Buttery smooth ride `
Was initially sceptical about this car due to the high price, CVT, and tiny 1.5l engine. Having driven 2 CVT cars previously, I would liken the experience of CVT acceleration to having someone strap a huge rubber band around your waist and asking you to run forward. You sweat and grunt and put in a lot of effort but keep getting pulled back from running to your full potential. However, I was blown away by the drive in the latest Accord. Here, the CVT is used to create a buttery smooth acceleration. No revving dramas at all. Acceleration is not lacking by any means, and combined with the cushy ride and quiet interior, the normally aggressive and sporty driver in me was immediately tamed. I turned into a calm Camry uncle behind the wheel of this car and didn't wish to drive on the Sport mode which the car comes with. That is probably a good thing as well, as if you do actually want to drive it in a sporty manner, body roll will kill your vibe. The BMW 3 series or Mazda 6 2.5l handle much better round the corners. This is where the current Accord will not resonate with the Euro R gangster drivers from not too distant history. Moving on to the interior space - huge is the word. It is luxuriously appointed as well, although the sunroof sits a bit too close to the heads of taller drivers. There is also tons of helpful tech, such as the camera view of the left side whenever you signal left, wireless charging for your mobile, etc. Etc. Unfortunately, Kah Motors specced it without auto parking, which would have been useful when lending this large and expensive car to family members who do not drive often. All in all, this is a luxury (not sporty) car that will impress even driving enthusiasts. It probably will cost more than an Audi A4 on discount (which happens several times yearly so don't pay full MSRP for those, but I digress) so it's not cheap. But it's of properly good quality and will probably not break down as much. Plus you can pay "Cheap Honda" Maintenance for it. Why not?

The Best Honda Accord I have driven. `
The smoothest 1.5T car I have driven. Very good handling and adequate power for its size. Loads of tech features.

Honda the brand you can trust. `
A pity this latest model is not a good looker as compared to previous editions. However looking below the bonnet will always make you smile. Personally the gem in a Honda is always the engine and for those who have driven or sat in a Honda powered by their VTEC technology will not forget the kick when VTEC kicks in. Even till today, the legendary S2000 is still pretty much alive and kicking many other newer models A**. A pity Honda is now into turbo charging their engine as well. You do save on road tax with a smaller cc turbo engine but the VTEC feel is no longer the same. Nevertheless without the good old roar of the VTEC, the Accord have matured into a great and comfortable family car.

Great Ride with Lotsa Features to Die For `
Being away from home for an extended period driving a Jeep Grand Cherokee, I really missed the robustness and sturdiness of my Jeep especially during those severe weather and winter months. Bought this beauty on National Day 2020. Was pleasantly surprised at what this 10th Gen Honda Accord throws at me with its wonderful sensing technologies which parallels the likes of the North American equivalent.
