On Tuesday, Honda teased its completely redesigned 2023 Accord sedan, indicating that the upcoming 11th-generation version of this long-time bestseller will “bring back the excitement.”<\/p>\n
While that might sound like a strange dig at its own current product, it could be a matter of where Honda sees that excitement. Honda promises “enhanced hybrid performance” in the upcoming Accord and stated that it will include Honda’s largest touchscreen, a 12.3-inch display. A photo appeared to tease design cues carried over from the latest Civic and CR-V.<\/p>\n
The current generation of the Accord made its debut in 2018 with a more luxurious cabin, significantly improved driving and handling, and a 2.0-liter turbo-4 that replaced the previously available V-6. Manual transmissions were offered for some versions, but Honda discontinued them after 2020.<\/p>\n
Honda had already updated its Accord Hybrid’s drivability for 2021. In a test of the 2021 Accord Hybrid, we found it to be more confident in its responses, with a steady acceleration feel that we likened to electric vehicles.<\/p>\n
As reported in our review of the 2023 Honda CR-V Hybrid, the automaker has redesigned its two-motor hybrid system so that its motors are no longer on the same axis. This allows packaging advantages but, more importantly for that excitement factor, a broader torque curve and stronger acceleration response, although we’re not as keen on the artificial steps Honda added when the gasoline engine plays the role of a generator.<\/p>\n
This new arrangement bowed in the European-market Civic Hybrid and seems to be sweeping through the lineup. Honda hasn’t confirmed that the setup will also make its way to the Accord, but it’s likely.<\/p>\n
