    See i understand brands are trying to go electric but omg this seems slow. The 2.0L was so much better than this engine. It doesnt sound very imposing either. its very natural which some folks make prefer. I usually like new generations of a vehicle better than the old gen but this is an exception. its nice for what it is but the camry sells are gonna sky rock.

      You got that right. The interior of the Camry looks dated, but from a performance standpoint, the Camry now kicks the Accords butt with respect to performance. What a shame - it never had to happen.

      Did you see the note on the graphic put up saying rough road? Interior noise between competing cars can only be compared on the same stretch of road under similar conditions. I just got our '23 Touring and it is much much quieter than the outgoing generation. I once rented a 1.5T Sport, drove it 3000 painful miles. The tire noise was awful. Like my '23 Touring, it had the 19" wheels and tires. No comparison between the two.

  • @Batt44us

    A reviewer of this car when lamenting the loss of a 2.0T engine said, “Everything that isn’t all out performance is turning into an appliance. At least this is a good appliance”
    With the 2.0T model, Honda turned that "appliance" into a sort of performance family sedan. It's surprisingly quick and fun to drive - I know, I have one. With the 2.0T 10th gen Accord, Honda appears to have said, "Why not make a family sedan "fun, sporty and quick?" Now with 11th gen, Honda said, "We were just JOKING! - NO FUN FOR YOU! It's like Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown. Honda: Are you listening? - this 11th gen has gotten soundly "booed" on most forums. Using baseball parlance, The 10th gen was a home run. This 11th gen is like a weak grounder to the pitcher only for Honda to get thrown out at first. If you have done this to steer more people who want a fun family sedan to drive in the direction of Accura - that's shabby indeed!

    Honda wants to market the Accord towards the younger green minded people by going all Hybrid. I personally would not buy this car because of to many reasons to mention. But I wish Honda well with this new strategy. Lets see how the sales figures come in versus the 10th generation.

    Not an improvement. Six trim levels? Could have left 1 trim for the car enthusiast. No fog lights, no active dampers, fewer seat adjustments. Pass. I'm driving a 2021 Touring with the 2.0T. It is my 4th Accord, and last. Same price with less content. Big disappointment.

    I definitely haven’t been a big fan of the outgoing generation’s interior or exterior but Honda certainly knocked that incoming gen out of the park with all its aesthetics. The only reason I wouldn’t personally purchase one would be because of the seemingly underwhelming powertrains, but otherwise, it looks to be a great and much needed product offering in their evolving lineup.

      Wait for the new Camry design comes out it's going to walk over this Honda Accord. Toyota has so much potential to making their new Camry not only more fuel efficient( the old one is still better than the Accord) but to keep the driving sportiness in it. I think Toyota has done well with their exterior styling on all their lineup of vehicles and I don't think the Camry will be an exception.
