Best Honda Accord


2016 Honda Accord
Critics praise the refreshed 2016 Honda Accord for its comfortable seats, poised ride and responsive CVT, and it also gets good fuel economy for the class.
Performance Summary
The 2016 Honda Accord comes standard with a four-cylinder engine that reviewers report has sufficient power for climbing hills and driving at high speed. They note that models with the optional V6 feel quicker. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, and an automatic is available. Critics agree the available transmission (CVT) in four-cylinder models is especially responsive, and some think it's one of the best CVTs available.
According to the EPA, the base Accord with an automatic transmission will get up to 27/37 mpg city/highway, which is good for the class. Thanks to its retuned steering and suspension, auto journalists feel the Accord has a composed ride and good steering feedback.
Interior Summary
Test drivers write the Accord has a well-designed interior built with high-quality materials. They appreciate the new infotainment system's smartphone-like controls and easy setup. Critics report that the Accord's seats are comfortable.
The Accord comes standard with Bluetooth, a USB port, a rearview camera, dual-zone automatic climate control and an infotainment system. Features like a premium audio system, satellite radio, HD Radio, a power moonroof, navigation and an upgraded infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are optional. The Accord sedan's trunk is average-sized for the class, and reviewers are pleased with the new available split-folding rear seat, which they say improves the trunk's versatility.
So it is with the Accord. It's a car designed to cheerfully trudge through life's inanities without complaint, day in and day out. And the 2016 model does everything just a little bit better than its predecessor. It rides slightly better. It's got more connectivity, if that's what you're after. The coupe remains the best-looking car in its class, and the Sport sedan is fun to wind up when the roads open up. Whether or not you think you want the Accord, you've got to respect it -- and at some point, maybe 50,000 or 100,000 headache-free miles into the deal, we bet you'll have come to really appreciate it.
