The Brand-New 2023 Honda Accord Gets Its Mojo Back: It's Not Only Frugal but It Looks Like THIS!

[@ShadowRaptor8]

I've been watching this channel for several years, and loved it since I lived in Boulder and thought it was so cool to have a local car channel. But these recent Nissan ads are the most egregious thing I've seen from an automotive channel; I've never seen a channel not disclose the relationship with a manufacturer, let alone run a whole corporate ad in the middle of a review for a different brand.

[@cody6009]

Honda in my eyes will forever have my gratitude as the 2009 Honda Accord I owned not only made it to 260k miles , sadly driving home on the hwy 2 months ago a 12 point big buck came out of nowhere and I hit it at 75mph that car completely saved not only my body but also my life. I walked away with zero injuries. Air bag deployed all the crumble zones in the front of the car worked and absorbed the entire impact of the crash. Not one single window smashed or broke. I will forever look at Honda as a life saver and a future buy when I'm in the market for a vehicle.

Yes! They even get rid of those nasty hydraulic lifts for the hood, and give us a PROP ROD!! How classy is that!

Honda has pushed to 2.0t NA on all Hybrids. The only 2.0t cars will be the Type-R or Acura's A-Spec versions. So we will have to shell out $40k to get the 2.0t in a car moving forward. Sad because it is a wonderful engine design with tons of midrange power. They really need to build an Accord Hybrid option with the 2.0t, but Honda's eCVT cannot handle the 250HP+.

[@Sayua-chan]

I wonder if this is the same hybrid system as the new Civic. What I mean is there would be no gearbox and the car would run on electric motors 99% of the time, while the engine is used to recharge the batteries. However, upon reaching highway speeds it would clutch the engine with front wheels, while el. motors act as regen (when you let off the gas / decelerate). I know it sounds complicated, but it's also clever.

[@yepnop3]

While I think the last Gen looks better, I might upgrade to this simply bc it's going to be a while before a fully electric Accord becomes available. Plus I'm sure aftermarket options will be nice. But I'll definitely grab the Prologue in 2024.

Great preview. I've been waiting to see the new design for quite some time and this new model looks great inside and out. However, I've owned a 1998 and 2003 Accords and currently own a 2016 Accord, all with the V-6. I would have loved to see this with the 2.0T because I like some power in my car. Unfortunately, without the 2.0T engine I'll likely have to find my next ride with a new brand.

[@TactikewlRN]

I had really hoped that with the new v6 coming in the Pilot there would be hope for a return of the v6 in the accord. Have a 2017 Touring, I just LOVE that v6!

Good review, but they didn't say anything about the sound system.

Hey R C. Try the hybrid power train. Super zippy and super sippy. We get 45+ mpg and pass anything we need including a lot of gas stations. With the safety features it is a Highway devouring machine! 2019 Red Hybrid Accord Touring.

[@rc1298]

@@zeus5544332211 Thanks for the input Kevin. I'll certainly give the new Accord hybrid a try as my 3 previous Accords have been great all around reliable performers. And I'm sure the hybrid will have a bit of get up & go but I really doubt it'll come close to the V-6 I have now or the current gen 2.0T. My Accords have really been a bit of a compromise for me as is since I previously owned a 240Z, Rx-7 and Rx-7 Turbo, so you can see I do like some zip in my cars. The Accords were more practical, handle pretty well and still have some oompf with the V-6 engines.

@@rc1298 I'm clinging onto my V6 2017 Accord Coupe. I just hope someday Honda brings back the coupe body style and offers an all-electric or V6 Accord again...

I was a kid but in 1976 we were celebrating the Bicentennial. Everything on TV had the theme of our 200 anniversary as a nation. Think how heavy TV used to take the Olympics but on every stinking channel and TV show. “The Bicentennial Minute”was where they would take a break from the show and school us on our independence. People graduating are often had a red white and blue tassel on their graduation cap. Red, white and blue was everywhere.

[@abhishekdhiman1157]

From the front and side profile it almost looks like my 2014 Ford Fusion. Love the design!

[@HewroPreez]

I owned the honda clarity for some time and I have to say that I much prefer the gear selector on that car FAR over the lever selector found in increasingly less vehicles. Worth diving into, but the TL;DR is the button placement on the clarity gear selector is very intuitive and requires no looking to know which gear/mode you've selected, and has the added benefit of being unobstrusive

[@phileasler5401]

Wow it looks like the Dino 🦕 juicer accord from last century!

[@jordan57100]

Rear seats do fold down. If you slow down the video there are two levers to pull in the trunk toward the top in the inside. Like my civic. Reference 4:34.

[@CPMUNSEY]

Should’ve left the 2.0T and 10 speed in it from previous model.

[@gimne]

It’s in the acura.

[@msawyer110]

Yep

[@mlosuno402]

4:48 The levers to fold down the back seats were in the trunk along the top of the opening

[@ronladuke7235]

I would definitely want the 17inch wheel, can’t stand the big rims with low profile tires!

exactly, hit a large pot hole and you are out $1k+

[@richcampbell6808]

Said no one ever .

[@bradleyschmidt2075]

Agree with those saying dropping the 2.0t and the 10 speed is probably a mistake. I also can’t get over the amount of slab hanging in front of the front tires…

[@craig2100]

Great new looks... can't wait to see the new model in person

[@mjmatthews2297]

Honda Seat release for the rear row, is in the trunk. Two pull handles, both sides along the top of the trunk opening

[@cecilotto504]

The wheels look great an the body looks awesome but the front end gives me Mazda vibes.

[@chln5052]

My thoughts exactly

[@FaeezHendricks]

The rear lights draw your attention to the honda logo. Very intentional. Its awesome.

[@numbandnotvibingrn6641]

The car looks clean and all, I love the rear, but the front is literally a mustang with some angular tweaks done. The 2023 Civic front looks more like an Accord than the new Accord does. small gripe aside, less angles means more here, and makes the car look all the more handsome, too many edges makes the car too....edgy(pun intended)(if one can count it as a pun lol), So I'm glad Honda went that direction in design.

[@BrawndoQC]

"Literally", not sure you know how that word works. Not a fan of this car at all but I had a new gen GT350 and it looked nothing like that.

[@numbandnotvibingrn6641]

@@BrawndoQC apologies, the 2023 accord front looks alot like the Dark Horse model Mustang. That's what I meant lol (edit, just the 2024 mustang)

Very nice Honda!!! Love the interior design, very Audi like !!I hope they have improved the sound insulation inside!!! Good job 👍🏻👏👏👏

[@PrPaPeCECE20]

Why I feel the previous one looks much better.

[@yippie6862]

If it kept the 2.0T engine and offered AWD I would consider buying one. As it is I will pass.

[@CitAllHearItAll]

Get an Acura TLX. Has both of those.

[@iggibars]

How do you guys not see the fold-down seat pull in the trunk? That's one of they key areas where those pull handles are located in many cars...

[@MoNoK15]

I want to know what the new Ridgeline will look like 🤔

[@robertfrost1683]

the new pilot which is a good thing

[@BS-zg7dn]

Love my 2020 Ridgeline (they fixed the missing volume knob in 2021) I have had to unexpectedly do a lot of 180-mile roundtrips for doctor visits and fuel economy could be better (please a hybrid?). But it is such a comfortable highway cruiser. I had 2014 and then 2017 Accord Coupes both were great but the Ridgeline is awesome. But maybe this Accord Hybrid will be the best of them all? It certainly looks sharp and in typical Honda fashion, the interior is very usable and uncluttered.

[@mustafaawan1778]

to fold the rear seats it's in the trunk if you open it and look at the top left and right you will see a seat pic after you see it you just have to pull it to let the seats down

[@davidnavarro6786]

Did they bring the CVT transmission back? I love the ten gear transmission. I hope they have options !

[@luism8612]

Pretty sure this will use a ecvt kinda like a direct drive gear

[@ciello___8307]

Its the same as the previous car. Cvt for 1.5 then the direct drive for the hybrid
