2020 Toyota Camry vs. 2020 Honda Accord | 10 KEY DIFFERENCES 

The new Accords make me stare everytime I see one.

I love the tight steering in my Honda Accord when I make turns. Can glide easily in and out of traffic easily also. I love it

I wouldn't kick either one of them out of my garage, and I just bought an Accord Sport 2.0.

I just traded my Honda Accord Sports 2014 to Toyota Camry XSE 2020. Love it.

I like both but prefer the Camry.

I like the new approach of Gold Pony on analysis and evaluation of cars... way to go, GP!!

Man, I just rented the 2020 Camry this past weekend and I loved it. It handles very well, it’s surprisingly powerful for a 4 cylinder car, yet a great gas saver. The only thing I did not like about it is that I felt it too low that when I got on an unpaved road I could hear and the grass and other small bushes rub underneath.

The rear legroom and trunk space get plus points on my book so I would go Accord but anyone that buys the Camry over a Beemer or Mercedes has a higher IQ in my book.

This was my first Toyota and I'm pleased. I have a 2019 SE fully loaded. I live 4 miles from work. I only have to fill up every 2 weeks. It's a great car.

he didn't mention the panoramic sun roof that the Camry has but accord does not..

Great comparison video GP! I have to admit it broke my heart to see Camry take the win 💔 But I love how you tried to be objective and true to the facts as much as possible. I have owned 5 vehicles in my lifetime and all were either Honda or Acura vehicles, all which were naturally aspirated Honda engines. I made sure all normal maintenance was always done in timely fashion and never once had a mechanical issue on either of them. I still have my 2012 naturally aspirated Honda Accord Coupe with auto transmission. No CVT for me please. Her V-tech still purrs like a kitten and transmission shifts silky smooth. I am the dying breed that still loves coupes over SUVs. So sad Honda no longer offering coupe on Accord! I have driven this 10th generation Accord 1.5T and 2.0T models and even though I could not feel the turbo lag it really was a let down that Honda took away thier naturally aspirated V6 from 10th gen Accord. I will never own a CVT transmission and it is a shame Honda is putting them in so many models now. I have to admit though this 10th gen Accord 2.0T auto 10 speed was so quick off the line on my test drive with no turbo lag that I almost bought it that day.❤ I just could not get past it did not fully meet all my wants in design and was not NA. I looked at this gen Camry as well and love that all the trims are naturally aspirated with real transmissions; not CVT but it too came up short in meeting all my wants. In my opinion, I would create the following vehicle if I could create my own version of this generation Camry/Accord with only using options offered from the two models: Combine Accord's sleek front fascia, polished brow, defined body lines with Camry's XSE quad exhaust stylish rear with toyota 3.5L V6 engine/transmission with panoramic moon roof, Honda adaptive suspension and fine tuned steering, vivid fast reactive Honda infotainment set up, camry 800KW sound system, Honda spacious interior layout with real leather seats and back row heating, Camry safety technology, Honda reverse camera with its multiple view options and parking sensors, Camry XSE two tone wheels and choice of any interior/exterior color choice/combos that Accord and Camry offer. Umm I think that about sums up the best version of both models in my opinion if I could create my own sedan between options offered for Camry/Accord. 😄

The top spec Camry actually tops out at 39k with the extra packages ON TOP of the xse v6 trim. If you go to the online configurator there is 2 packages you can add.

If you are looking for a driver's car, the Accord is a clear winner. If you do alot of highway driving the Accord will give you the wow factor. In my mind the Accord is more of sporty ride.

I would pick the Camry. Love the red leather and NA engines.

I like this comparison format! Can’t go wrong either way in my book but I love that V6 👍

They are such good cars to compare that there is no need to. I have a Camry. But love the accord also.

I would definitely get the Camry they have the panoramic sunroof!! On top of the fact that is more reliable and dependable and gas mileage and the v6 and red leather. I have an 2018 XSEv6 and I was thinking about maybe switching and doing something else but I haven’t seen anything else compared to it

The Accord looks better the front stands out more and more space on the inside.

I would pick the Camry. Not with the red interior. How about adding the transmission and fuel injection to the comparison? Cvt, direct injection and turbos are 3 things I avoid in a new vehicle.

Accord all day long. The Camry is a great car but I don't like the busy front end the busy dash set up. The Accord is clean and slick in and out. Bigger back seat, more luggage capacity, and the 2.0t will smoke the v6. I'll take the Accord.

I’m getting my first car in 2 years n I wanted to know which car I should get I’m looking at the 2020 Honda Accord EX-L 1.5T . Opinions ?

Love the channel dude 🤙

Toyota just announced the Camry AWD and Avalon AWD

Perfect timing I've always loved camry, but wow you made the choice a little bit harder with the accord!

At first when both these cars got the refreshed look i was so inlove with the Camry but the Honda accord have grown on me and all i want is a accord now lol maybe it's because am from 🇯🇲 and its very popular here, i see them everywhere but am yet to see a Camry.... too bad i can't afford either tho 😂

Interesting video!!! Good job! Do the New Ford Mustang EcoBoost and the old one comparison! 2015 vs 2020🐎🚗 is the 10 speed transmission worth it?

If you want a reliable sedan that focuses on performance, then the Honda Accord Sport 2.0 is (in my opinion) the best choice. -- If straight line acceleration is your only criteria, then the 6 cylinder Camry wins (and not by much). So buy the 6 cylinder Camry. In the ¼ mile, the Accord will still win. But the Camry will have a slight advantage from a dead stop (due to slight turbo lag from the Accord). So light-to-light, the Camry has the edge. Otherwise. the Accord has the edge. If you want an overall top performing sedan, then the Accord Sport 2.0 wins. Here's why: 1) It handles better. If you want to take a turn at speed, the Sport 2.0 stays glued to the road and has minimal lean. The Camry is also good, but not as good as the Accord. 2) The 2.0 Accord will almost always match or beat the Camry's acceleration, and the Accord will get better gas mileage. 3) (only a guess, but a 4 cylinder car (Accord) will probably have lower insurance premiums than a 6 cylinder car (Camry) -- assuming straight line acceleration is paramount). Note that the 2.0 Accord will handle better than the 1.5 Accord. This is due to the 2.0 having Michelin tires from the factory, and the 1.5 having Goodyear tires from the factory. For these specific tire models, the Michelin's handle turns better. Note that I am referring to pushing the car sideways around a turn (or at least hugging a turn). If you will never take a turn at speed, then none of this matters. There might be differences in the suspension between the 1.5 and 2.0 Accords? If there are, then that, too, will contribute to the handling. But the tires are different (and tires matter!). ----- By the way, the stereos that come with either of these cars are all nothing special. If you rate a stereo only on how loud it gets, and how much bass it can pump out, then I guess the Camry wins. But if you value realistic sound reproduction, great imaging, great soundstaging, etc, then neither of these cars does an outstanding job. In my 2003 Nissan Sentra, my stock stereo sounds better than either of the above. If you close your eyes, and you can tell where the speakers are, then the stereo is not very good. You might still like to listen to it. But on a better stereo, the speakers "disappear". You do not hear a mechanical process producing sound. Rather, you hear a wall of music with no identifiable point of origin. I recently purchased a 2.0 automatic Accord Sport. It is great (not perfect). My old Sentra's stereo is definitely better -- and not because I am used to it. Honda and Toyota have the resources and could have and should have done a better job with the stereos. My guess is that whoever is currently in charge of this area has different (and not good) taste in quality sound reproduction. By the way, the Nissan Altima's stereo is also a yawn. Cheers!

Have a 2014 Toyota Camry SE 4 banger. Reliable and great gas mileage. Just bought the 2020 Honda Accord 2.0T Sport after test driving both. Honda just more fun to drive, handles better and very torquey. At the end of the day, you cannot go wrong with one or the other. You won’t be disappointed.

Honda Accord Sport 2.0 Turbo 10 speed automatic transmission is a beast...

While looking to replace my old 2006 Hyundai Sonata V6, I wanted a NA engine. I test drove a Mazda 6 and the LE/SE versions of the 2019 Camry. Although I liked the Mazda 6, I liked the Camry SE better. No Accord this time around. Like some in the comments, I also didn't want a CVT or turbo.

Accord Sport 2.0 with 6 speed cant wait to purchase

thanks for sharing, informative!

If the Accord had a V6, I would probably take it over the Camry. But for now, I just cannot take a direct injected only four cylinder turbo engine over a more refined smoother better sounding V6 that is both direct and port injected.

The Camry is just as reliable, safe & economical as the Honda but I love 😍 the interior color, sound system & more powerful torque of the Camry. I'm getting a Camry! 😀

Wonder if that IIHS Top Safety Pick + would go on an 06 Camry may I ask?

Accord sport 2.0 is a Beast! Camry's are nice, I had one.....but none can compare to Accord, not one year model.

I bought the Accord, my first Honda after many Toyotas. One thing you didn't mention: Styling. The front end of the Camry is very large, and low, and I'm not a fan of the beehive grill. I have driven a recent Camry often, and I never failed to scrape the front end when parking. I also preferred the interior layout of the Accord as well, without the big "V"

I’ve owned both the Accord and Camry and recently, I was going to buy another. Even though both are fine, I spent way too much and bought a top of the line Mazda 3. In my opinion, it’s not quite as refined but much more fun to drive; it just scratched the places I was itching.

What if you wanted to lease one would that change which one you would personally choose

Sold Camry for 20 years. This one comes down to personal taste. Most of your categories that went to Camry could have been judged a tie. Accord likely better road feel, more fun to drive.Camry likely softer, maybe smoother or just a bit quieter. And, Accord will be less money to purchase. But it’s the personal reaction to the car’s focus that determines which is the best selection. As you know, Honda’s are fun, they feel good and respond quickly. Camrys are great but not as sporty, instead softer. And that Accord is huge for people as well as cargo. So, TWO WINNERS.

I just bought the 2020 Camry SE two weeks ago, and love it so far

I do like your format for comparing the 2020 Toyota Camry & 2020 Honda Accord. You've taken the work out of reading reviews on first one and then the other and trying to remember all the differences. Next time you do a comparison like this I would love to see you add a few more factors to evaluate on the Interior Quality element. You did review amount of plastics and interior color choices which are important. However, I am more interested in the features of the driver's seat since that is where I will be spending a lot of my time. Which vehicle has the most comfortable driver's seat? Is there lumbar support (2-way or 4-way)? Is there a thigh extender function and, if not, is the seat bottom long enough to support your legs comfortably? What about the bolsters and the amount of cushioning in the seat bottom? Another factor I would love to see you evaluate on the Interior Quality element is the length, width, and comfort of the front seat armrests (both on the doors and in the center). Then, there is the factor of interior layout of the buttons and controls - are they easy to use and which vehicle does a better job. Thank you.

8:02 Camry XSE V6 , of cause. In addition, accord does not offer the panoramic roof that makes the accord look simple when putting next to the Camry. I will let you know when you park 2 above cars side by side in a parking plot at noon, you immediately can tell the differences. Which one looks shine and attracts your attention than the other 😁😁😁

I loved this video.. honestly I’ve been a Honda owner for years now, ever since I owned my first car.. but I like both cars they are both very good reliable cars.

Appreciate the comparison, very easy to understand. Do have a comparison between the hybrid versions?

Good comparison review. I would have liked it if you had given your opinion on the sound quality of the sound systems, rather than just going by the numbers. I agree with you, the engine in the Toyota is the clear winner. A naturally aspirated 6-cylinder beats a turbo charged 4-cylinder any day, hands down. I do like the interior of the Accord better, and the head unit is far superior. That head unit on the Camry looks straight out of the 90s. It's a close comparison. I'd have to drive both, to be sure. My head says Camry, but my heart says Accord.

Team Camry. Had the privilege to test drive both vehicles and the Camry just won me over. Toyota loyalty program discounted my 2019 XLE V6 $9,000 dollars cheaper than the Accord.

I’m going to go with Honda because thay do offer a 6 speed manual for just $31 and change

I like the Accord front end and interior, but like the Camry rear end, profile, and V6 engine. Both overall nice looking sedans.

Cant go wrong with neither car. I own both a 2015 honda accord exl v6 and a 2018 toyota camry xse.

In these California, Los Angeles streets Honda prevails. We talking hills, racing, stop and go intensity driving, sharp turns, bumpy roads. In general for the traffic and environment Honda cars have it diagnostically tuned.

thanks for posting

Accord 2.0T Touring has a nicer interior, better driving dynamics (especially in sport mode) and better safety tech (Honda Sensing). Also, the rear seats are roomier and trunk is more spacious than the Camry. Camry had a better sound system but that was about it.

I lean toward the Accord for the interior and exterior styling but disappointed that Honda has no choice but a turbo...that is a deal breaker. And also noticed on the display it only shows"FM" radio option. Can you no longer get AM radio on the new cars?

What is your take on honda's oil dilution problem, does it impact accord engines as well..? I heard 1.5l turbo engines have this problem

I think many enthusiasts refuse to accept that the Camry has outdone itself this generation. The XSE v6 w red interior and black roof is just perfect. My dream car 😍

I have to 2018 Accord EXL 2.0 .... like it more than my previous Q50 3.7 .... not as fast obviously

Great review. This was exactly what I was searching for. Thank you!

Just got my 2020 honda 2.0t sport july the 31st, and i love it, the Camry look weird 2 me!!

Manual transmission only for me, and like the Accord

Tie in my family. I just bought a 2020 Camry LE and sister just bought 2019 Accord EX

You helped me buy my 2016 Camry, and I'm bias because I own a Camry! However if I could be a Camry I'd go with Accord!

I like accord sport 2.0 😍😍👍🏻

you should have reviewed the 2020 Honda Accord Touring 2.0T the top of the line instead of the sport the 2nd to last trim

Team Camry ✅

I hope Honda watches this. The accord is my favorite. It looks better, in my opinion, and it definitely drives better, no argument about that. But Honda could definitely improve a lot, especially how they messed over the American market. In Canada, the accord lx comes with Android auto and apple CarPlay, and the base 1.5 sport in Canada comes with a moonroof and turn signal indicators on the side view mirrors, things only available on the exl and touring in the U.S. In Asia, the accord comes with more interior color options, including a peanut butter colored leather interior and not to mention the Asian market gets a panoramic moonroof. In this day and age it's unacceptable for Honda to include their probably worst in class audio system. They definitely should've put in a branded audio system. Toyota provides us with JBL, Hyundai and Kia offers us Bose and Harmon Kardon, Mazda also offers Bose, Ford offers Sony, and Volkswagen offers us Beats. Hopefully Honda makes these improvements with the mid cycle refresh.

12:07 lmao this dude looks dorky when you know he’s not listening to music. Just nodding his head to add to this part of the video.

Depends on what the driver is looking for.. Speed and sporty suspension, Accord. Overall reliability, Camry. Unless were putting the TRD Camry into consideration, it will also win in the speed and reliability classification.

The Camry, that red interior, and finally android auto, and the hybrid is a option.

Why would you put the audio test as a Tie when the Camry has 800 watt speakers?

I’m ready to pull the trigger on either of these cars. I love the Camry with the red interior. I also love the Accord touring 2.0. Just wish I could get the Honda in pearl white with red interior.

Memory Seats in EX-L Accord , but I didn't see that in the Camry. Is that true ?

I own an 18 Accord Sport 2.0T with the 10 speed. Awesome car and fun to drive.

I love honda, but CVT sucks tbh, and I would like to have a NA rather than a turbo.

Test drive both cars end up with the Accord 2.0 turbo

They actually gave us updates for Apple CarPlay for the 2018 Toyota Camry which I’m thankful for cause I would’ve been pissed if Toyota cheaped out and didn’t roll out an update

Does the accord have rear ac vents? I didn’t see them. Doing my research before buying my next car. Have to have ac in the back seat living in the south.

Like the comparison, Like Camry

You actually claim that the both top trims are a tie in power but every other review has the accord as faster. Every drag race and there’s plenty of them on RU-vid the accord touring destroys the Camry v6. If you have to try to convince your audience halfway thru your comparison that you’re not bias chances are you’re simply bias. You’re the first person on RU-vid to give the win to the Camry so you’re truly in a class of your own.

Another difference is transmission u can still get the accord on manual 1.5 and 2.0 engines on the sport

Camry 💯

Love the comparison!!! I’m partial to Toyato having had a 2005 Honda CRV (which was an excellent vehicle). Then I got a 2010 Toyato Prius (wonderful with the Hybrid performance). Traded the two for a 2015 Toyota Avalon. Excellent in every way. Still driving it now in 2020 (actually, I no longer drive because of epilepsy, so, the wife does all the driving). She insisted on the Avalon and I’m glad we got it. Love what you did with this video and with the Avalon being in the higher category, this comparison you made gives me a sense of pride in the Toyota Product. Look forward to seeing more of your work. Thanks for being so thorough in such a small amount of time!!!

Hey drew, loved this video. This kind of comparison is great. I own a 2018 Camry LE but I do love Honda’s. I will always choose natural aspiration over turbo any day in my daily driver because of long term reliability. My last Toyota (a 1998 corolla) lasted over 350k miles and was still going when I sold it to a friend. Has about 370 now. Toyota’s are undoubtably more reliable, though I admit Honda is a close second. Maybe in the future you could pick a trim level that is most popular like LE and compare that to the equivalent. I’m curious; if instead of taking a macro look at the car and all the trims you instead honed in on one level of the tables would turn. Still would avoid the turbo though.

I got the Camry SE yesterday blk.on blk.

Camry for me.

I pick CAMRY.I love the agressive styling, I have 2019 Camry LE.

Camry. Honda bring back the v6 and the coupe

Just bought the xse 4 cyl and love it

Both are great cars, but my preference is long life and fewer and less expensive repairs. I would stay away from turbos and CVTs, so Camry wins.

Love both . Honda or Toyota only for me since 96. Just purchased a supersonic red xse AWD.. love it.

I like the variety of interior color that the camry displays. Like the red interior.

I test drove both cars, 2019 models and ended up buying the Honda. I really liked the engine/transmission and interior/interior space just a little more than the Toyota but it was nearly a flip of the coin choice.

You need to weight each criteria from 0.0 to 1.0 because their importance are not equal. For example, rear leg room to me is highly important so it gets a full weight of 1.0 where as trunk space may only be a 0.5. The final score will be different.

What really matters with these 2 cars: Honda 1.5L T with oil dilution issues plus the unknown with how that turbo will hold up and effect the engine long-term. Toyota with some gear-hunting and mild downshift delay in the 8-speed. Pick your risk.

I'm loving the Honda Accord especially in white! That is a winner in my book!

Well, I'm thinking to get the Toyota Camry SE Nightshade. But, they are pretty decent cars themselves.

Accord looks better more roomy handles xlnt . and small powerful motor which is the future .

Yiu can also get ivory color ont the seats on the honda accord

Always loved Honda but I bought a new a Camry. Both great cars but the styling of the Camry is much better

I choose Honda front, Camry rear...put together awesome!
