Decent vehicle. I just bought one a month ago, i love how the dash changes colors to let you know if youre saving gas or not. However, the biggest reason i bought this is because i need a car to last for a couple of decades.
@@mccrock2820, i followed the maintenance schedule even though my dad kept telling me i could leave things for a little longer before replacing. Im at 105k now, about 60% highway 40% city. No real problems yet. Knock on wood.
This is BY FAR the best CVT on the market...this one actually lets you FEEL shift points under heavier accelleration. That, along with Honda's reliability make it not only fun to drive, but ensures that the fun will actually last.
Minimal issues with my 2015 LX, 78k miles. Mirror issue I never noticed.. maybe my car didn't have it. Zero challenges with the starter. Minimal oil dilution issues. Zero CVT slippage, even at steep grades. Had no problems with the CVT, and actually preferred the immediate "downshift" compared to other cars (2018+ Camry) having to hunt for the right gear when you just need to go. Averaged 36mpg per tank, 70% highway. I did 6 hour drives with the cloth seats in the LX and was never uncomfortable. Really a great car. Only real issue was left rear power door lock stopped working. not a big deal since I rarely use that door. I could still manually unlock it with the button, and would just leave it locked all the time by default. Some wind noise in the rear.. overall road noise wasn't great, but I got used to it. Bluetooth always sync'd to the phone before I even got in the car. Always worked flawlessly. Backup camera was great. Tires.. while on the narrow/bubble side (205/65/R16), were at least cheap to replace.. $110 for Continental True Contact, which had better ratings than what came on the car, Pro Contact. The only main downside to the 4cyl Sedans is the cornering. Lots of body roll! Those curves are NOT fun with this car. However you'll find forums on a simple easy 30 minute do it yourself rear sway bar upgrade that helps the understeer/body roll significantly. I never got around to doing it myself, but people are confident in it.
I've owned 4 Honda Accords .... Great Cars .... Looking Foward to checking out this New 2013 Accord . For a family sedan , I think you get what you pay for over the life span of the car . Sure some of the competition is cheaper in price , but who knows how they will hold up in 5 - 10 years . Other than average wear / maint .... I've never had any major issues with my Honda Accords and have kept each one for over 200,000 + Miles . I think you get what you pay for , plus the resale value on these
I have a 14 with the 4 cyl and 6 speed manual. Perhaps Honda is more honest with the EPA numbers. EPA is 25/34. Never got less than 32. 3000 mile trip to Yellowstone was 38.5! Outside the park, speeds were 75 to 85, In the park was 45 mph. The '14 have nicer cloth. I paid less than what I thought a Civic would cost.

I remember the day I first rode in a 2013 Accord, it was a Touring sedan. I was 20 years old at the time (10,668,930 minutes to be exact). I remember being so happy, I was texting back and forth with a friend about something unrelated and then I texted her that I just rode in a 2013 Accord and I was ecstatic, I ran into my dorm with a grin from ear to ear. Some people say they hate Mondays, I'm here to tell you that Mondays can be awesome. (My first time in an '18 Accord was a Friday though) I found out later on that Margaret Thatcher died that same exact day and I thought that was sad. Comment posted December 24, 2019 6:26 am
😂😂😂 thank you I'm 20 been driving since 17 in I think blind spot monitoring is a extra distraction when you have drivers that really don't know how to drive be worst drivers like people if you adjust your mirrors there is no blind spot !!
You guys do a GREAT JOB! The camera work and commentary you provide are among the best, if not "class leading" for auto vlogs, and I subscribe to many here on RU-vid. Just wanted to send some appreciation where it's due. May God bless you all as you continue to use the talents He has given you.
Honda's not gonna fuck up their Accord like they do their Civic now. This is their real flagship and it still will be even after another NSX is released.
i just got a new 2013 accord.....its awesome! Handles amazing,looks higher class with a sporty twist....proud to be seen out in public with that car for sure
Looking at reviews of the car with good praise make me happy that my dad kept his 9th gen for 6 years before giving it to me. The 9th gen is an all around car
I love the redesigned Accord. It's competent, capable, charismatic, and charming. This review was very informative and respectable. Introducing the new Honda Accord. This is a car that will bring a family to their destination many times over in exquisite style.
I am a Sr. Sales consultant for Bryan Honda of Fayetteville. I agree with this video. 27 years driving Hondas and I tell you after driving this Vehicle I am so pumped up. Honda hit the mark. So much to this new accord things you only get on luxury $50k and up vehicles. Come see me or go to nearest Honda dealer and judge for yourself. Again why should you not buythis Sedan. It has all Honda is about. See U Soon! Romie Hawthorne
Just got an Accord this past week. In fact it's the same color as the reviewer was driving. Love it, love it, love it!!! And I totally disagree about the seats. Love the cloth even if reviewer thinks it's outdated.
This will most likely be my next vehicle. My beloved 2002 Kia Optima is showing its age. I was torn between the 2013 Ford Fusion and the Accord. Test drove the Accord last weekend and was blown away by all the standard features & beautiful interior. The outside is a bit uninspiring but I'm not running along side looking at it. Most of the time the driver is inside. I really love the low belt line and the plentiful glass. I'm only 5'2", so I really need a low belt line and rear window
For me, it was between the Ford Fusion, Honda Accord and Optima SX and I'm leaning towards the Kia...The Optima is simply the BEST looking midsize sedan on the road in my opinion and value is second to none. Think I might be joining you at the end of the year
Dad owns a 2008 accord 4-cylinder and at 100k it's burning a quart of oil every 1000 miles. Honda dealer says it was a computer problem, tuned but the problem remains. The problem is well documented. Honda used to be a class leader. Buyers need to look objectively at other manufacturers. Badges mean nothing
I have a 2012 black Honda Accord EX coupe with a five speed manual that rocks! Not only do I get looks, I get double looks and long stares even from other men. It’s a work of art: it’s beautiful with its lines and curves. The 2013 Honda Accord coupe’s looks are disappointing: it looks more like a Camry. What is the point of having a car you don’t want to stare at? I can’t see buying anything less in looks. I hope Honda gets it right the next time.
to all of you "who die" owners this a the all new honda accord,stunning looks, solid ride,quality workmanship (with top materials) inside out,reliability,resale value,safety and reputation that no other car maker can match in the midsize class,enough said,go buy one and be happy.
I love CNet and Consumer Report for car reference. This review of your team stands out on on the visual front. The clever use of camera movement along with a movement car, the harmony of car interior lighting and the articulate delivery of the presenter combine to make it also outstanding.
Not sure why so many idiots complain about CVT? My next car will be CVT just because it has no jerk if you slow down and hit the accelerator like automatics. Also, in areas with speed bumps, you don't have to wait for the car to downshift before hitting the accelerator. It just feels smoother.
Awesome video and music is great also. Best Accord that I seen since '94, '95, '96, '97, '98 models. The competition will have to take a back seat this time.
No matter how you look at a Honda. It is the most perfectly engineered automobile in the world. I hope Honda never changes the way it makes cars. When the Japanese want to sell more cars, they higher better engineers. When we Americans want to sell cars, we make better commercials. The difference is there in a nut shell.
I owned several Honda cars. Accord 91 and 2013, civic 2001 and Crv 2007. For a japanese company that is supposed to over engineer the smallest of details. All of the cars i mentioned have a poorly design seat, no adjustments, no lumbar, other then a stiff seat, the seats have not changed. MPG have improved but my 2013 accord in NYC everyday driving gives me about 25 mpg. The brakes on every Honda lack a sense of stopping on a dime. I have to admit every model i owned was the basic model LX trim. Since these cars are bought as daily drivers. I think Honda needs to worry about getting the ergonomics of the driver seat correct before worrying about anything else. Is it that difficult to make a car that makes the driver comfortable, i think comfort should be their #1 priority. That should apply to any trim lever of car bought from Honda.
Sadly, we don't have an Accord Coupe video review prepared just yet but we hope too. There should be a written review up on AutoGuide next week. I promise it will be entertaining.
this accord gen will be a massive hit IMHO, standard on their lowest trim comes with rear view cam, dual zone climate, ALLOY wheels, usb plugin, bluetooth for 21.6k... beats altima, camry, malibu and fusion (although they are still good cars). can't wait to trade in my sentra in for an accord sport!
I love the back of the Genesis sedan and think it's one of the greatest hind ends on any sedan. Why lie about ... it looks like the genesis from the back and it looks great lol.
This color is available with all trim levels in the states while in Canada you gotta get the top of the line v6 touring and pay 36,000 if you like this color. Only black interior is available with all trims in Canada. I am glad to see that Canadians have been boycotting Honda since they adopted this color policy for Canada. Honda doesn't hate Canadian but from what I heard, a very senior personnel of HONDA was caught drunk driving in Toronto and was fined and given suspended sentence. This Canadian color policy kicked in a few months after his arrest.
I have had the chance to drive this car with the CVT. Under half throttle accelerating onto the freeway, the car really behaves like it has an automatic transmission. The RPM's will jump just like an auto when it downshifts. The CVT is also very nice in stop/go traffic as you wont have to go above 1.5k rpm to get to 20,30 mph.
After seeing a bunch of new accords at the dealership today all I can say is ... holy crap whats acura going to do now. They looked like they were just dropped off and the first thing I saw the back end - and from that angle it looks like a 40k car, particularly in black. They had a sport, lx, V6 EXl, EX but no touring. This thing could easily have an L badge on it and 10k added to the sticker. It is extremely tasteful and mature in ways I wasn't expecting. 25k dream machine lol.
Having sat in a couple of these now at the dealership the only conclusion that I can come to is that honda is back. The way that they can take the base 23k car with a a gray interior and make it feel so tasteful and classy is a feat - it's almost how you'd expect a 50k cloth interior Merc to feel. It's graduate program smart. The seats are excellent and address one of my pet peeves in 98% of cars ... they have a long bottom cushion that almost reaches your knees (well mine anyways).
