door locks.


Honda Accord (1st Generation: 1976 - 1981)

The first Honda Accord took the US by storm. It offered never-before-seen features for a compact car, such as side-window defrosters, a graphic display to show if a door or hatch was open, and maintenance reminders of when to change the oil and rotate the tires. The Accord’s CVCC engine burned so efficiently that the car didn't require a catalytic converter. Americans fell in love with the Accord, and sales skyrocketed. Although it started as a three-door hatchback, a 4-door sedan soon joined. Rust proved to be the first-gen Accord's Achilles Heel.
