Honda Accord, I believe everyone here is familiar with this car. As the mainstream consumers in the market in recent years are mostly young consumers, the appearance of the current Honda Accord is easier to please the aesthetics of young consumers. So is the Honda Accord worth buying? Let’s chat about this issue.
First is the price. The current price range of Honda Accord is 169,800-259,800 yuan. Within this price range, consumers can choose from many models. For example, Volkswagen Passat, Magotan , Toyota Camry, Asia Dragon , Nissan Teana and so on. To be honest, the sales of these models are not bad compared to the Accord , and they even have advantages that the Honda Accord does not have. However, the Honda Accord's value retention rate for second-hand cars can be said to be the highest in its class, so some consumers choose Honda Accord for the value retention rate.
The Honda Accord in the article is the 2022 260TURBO Magic Night Premium Edition , with a guide price of 202,800 yuan. Appearance is in the eye of the beholder, so I won’t make any unnecessary comments here. We might as well focus on the interior. As a joint venture mid-size sedan with a retail price of more than 200,000 yuan, the interior materials of this Honda Accord are neither excellent nor cheap. The door panels, steering wheel, and seats are all wrapped in leather materials, showing a good texture. However, all accessible parts of the central control area are made of hard plastic, and the interior of the glove box is not covered with flocking, so the details need to be upgraded.
The instrument panel adopts a semi-liquid crystal and semi-mechanical structure. Fortunately, the display functions are relatively rich. To be honest, even the Camry and Avalon are equipped with full LCD instrument panels. As a best-selling model, the Accord is a bit out of date. Compared with the previous generation, the current Honda Accord's vehicle system has been upgraded. The screen size is 10.25 inches, and it is equipped with the latest Honda Connect car-machine interconnection system. The map navigation uses Amap map, the online radio station uses Himalaya , and the music playback software uses QQ Music . At the mobile phone interconnection level, it supports CarLife of Baidu , but it does not support Apple CarPlay. Although it is a bit of a fly in the ointment, the functionality of current car machines can meet daily use needs.
is relatively rich in configuration. After all, this car can be regarded as the second-highest configuration of the 1.5T fuel version. Functions such as front/rear parking radar, reversing imaging, full-speed adaptive cruise, L2 level driving assistance, automatic parking , and openable panoramic sunroof are all available. Although the main and passenger seats support electric adjustment, they are not equipped with a seat heating function, and the passenger seat is not equipped with a boss button. This is insufficient compared with competing products of the same level and price.
The rear seating space of the Honda Accord is very spacious in its class. The body length, width and height are 4906/1862/1449mm, and the wheelbase length is 2830mm. The author, who is 178cm tall, has almost three punches of legroom when sitting in the back row. The ceiling is designed to be concave, so there is a large margin of headroom. The middle floor is not raised high, which is better than the Passat and Magotan. Passengers sitting in the middle will not feel uncomfortable.
The front windows are made of double-layer laminated glass, and the car has active noise reduction. Functionally, compared with the old model, the sound insulation and quietness of the current Honda Accord have been improved. But then again, since we want to optimize the sound insulation effect, why is the rear window glass still a single-layer structure? If the rear windows are also equipped with double-layer laminated glass , the sound insulation effect will be even better!
Finally, let’s talk about power. The Honda Accord we tested this time is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 143kW (194Ps). The maximum torque of is 260N·m. The transmission is equipped with a CVT continuously variable gearbox. The actual 0-100km/h acceleration time measured by understands car emperor is 8.28 seconds. This result is not inferior to the competing 2.0T models.In actual driving, you can feel that the initial response of the power is relatively rapid, and then accelerating in the middle and later stages. Although the pushing feeling is not as obvious as the 2.0T model, the entire overtaking process is relatively easy, and the CVT gearbox allows the entire power output The performance is very linear. The NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is 6.5L/100km, and the actual fuel consumption measured by Dianchedi is 6.26L/100km, and 92# gasoline can be added, which reduces the later vehicle cost to a certain extent.
The chassis suspension is equipped with a front MacPherson/rear multi-link independent suspension structure. The overall performance of the chassis is relatively compact and does not show a loose feeling. The overall adjustment of the suspension is relatively balanced. When the vehicle body rolls significantly, you can feel the support of the suspension and there is no loss of control.
Overall, the advantages of the current Honda Accord are its youthful and sporty appearance, relatively spacious interior space, and its powerful engine that also takes into account low fuel economy. Of course, shortcomings exist objectively. For example, the comfort configuration is not as rich as competing models. Even if the front windows use double-layer glass, the sound insulation still needs to be improved. Regarding the Honda Accord, if you have any questions or comments, you can leave them in the comment area.
