The Honda Accord was launched in 1977 as a step up for buyers who wanted a larger vehicle than the strong-selling Honda Civic. While originally launched as a three-door hatchback, the four-door sedan arrived in 1979 with a slightly larger and more powerful engine. Through the following three generations, the Honda Accord grew larger and more sporty with angular styling until the fifth-gen version changed course with a greater focus on comfort. A wagon version was available for generations four and five. The sedan received its first V6 engine with the fifth generation in 1994.
The evolution of the Honda Accord
An all-new Honda Accord arrived in 1998 with more space inside. The V6 version boasted 200 horsepower, which increased to 240 with the seventh generation in 2003 while a hybrid version was introduced in 2005. The eighth-generation Honda Accord grew once again and was classed as a full-size car while delivering better fuel economy than its predecessor. The ninth generation launched in 2013 with a new sport variant boasting a six-speed manual transmission as standard. This was short-lived, as the tenth-generation Honda Accord did away with the manual and V6 engine, though handling was greatly improved with weight reduced through the use of aluminum and high-strength steel. The eleventh-generation Honda Accord launches in 2023.
