Honda Accord

Posted: 10 Sep 2012 03:33 PM PDT

The Honda Accord has grown from a compact to a mid-size—and now full-size, model—over its more than 35 years. The Accord was first a hatchback, but a sedan model was introduced after a few years and quickly became the more popular body style in the U.S. Today the Accord lineup consists of Accord Sedan and Accord Coupe models.

2013 Honda Accord

Posted: 05 Sep 2012 02:00 PM PDT

After years of very careful, measured evolution, mid-size sedans seem to be in the midst of a sea change. Radical redesigns are being subbed in, safety-tech and infotainment features are flooding (not trickling) down from the luxury brands at a record rate, and the V-6 engines that used to be the bread-and-butter of the segment are no...

Nearly every week, we see the debut of a new app that half-heartedly promises to end distracted driving once and for all. This time around, however, the app du jour does something a little different, which makes it -- if not perfect -- at least a bit better than its predecessors. Anti-texting smartphone apps like DriveSafe.ly and SafeCell have...


2013 Honda Accord: First Drive

Posted: 10 Sep 2012 03:00 AM PDT

If there's been some kind of communique planning out the obsolescence of V-6 engines in mid-size sedans, Honda must have missed the memo. With the Hyundai Sonata and Kia Optima already two years into an all-four-cylinder engine lineup, and for 2013 the Chevrolet Malibu and Ford Fusion both banishing V-6 engines from their lineup in favor of turbo...


2014 Honda Accord Hybrid

Posted: 10 Sep 2012 03:00 AM PDT

The 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid and Accord Plug-In Hybrid add a pair of new hybrid options to the latest generation of Accord mid-size sedans. Restyled and updated for the 2013 model year in gas-only form, the Accord line expands for the 2014 model year to include both a standard hybrid and the company's first-ever plug-in hybrid, with an...
