The 2021 Honda Accord Touring is an Enticing Midsize Sedan in an SUV Obsessed World 

Thanks again to Keeps for sponsoring this video, remember to click here and get 50% off your first order: www.keeps.com/redline! Do you guys feel that Honda pushed the envelope enough to keep the latest Accord competitive? Let us know if you would still consider this car or are its rivals starting to get more appealing these days?

Own a 2.0T sport and its a brilliant car for the money. The acceleration really pulls for a family sedan.

It's so revealing when he does the acceleration test. If the car doesn't make him giggle even a tiny bit, then you KNOW it is disappointing. If he busts out with joyful laughter, then you know the car is a beast.

I built those cars for 23 years in Marysville, Ohio. I wish they still built a two door version.

This makes way more sense than any EV under 50k right now. Great fuel economy and solid build quality, if I didn't need AWD, I'd buy one in a heartbeat.

Note to self: go to older videos and look at sofyan's hair

Where are my Honda owners at??

The sound of that engine at full tilt was soul crushing. The 2017 Honda Accord V6 Touring is still the best looking and performing Accord. Honda got it right with that one🏎

Bought this exact color 2021 hybrid, changed out from 19 inch rims/tires to 17 inch and love the smoother ride . Very quite cabin, easy to average 40 mpg combined.Also bought a space saver tire , and jack.

The taillight is the only thing I hate about on this generation, otherwise this is the perfect Accord.

Just drove my moms 18 accord hybrid for the first time last week and now I understand why she loves it so much. Definitely a great car with a very nice interior for the price.

I love my 2018 accord LX, paid 21,900 that year for it brand new. Best purchase ever. Nice pull, great gas mileage and really thoughtful features. I don’t even miss the apple car play considering the price point. Still on original tires and brakes. Just great.

Damn!! The Keeps sponsorship shoutout was the most entertaining piece of this review!!!! I was laughing my ass of while Sofyan kept a straight face talking about male pattern baldness then he mentioned that subscribers commented that he was losing hair himself! Ouch.

Love my 2021 accord 2.0 touring sonic gray pearl, thanks for the review of the hybrid!

I own the 2019 2.0t Touring. I’m still loving it!!

I'm so sick and tired of SUV's- seriously, there are far too many. I love the Accord- great review.

“Earth Dreams” sounds like a 70s album

FINALLY THEY GAVE THE TOURING BETTER WHEELS 👏

Came for the Accord stayed for the hair loss treatment

Very detailed review and a lot of information to absorb...excellent review!

I think the sweet spot is the Hybrid, especially if you live in a big city. 0-60 is 0.5 seconds faster than 1.5T, and MPG is twice the 2.0T.

I like the look of the pre refresh accord. Especially the front end

One thing that’s extremely disappointed about this refresh is the new start up chime. The 2018-2020 Accords had the best start up ever. It was very elegant the new one sounds like a old 2003 Accord 🤦🏽‍♂️

This is without a doubt the best Accord ever designed. It’s hard to believe that the complete redesign in 2023 is getting closer.

Great stuff. I love your work.

I am right here to find out... Great review Watching from Nigeria

It's good to see you correctly describe the transmission in the hybrid, Weber Auto on youtube physically breaks down this transmission and shows how it works. The only wear part is the clutch pack that connects to the gas 2.0 motor, the transmission should out last both the other transmissions. Keep up the excellent reviews.

Love your videos. One of the best in the business.

My daily is a 2006 Acura TL and it's amazing to see how many features are now in the Hondas these days.

Leased the 19’ 2.0 Sport and got 22 MPG average. Then got the EX-L 1.5 and MPG is around 35 on average and performance is still good. The 1.5 is the best comprise on MPG and performance IMO.

The engine noise would be a deal breaker. That would get annoying quickly.

I was really hoping those lobster claw tail lamps would be revised on the 21 model. Oh well.

I'm 28 and balding. I just shave it all off and rock it. Only way to go!

Great Review...as always

If they made the accord with a sport back trunk, that would be a game changer.

I love the accord but Honda kinda socks at refreshes lol. All we needed was a premium audio system and full LED taillights. However... I won't be too judgemental since this car will be 4 years old in a few months. A redesign will be here in about 2 years and it's a guarantee it's gonna be class leading like it's always been

That drone would kill me. Reeeeeeeee

Keep these videos coming

Set in the Seat of many in this class....but the few times i set in the passenger seat of this Gen Accord ...i dont think i felt more comfortable as just the passenger, and everything felt just right...Truly Believe it is King and will be for years regardless of how it looks on the outside.

Incredible that back in 2018 it was considered the best mainstream sedan and now if felt behind... I own a touring 2.0 2019 and and even if the taillights don't look that good, I need to force myself to like it for a few more years! Hoping that Honda brings wireless android auto- apple car play for 2018-2020 models. Thank you for your review

I’m really considering this car but was wondering about the power train if the 1.5 isn’t a bad choice? And wondering whether this is practical over a crossover like the crv?

Remember guys its not how much power you have. but the delivery of that power.

I own one and after having it for a good bit it is an awesome car. I also need to mention that I am 6’6 and fit well in it so it to be a midsize car, it is really large inside. The pick-up is incredible with the 2.0 Turbo, the technology is incredible along with the ride… especially for the money! You should have compared the 2.0T touring to the others when you gave it a hard time. Then you mentioned the paddles, in the 2.0 they do shift the gears. That hybrid sedan is not for power it is for economy. Btw you also mentioned heated steering wheel heat is not available but that is incorrect. Mine has it but is an upgrade accessory from Honda Dealer Accessories. I do have one complaint with it, the internet is horrible and does not work well at all. Oh yea I agree with you the screen could be larger. Thanks!

Yo take it easy with that head bang my guy! 😂

It’s getting tough to locate a front license plate as required in several states due to all the sensors in the grille.

That engine sounds like a shop vac cleaning a flooded basement. Unacceptable for any price point, especially from Honda.

easily the best mid-size sedan on the market. i'm a mazda fanboy, but the 6 needs a transmission with more gears to compete. people complain about the looks of this gen accord, and i have no idea what they're smoking. it's a gorgeous car, and i love the fastback-like sloping roofline.

If Honda does not offer AWD, Panoramic moonroof, bigger screen and premium speakers on the 2022 Accord, they won’t get my money.

Love your car video I’m thinking about buying a Honda and I live In ny

I have a 2018 1.5T Touring Accord and I absolutely love it! Normally 3 years in, I am starting to get bored and ready for a new ride but not with this Accord. It has all the tech features, practicality, and drivability that satisfies me. I thought about the 2.0T when I bought it and also the Hybrid but the deals on the hybrid were practically non existent and I decided the 1.5 was good enough to keep me happy (and I was right). Finally gas mileage is nothing short of phenomenal. When I am driving conservatively, I can see over 40 mpg on the highway. That makes me very happy. When I do replace this car, there is a good chance I will do so with another Accord. No sense in doing that until after 2023 when it is completely redesigned. My wishlist for that redesign: get rid of the claw like taillights and replace with a full LED set. Also let’s go full digital on the instrument cluster like the Civic and CR-V.

15:26 FUNNIEST PART OF THE WHOLE VIDEO. SOFYAN'S FACE SAYS IT ALL

I have a 2021 Accord. Coming from a Fusion it’s amazing.

Thanks for this review! I was considering replacing my leased '18 2.0 EX-L with a '21 Hybrid EX-L, but not after hearing the engine drone when you floor it. I'll have to splurge for a 2.0 Touring, which I didn't want to do considering I only have a 5 mile commute once my office opens back up.

Two years ago today! This still my first car.

I have a 2019 Hybrid Accord EX. On freeway, too much road noise in cabin. Any better with 2021 model?

I got major hair loss... ON MY BALLS.😂

Honda should have kept the V6, like the Camry

I don't get Honda's logic on the refresh for the Hybrid, I remember when companies tried to improve fuel economy instead of sticking big, heavy, dragging 19" rims.

I was hoping to see an Accord 1.5t review since you've done a review on every version of the Accord except the 1.5t.

that engine noise is no joke. cvt is just not my thing. great video

The wheels are giving me life

I have a ‘19 Accord Sport 2.0T. It’s been a good daily driver. I don’t care for the tail lights but besides that, there are really no complaints.

I’m quite impressed with how this is the first Honda that looks nice with business suit lol

You can get a heated steering wheel as a Honda OEM accessory option, its about $150 plus install cost.

the droning 4 cylinder LITERALLY sounds like a lawnmover. like i made sure my neighbor wasn't mowing his lawn lol

I wonder what if they adapt this exterior signature for their primary vehicles in terms of strategic schemes. It may encourage them to focus more on other terms.

Accord Hybrid 0-60 Guide! Turn off traction control, enable brake hold function, put it in sport mode, come to a complete stop, take the foot of the brake pedal, and when ready, smash the gas pedal as fast as possible. The key is to hit the gas pedal instantly! No 2 feet engine revving method required. Electric motors respond better if u hit the gas pedal instantly from a complete stop. I clocked 0-60 in 6.3 seconds with a little bit of a tire spin, so I'm sure it can do 0-60 in 6 seconds. Mine is a 2018 Accord Hybrid

In the US sedan sales are falling off a cliff Accord and Camry use too sell almost 450k units a year each

Idk... the 2016/2017 accord is still my favorite look all around!

I really wanted the sonic grey touring, but had to settle with the white because it along with the red are the only colors that have the Ivory interior options

Just like you said it doesn't wow me. There is no denying the Honda accord. Honda has been doing this for centuries and have earned every praise. I've been with Honda for a while now and times before and I've just grown numb to it. Honda just doesn't excite me anymore. I guess I've gotten to the point that it's time to experience other manufacturers and what they offer. I know what to expect from Honda and that's a compliment.

The accord touring 2.0t doesn’t even compete with the sonata, K5 or Camry anymore. It’s competing with base model 330is, a4 and c300s. It’s that good.

What sedan has a flat floor in the rear that isn't fully electric?

Can you do a review on hyundai kona night edition?

I would take this engine option over the 1.5t. No oil dilution or carbon build up issues

The Kia and Hyundai don't drive with the refinement level of the Accord. It's that simple.

That nice door close thunk sound it's good but it eventually goes away with wear , does that on all cars , it's the rubber seal

Awesome review. Handsome car, beautiful dash, great looks, fantastic MPG........however that engine noise.....ya....bring on the EV's.

I drive a '19 Accord with the 1.5T base engine and I like it. It looks good, gas mileage is better than my previous car ('18 Mitsu Outlander Sport) and I sit comfortably and I am a very large man. I want Android Auto and was considering upgrading to get that but I will hold off. I don't want a higher payment than what I have.

Another great review brought to you by hairline reviews

15:28 When your asleep at the condo and the lawn care dudes show up. lool

I have the 19 sport, it's good so far

It’s funny how everyone complains about the Accord’s tail lights, but not the NSX’s. They are the exact same.

Can we talk about the fact that the Camry only sells more because Toyota sells to rental companies and Honda doesn’t

Beautiful car. Love the wheels

I leased a 2020 Accord LX 1.5t. Love it. Coming from a 2018 Civic EXT. My third Honda...can't really go wrong. Never had even one issue with these cars. I trust Honda over Kia/Hyundai, even though they may have more tech

that acceleration noise was terrible

3:41 wait really. To me the horizontal lights look more premium to me.

Came for the Honda Accord but stayed for the lawn mower

Why didn't you clean the snow off of the Accord ?

11:02 Not again lol This is at least the 2nd time he hit his head getting into the rear seats lol Manual is really getting more and more rare as time goes on.

Should put on the title that it's a hybrid...

I’m between an Accord and a Civic si. Both being fwd, can anyone tell me if the lsd really matters? The only reason I am thinking about the si is the lsd, but if it doesn’t really make a difference in every day driving (winter with snow), then Accord it is.

Those lights are nice

I wanted this car so bad but after the nightmare I just went through with my 2014, I decided on the Camry 😦 Still, this car is nice, especially in blue 💙

The radar sensor needs to be behind the H logo, it’s still looks a bit tacky

with that big ole center tunnel, im curious if an AWD is in the future.....that cant be just for the exhaust.

That sounds just like a giant leaf blower....LOL.

I was upset the Accord doesn't show up the individuals tired pressure.

I like that after all these years, Honda finally gave the Accord a digital speedometer that does MPH. Even though it's always had a digital display in the instrument cluster lmao
