- 2017 is a big year for the Honda Accord - this is its 40 year milestone. That's 40 years of Honda ingenuity, racing pedigree, countless awards and wins piled high. What has kept this sedan going so strongly for such a long time? Let's find out!
For the 2017 model year Honda released 7 trim levels for the sedan, excluding the Hybrid variants which add another 3. New this time around is the Sport Special Edition. This takes the standard Sport edition and adds goodies such as a black leather interior, heated front seats, red stitching and Special Edition badging.
Regardless of the trim level however, the Accord packs a punch in the family sedan segment. With a brilliantly tuned suspension coupled to engine choices both spritely and robust, precise and engaging transmissions together with a handsome exterior, it is little wonder that so many flock to Honda year after year. Few vehicles of this segment can so smoothly blend comfort, practicality and driving enjoyment so harmoniously.
Inside you will be delighted to settle into comfortable seats built for a trip to the market or across the country. With every dial, knob, button and switch within easy sight and reach there is an immediate sense of logic that sets in. Crank up Pandora through the available 360watt sound system, open the moon roof, put it in gear and drive knowing you have extreme reliability behind you!
The Honda Accord puts a smile on so many faces - you are next!

I can get a benz, BMW or audi but I choose this. This will last long and simplistic.
Interior is one of the best hands down
I have this car in black and I love it! Comfortable, fun to drive, and looks great. Cost of ownership is way less than my old infiniti
Had a dream last night i owned this car in this exact color but it had a sunroof. Hope my dream of owning one comes true one day. :)
Franklin Bolt you got it?
Sport and Sport SE doesn’t even come with a sunroof, so you were prolly dreaming about a EXL or touring lol
I did too in 2017 and I own one now 3 years later
@@Lexus0616 how is it ? Does it have apple car play ?
@@princezamani it does
"in case you wanna hold on for dear life" :) love it
Honda Accord is a beautiful car
great review, I just purchased one and boy do I love driving this car. Honda did a great job on this vehicle. I've already received compliments on how great this car looks and sounds. thanks Honda
Congrats, enjoy every bit of it - they are great to drive!
Good review bro...I've seen lots and lots and this one was very informative, yet not overwhelming..............TY
I have the 2017 sport all black and me and my wife love it!
I have this car and its so beautiful 😍
merc 241 We just hope that CVT transmission can last long.
I have the 2016 V6 Touring Silver, man I love it and I get a lot of compliments on it. I can't wait till they reveal the 2018!
The Accord is a fantastic car, I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying yours!
If anyone wants to make their new 2016 and up Honda Accord all models look like a beamer, I have done a full led light conversion on the exterior and interior. I have videos of my tutorial up as well if anyone wants those soggy yellowy halogen projectors gone as well as the other yellow lights on the entire car. Hope I was of help and hope you enjoy the new Accord!
Pawnstar 365 hey I bought the new accord it’s a upgrade from my 08 coupe only issue are the speakers suck! Have u done a upgrade on them? What installs do u recommend. I’m gonna add a subwoofer

Demon Honda Accord Sport Sedan Racing Badass
I just bought this car from them on Saturday. Can you all believe it was the color that kept it from selling? I got a killer deal!!! Grappone rocks.
Congratulations!! We're so happy that you are thrilled with your new car and how it all went. Now you can attest to our motto - We are Driven to Amaze! How do you like it?
After owning it a month I'm glad I bought it. It's similar to the 14 LX I traded in, but much nicer. Now that she's broken in a bit it's getting around 33mpg in all around driving. This is a Dr. Jekyll/Mr. Hyde car though. Meaning if you drive it responsibly, you'll get good mileage - if you drive with a leadfoot, mileage quickly dives towards the middle 20's, although with a manual it's often tempting to gun it especially when merging on the highway or taking off from a toll booth! LOL
Thanks so much for posting a review after a bit of time, that's great info for all to see!! I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying the car as well - that's our goal!
Nice video and good review
Thank you!!
Kindly make video of you eating donuts and no purging allowed afterwards. Great Accord video 7 Stars rating given.
CZcamsr007 lol you guys
I got the same car and I love my car the power is greater 🤘🏾
Congrats!!
I love this car, i have 41k miles on mine, just gas an afe cold air intake installed a few days ago. I've had a recent tune up
. I could've bought a newer accord when i bought mine in 2019, but i wanted to stay away fro. Turbo. Im disappointed with recent and current Accords. I don't like the direction the company is going
it's sharp looking car those rims make it pop
Honda please bring back "moroccan red pearl" paint on the Sport.
Great review 👌👍.
Good review.
Thanks +thomas4776, please subscribe to our channel to see a new video each week!
The scenery during the test drive is nice. Where was this video shot?
Joe Didit this was shot in a combination of the Concord and Loudon, NH areas.
Awesome 😀 😀 2017 Honda Accord Sport review.
Cute review
Nice car
But camera should n must show more details about the car not the ur face
my brother bought this car and me n my husband bought the white ones :)
Wonderful news, I hope that you all enjoy your new cars! Thanks for watching!
yah we love it . thank u :)
The only thing keeping me from this Accord is the bad sound system. Is it possible to get the dealer to put in the upgraded sound system with more speakers?
Randy, I hear you, the base system isn't grand. I haven't heard of this being done, but I'm sure with proper execution it is possible. I would contact your local dealer and speak with them about it.
Go to a local audio shop.
Can you tell if the seat on this vehicle is leather or not? I don't know what to use to clean mine, I have this vehicle, sport ~ thank you for video
very good explaining of the car I'd like to have one how much if I leased one a month I got a Chevy Malibu limited ltz
That paint looks pink i have a 2017 red elantra and it looks pink as well, now i know to never get red. it also gets dirty rly fast.
It should be 192 horsepower torque.... Anyways. It's really good for me . is there things I should be doing like maintenance? To make sure it drives and feels like new?? Please help guys . I'm not good with cars . thanks
Hey guys 😀👋🏼 question: what's usually associated with car vibration, hesitation on a lower speed and lack of force when going slow?? #honda #accord
This guy was so nervous 🤣🤣
For my accord, I want sunroof but not 19 in rim, does an EX come with manual transmission?
I totally understand, I'm right there with you. Fortunately yes! the EX is available with the same 6 speed manual transmission that I loved so much in this drive.
im glad honda offers the 6 speed in red for 17. sport special edition without sunroof !! come on 😝😝 and maybe offer the 6 cylinder?
I want one so bad.
Thanks for watching, the Accord is a fantastic sedan - especially in the form I was able to drive here. Best wishes in getting one!
Looking at buying this today... any tips for dealing with a dealership? Lol
Road noise seems very pronounced. This generation of Accord has an infamous problem of wind noise. Have you noticed anything like this?
Thank you for watching Henry! Despite me best efforts, the road noise came through significantly higher than it was in reality, I blame this on myself and not the car. Have you gotten a chance to test this gen Accord on the highway yourself?
I test drove a "16 and found the wind noise was excessive on highway. There are quite some online complaints about Accord's wind noise problem. So I was curious whether Honda has improved on their '17 or not.
Interesting observation Henry, thanks for sharing. Honestly it's something that I had not noticed. Honda is always working to improve their product, perhaps they have adjusted it.
Henry, I owned a 2014 Accord prior to buying this one. After installing the Honda splash guards yesterday, I did note that there is a lot less felt insulation in the wheel wells than the 2014, which is probably why road noise is more pronounced. That's ok, those felt liners in the rear do nothing but trap salt and moisture and rot the car out! I'd rather have the noise and some undercoating!
Если думаешь его ролик не плохим, то ставь лайк комменту)
one question, with the accord sport if there an option for navigation? Thanks for sharing your insight about the brand new Accord!
Great question Kevin, thanks for asking! Unfortunately no, the Sport is built off of the base Accord LX platform and thus only comes with that level of equipment which excludes navigation.
thanks so much for the quick response and letting me know! Love your videos, thanks again!
You are welcome, so glad you enjoy them - tell your friends!
Hey grapone could you do a test of a malibu limited ltz 2015 or 2016 and tell me what u think there's not many left
Ryan, thank you for watching our video. We will not be able to do a review on the Malibu since we do not represent the Chevrolet brand. We do represent Ford, Hyundai, Mazda, Honda and Toyota so you will continue to find our videos on those brands newest models!
just bought this car
Congratulations Sandy! I hope you have many enjoyable miles...
Sandy Demian how was the car now? Any problems?
Next time you're recording a video like this, Let's see the features in the car not the man talking.
I’m stuck between this and the ex
Any thoughts ?
Totally dependent on the equipment level you are looking for. You can get an EX with a manual transmission; it will also include smart entry/push button start, a moon roof and better audio system. The Sport includes the 19" rims from the Touring, along with a sport body kit (side sills, rear lip spoiler) but lacks the extras of the EX trim line. I personally would get the EX for its moon roof. Wheels are much easier to change out than cutting a hole in the roof.
You closed the trunk much hard which I don't like it.
Thanks for video
this or the 300s???
Informative information but plz teach your camera man to show details of the car you're reviewing instead of just videoing your face.
why some some se accord has push start button and touch screen some don't , is that option more money ?
Good question thehegt Tr. Here in the U.S. the Accord Sport does not have push button start, the touchscreen audio system or moon roof. However, our friends in Canada have all of that equipment in their Accord Sport. Seems like they made out to me!
You must go up the "EX" trim to get push button start.
thehegt Tr I'm just glad they didn't put the stupid button in the sport, but unfortunately they put it on the ex. it should be an option and not standard. I will never buy a car with a button start
I don't believe the V6 is available in the Sport trim.
First off thanks for watching @TheBruces56. You are correct, the Accord Sport sedan only comes with the 4cyl engine, the V6 is available on the EX-L and standard on the Touring. The Accord coupe is slightly different and has the V6 more widely available. Do you own an Accord yourself?
Is this confirmed ? I am thinking about getting an Accord soon but if the V6 isn't available on the sport then most likely not.
Luis, thanks for asking and yes - this is confirmed. The V6 engine is not available on the Accord Sport sedan, only the EX-L & Touring. The coupe is a different story. Hope that helps!
Really? I thought mine was v6 sport. Which is faster
how much does this car cost?
@Grappone Automotive Group One of my favorite features on most of these new cars is the break assist which can save a lot of lives. From what you were saying, the touring is above the sport. My question..is the touring the top of the line? I remember the old school EX Accords were the top back in the 90's
kbw1970 thanks for watching our Accord video. Yes, the Touring is the current top of the line. The trims are LX, Sport, Sport Special Edition, EX, EX-L and Touring. Hope that helps!
Hey Kenny, didn't see you comment way back when. Yes, the Touring is the current top of the line.
No push button start
Honda adds pushbutton start to the Accord in the EX trim level, the Sport misses out.
really, no start ignition button ?. SMH
You have a keen eye Jay. The Sport edition is built off of the base Accord LX trim level, which does not include the keyless access/start. It does have the standard keyless entry however. Keyless access/push button start comes on all Accords EX level and above, among many other features. Thanks for watching!
+Grappone Automotive Group Good review. Whats your opinion, 2017 Accord Sport 6 speed manual vs 2017 Accord Touring - which one accelerates faster? Handles better? More fun?
Thanks for the comment A Yeque. The Sport and Touring are very different versions of the same car. The Sport comes with the standard 2.4L Honda 4cyl pumping 189hp and is available with both CVT and 6 speed manual transmissions, whereas the Touring comes with the 3.5L V6 mated exclusively to a 6 speed automatic transmission. The Touring is significantly quicker having 89 more horsepower than the Sport edition. They both handle very well. Fun is subjective; for me it entails whipping the manual Sport around a windy back road. For yourself it may be the acceleration and luxury that comes with the Touring edition. Best to give both trim levels a good goings over and determine which you see yourself driving daily.
A key ????
OK probably on upper trims
Yep, a good old fashion key. The EX and up trim levels utilize the push button start/smart entry system.
2017 Honda Accord Sport and no key inside. Canadian model. 2.4 189HP
Canadian models typically have different equipment levels in each trim compared to their U.S. counterparts. You are fortunate to have the Smart Entry/Push Button Start on the Sport - wish we did here! Maybe the 2018 redesign will be better equipped.
I bought last week and I will receive next monday. I don't have a key, I have a sunroof, a touch screen for the radio (or GPS but not included) and of course several others options. Ithink, best finishes than your US model. Bizarre that the American model is less equipped than the Canadian model ... Surely the price is more expensive for me LOL. Thanks to this roadtest. I think the look, options and the agility of this car is superior of the Mazda6, Hyndai Sonata, Kia Optima, Ford Fusion or even Nissan Altima 2.5 SR. Well I choose it for the good resale price too. I got a Kia Optima 2012 and not for me anymore. The resale price is sucks LOL
You're so lucky to be skinny!
My wife has one of these cars. I HATE driving it. This car has a turning radius of a Sherman tank. You need a 3.5 lane wide road to do a U turn.
Bad car transmission and engine many problems I do not recommend it
