      Hondas have a thing where when u shift the paddles they still go in auto and shift themselves.

      Not really. Less gears mean less braking points and less shifting through gears which saves time. 10 speeds are meant for fuel economy and highway cruising not speed. If more gears meant going faster F1 cars or dragstar would have had 20 gears.

      ​@@RAAUUULLLL4268 There is some truth in this. But after all, a large number of gears also contributes to faster acceleration, because each subsequent gear is already at the peak of power and it is easier for the engine to spin it up to the next one

    @Blank00 Před 2 lety +7

    To be fair, even though this Accord would smoke a Camry, Honda never intended for the Accord 2.0 to be winning all races. Otherwise, this car would've been called the Accord SI or Accord Type R. Similar to how a Camry XSE is not called the "Camry TRD line", the Accord Sport is not even called "SI line" or "Type R line". You're comparing something never meant to be performance against something that is meant to be performance. Meanwhile, Fusion Sport was meant to be performance because this was during a time when Ford had a different leadership than Ford today. Back then, they intended Sport to be the performance because the previous management, unlike today's Ford management, thought that calling it "ST" would be out of place. The reason why today, Fords that would've been called Sport are now called ST and they now use "Sport" for either a looks package or a smaller version of a car is because Ford has new management. For example, the Edge ST that came out in 2019 was just a rebranding of the Edge Sport because the 2019 Edge ST is mechanically the same as the 2018 Edge Sport. The Accord is great for what Honda intended, and the Fusion was great for what Ford's previous management intended.

    • @MyShawn82
      @MyShawn82 Před 2 lety

      The Fusion Sport was never meant to be a performance car. The Ford Performance division never touched it. When this vehicle came out, there were Focus STs, Focus RS, Fiesta STs, GT350, etc. Those were molded by Ford Performance: brakes, suspension, tires etc. The Fusion Sport literally has the 2.7 and a transmission that’s able to handle it and that’s it. Just like the Accord.

    Ford had built a really really balanced car with the Fusion SPORT. The problem was all the other Fusion's which made up the majority of the fusion sales were garbage, and most people thought the fusion was just that. Ford should have only EVER offered the Fusion in the sport model. Also these Fusion sports were really expensive like $55,000, at that point its hard not to start looking at BMW etc.... If Ford would have only sold the Fusion sport model not the other models and at a slightly cheaper sticker price, you'd have a whole bunch of moded Fusion Sports embarrasing a lot of way more expensive cars out on the streets today. However mayby its a good thing, because there are not many of these sleeper Fusion Sports on the road which sorta adds a cool factor I guess.

      The interior is actually great in them . The fusions were very well built .

I do agree with you on the transmission , but it was only a let down when trying to do quarter mile times which no one ever does with a fusion . The fusion with the 2.7tt v6 is a family car with extra power. They were also very quiet.
      Only let down id say when comparing it against the camry or accords was the reliability. Plus the fusion came with awd first and if you want a camry with awd it has to be 2021+ and can only get it in hybrid with a 4 cylinder while the accord still doesn't offer awd. Im still a honda fan boy but the 2013-2019 fusions were very well built. They felt well insulated with great NVH materials

    The honda Accord has no chance honda needs to build something better thats their performance. Sedan Ford did a much better performance, Sedan

    Great race Sam! I knew the accord would get smoked. Those cars don’t have much top end

      @@plavnyphotography9871 eh not so much. Majority of their power is still made down low and in mid range with a tune and it drops off hard up top. Main reason being 7th gear in the 10speed makes it a dog. Anything after 120 in a 10 speed, tuned or not is just slow. If you want top end you gotta go type r turbo or MHI stage 2. My 2.0 accord is a fun to do pulls in on my stage 2 and 3 flash but it’s not great up top, turbo is too small.

    Wow... its funny how I see videos of the Accord 2.0T blowing away Mustards on a Race track. And now the Ford Fusion 2.7T blowing away an Accord 2.0T? Doesn't make sense. Either this guys can't drive or they're trying to make Ford bring back the Fusion.
